Werner and Walter Randelshofe have a website, part of which is dedicated to Deluxe Paint Animation (and equivalents across MS-DOS, Amiga, and Atari ST platforms). A whole heap of files are there to be browsed, sorted by platform and artist. It’s really quite the treasure-trove 🙂
But best of all, on their site they have downloadable viewers and web applets for playing these program’s file formats directly!
The ANIMApplet plays Amiga IFF ANIM files using a Quicktime-style embedded video player.
Features:
- Plays files of type IFF ANIM, IFF ANIM+SLA, IFF ANIM+ANFI, IFF ILBM, IFF PBM
- Supports all Amiga display modes (OCS, ECS and AGA)
- Supports Amiga 4 channel stereo sound (requires Java 1.3 or above)
- CRNG and DRNG color cycling
- Supports discrete and blended (soft) CRNG cycling
- QuickTime-like user interface
- ANIM files can be zipped to reduce loading time
MS-DOS .ANM files would need to be converted to IFF ANIM format to play, of course. And there’s still the Windows Media Player codec for playing these DOS files.
