Hello, Nik. It seems you're right that the problem is driver-related. I'm running a #9 TIGA board at 1536×1152 resolution. There are 2 drivers: a 256-color and a true-color (16-bit at this res) and I had tried both–at various lower resolutions as well–and the problem was the same, so I had initially discounted a relationship. But when I tried the FLC using the 16-color VGA driver, the animation, though ugly, played without leaving trails and dropping in the frame. This problem doesn't occur with 320×200 FLIs. In fact, a 256-color FLIC that changes palette every frame plays smoothly in 16-bit color mode. (In 256-color mode it only does about 2 frames/second max.) I still find it odd that single-stepping the FLC works fine, but letting it run doesn't. But I've been trying through to #9 tech support anyway, as CorelDRAW crashes the 16-bit TC driver. So I guess it's time to lay another track on their message tape. Thanks for the reply. David Perrell
