I need a windows screensaver which plays FLCs and AAS files. The SSFLIC in the Libs is a perfect example of what I need – it plugs into the screensaver slot in the Windows Control Panel and works beautifully. The problem is that it's a demo version and the registered version won't arrive in time. It's for a "one-off" CD-ROM project that will be used in a kiosk. If anyone knows of any facsimilies to the SSFLIC program that can be "owned" or "registered" within a few days, I'd be most gratefull !! — James — Choreo Motion —

James, we have developed a screen saver software than can play FLIs and FLCs. No background color changing, no password and other fancy stuff like animation parameter editing. It just loads an animation called SAVER.FLI/.FLC into memory and plays it. If there is not enough memory it plays it directly from disk. The program is mainly designed for a screen saver to be installed from floppy disk with as much space as possible for the animation on a single disk. Therefore a small 45k setup program and a demo.exe is included within the package. The saver.scr is also only 17k. This might not be what you need. However I could upload it to you ASAP. Package price is $199. Regards Stefan Absolute Software GmbH (Developers of RayMan)

Stefan, I apprecaite your help, but I have found an alternate solution in a freeware screensaver. However, feel free to e-mail or snail-mail me information on your software. I may have a need for commercial distribution on a project in the future. Thanks again. — James — Choreo Motion —
