Hello, I am now using AAPLAY.DLL in my C++ program to play FLC in Windows. Someone told me that AAPLAY.DLL is unable to handle transparency, i.e. I can't display a 256 color picture at the back and play a 256 color FLC on top of it (both color table same), the background will cover by the FLC. However, some other people told me it is possible to do this, with the SetBkMode and careful design the palette. I try several setting and not success. I would like to ask has anyone success before and give me hints on it ? Thanks. Regds LAM Chi-fung
