When I try to render a flic a message appears: "Can't create flic file". TGA files render OK. To make it more interesting the problem is intermittent- occasionally it will render a flic file. Am running 3ds4 on a 90 Mhz Pentium with 32 MB . Have approx 30 MB space on uncompressed C: drive which contains swap drive. (Swap doesn't seem to be a factor) . Would appreciate your advice. (I didn't realize my original message was not thru forum-sorry). Rudy

What palette mode are you using to render the flic files? If you're using high, my guess is that you're running out of room on your C drive. It's even possible to run out of room pretty quick in medium mode if you're rendering a high-res flic (with only 30Mb of free disk space). – G

Gary, am using medium pallette and 320 x 200 res. I'll free up more space on drive and will let you know results- Rudy
