How to make movies in star-cd....
 
I'd like to know if there's a free software to compile the pictures made inside proam, because as I know we don't have the possibility to create movies inside proam, is that right?

It will depend upon your OS. I'm on Redhat Linux & use the convert command.

My process is to create a Prostar neutral plot file. Then use the plot utility to create a series of gif files named X00???.gif. Then I issue the convert command as follows: convert -X00???.gif Movie.gif

This creates a multi-image gif file. Convert supports a range of file formats. Try doing a man on convert and a man on ImageMagick & you can see the details.

Hi,

ImageMagick is available for Unix/Linux as well as for Windows OS-s.

Regards, pp

gifmerge is also a good utility although perhaps a little old now

try whirlgif, although I am not sure if it is available for windows but then again if you use windows you deserve all you get!
