Hello, Does anyone know where I can get some info on creating Anim7 & Anim8 files? I have not been able to locate any info on the specs for generating these animation file formats. I also need information on programming graphics in 3.0. Has Commodore written any new RKM books? Can I get this info anywhere else? Thanks, Warren Puziewicz

A program called viewtek (shareware) will convert anim8 and anim5's into anim7. As far as creating anims…Art department pro comes with a program called FRED (frame editor) it will allow you to turn separate picture files into anim format. Axiom software makes a program called Anim Workshop which will do the same thing. In my opinion Art department pro is a must for any serious Amiga graphics user, I cannot speak for Anim workshop, but Axiom makes a product called Pixel 3d pro, an interchange program for 3d file types. This product is absolutely fantastic. If Anim workshop is half as nice as Pix3dpro it would be worth the investment. Eric.

Eric, Thanks for the info, but I am looking for the specs of the anim7 file format, so I can write a program to read & write these file formats. Warren Puziewicz
