Anyone have more ideas, the window is a good one, but seeams but i found they wont work for me. Has anyone ever did some thing? I dont need the code, just the idea.

Code: typedef struct 2DENT { void somestuff; PANEL* thePan; BMAP** images; //this one stores every images needed for the animation int bmpIndex; //and this one holds the index of the current image it is using. } 2DENT; Now I change the image of the panel by incrementing bmpIndex and giving the image with the index of bmpIndex to the panel every few frames, while animating. greetings K-Duke Using A7 Free Click and join the 3dgs irc community!

As BMAP* already are pointers one need to have a pointer to an array of BMAP* pointers. Your animation has 30 images for example. Then you would have to have 30 BMAPs, well or only one BMAP varName[30]. And as said an array can be accessed by it's pointer address. And to the other question... yeah I load the bmaps at runtime. greetings K-Duke Using A7 Free Click and join the 3dgs irc community! Room: #3dgs
