Is there a library or DLL for Windows that can play FLC files? If not, is there source code around that demonstrates playing a FLC file (in DOS or anywhere)? Thanks, -Ray

"Is there a library or DLL for Windows that can play FLC files? If not, is there source code around that demonstrates playing a FLC file (in DOS or anywhere)?" There is WINPLA.EXE which includes AAPLAY.DLL and an installation routine. Also, check out the following (there are several references along this line, by the way): File Info for FLIC.ZIP Section: Autodesk Animator Contributer: 70421,76 Size: 37067 Submitted: 16-Feb-94 Type: Binary Accesses: 399 Title: The Flic File Format Keys: FLIC FLI AUTODESK ANIMATOR ANIMATION KENT C READFLIC DDJ DOBBS Complete system as described by Jim Kent in his article on the Flic file format in the March 93 issue of Dr. Dobb's Journal.
