".FLC or .FLI files into .EXE format" File Info for BLDSV.ZIP Section: What's New! Contributer: 76546,1321 Size: 21572 Submitted: 07-Apr-94 Type: Binary Accesses: 99 Title: Dave's Self-Viewing Flic Builder, Rel. 1.0.2 Keys: DFV DTA FLIC FLI FLC FLH FLT FLX PLAYER EXE Converts a flic animation file (FLI, FLC, and DTA's variants FLH and FLT) to an executable program by appending it to a special version of the DFV flic-player. The player requires VESA for all flics greater than 320×200 in resolution. The player continuously reads the flic from playing, so you could get some disk-churning if you don't use a cache. This version fixes a few bugs. Shareware by David K. Mason (Approximate download time at 2400 bps using CIS B: 1:12)

Hello Nik .. I have just asked DKM if there are any software packages that will allow me to control my animations with the keyboard or joystick…do you know of any? What i mean to ask is is there any thing that will allow me to control where and how fast my camera goes with the joystick..? Also, This is kinda off the subj but Does everyone get to read my messages…? Thanks! James… 74323,2776

Don't know what happened to my response yesterday – I can't see it! "is there any thing that will allow me to control where and how fast my camera goes with the joystick..? Also, This is kinda off the subj but Does everyone get to read my messages…" Everyone gets to read your messages, but apparently that's not true for mine! <grin> And, no, I don't know of a joystick-controllable camera movement. This is something you can see in games so it can be done. Sounds like a Cyberspace Developer's Kit thing. Nik
