- I had the same problem with scenery animator (wanted to combine anim
- brushes generated with Imagine onto lo res 32 colour scenery anims).
-
- The problem i found was that the IFF files were described to Dpaint (I use
- described because I don't pretend to understand the innards of IFF) as
- being higher res than they really were.
-
- For example, the 368x256 res files had a page size of 768x256, even though
- the image was really smaller. The only way I overcame it was to drop
- scenery anim back to a lesser overscan mode, and it worked. I suppose you
- could try adpro, it might save them in a more intelligent way.
