Eric Schwartz Animation List as of October, 1995 (CD-ROM release edition) Note1: My animations are created with a huge variety of software, from DeluxePaint 4 to DigiView to Disney Animation Studio. For the sake of brevity, I only name the program used to compile all graphics and sound into a final presentation. Note2- Compatibility: After some testing, I can say with some confidence that most of my animations will run on operating systems 1.2 thru 3.0, most processors, and the AGA Chipset of the A4000, A1200, and CD-32. The exceptions might be under the anims category, where the particular animplayer supplied with the animation may not work with your hardware or software setup. If this is the case, I recommend you find an ANIM-5 player that does work and replace the other player (This does not work for Moviesetter and other proprietary animations.) Compatibility with other proprietary animations and players are listed on a case by case basis later in this text file. The Memory requirement for each animation can vary from the amount stated in the list depending on your hardware and operating system setup. extra floppy or hard drives, operating systems, and system add-ons like virus-checkers and screen savers all eat up memory, so you may require more memory than the amount stated (Probably not more than 512K, hopefully). AGA chipset Amigas, such as the A4000 and A1200 and their 3.0 operating system will sometimes cause the Movieplayer program to fail, giving a "not enough memory" error, even when plenty is available. Another problem causes the animation to play back badly centered on-screen with the edges clipped. If you have an AGA machine and show these problems, try shutting down some programs and/or using the Screenmode Preferences to change the Workbench screen to a lower resolution with fewer colors (To avoid the center/clipping problem, NTSC or PAL monitor mode is best) It will usually play the animation properly after that, Although the new graphics chips in combination with the faster processors (68020 or better) will often cause some animations to run faster than they were originally intended to. For best results with older Moviesetter animations, Reboot your AGA machine holding down both mouse buttons to start it up emulating the older chipset version.

Codes: * ShareWare, Pay $5 or whatever you feel it's worth # Exclusive to the CD-ROM release. Users who buy the CD-ROM are allowed use of the animation for personal use only, and may make copies for personal backups ONLY. You may not copy or distribute this animation to other users, other formats, or recorded to print or video (except for review purposes) for six (6) months starting from the initial release of the CD-ROM containing this animation. Once the six months have elapsed, This animation can be distributed freely. users who do not obtain this animation directly from the CD-ROM release are obligated to pay a minimal Shareware fee to Eric W. Schwartz ($5 or whatever you feel an animation of this caliber is worth). Users who buy the CD-ROM can waive the shareware fee. ** Fantavision Animations sometimes do not run correctly on AGA chipset machines for an as yet unknown reason. Check your monitor and screen preferences. *** Animations created in Director 2 (such as At the Movies 2) have been reported as not working on AGA machines. A new version has been remastered for the CD-ROM release that works with the AGA chipset and Workbench 3.0 and above. **** This Hyperbook demo needs an Amiga with at least 1 meg of CHIP ram to run in full capacity, 512K Chip ram Amigas will not be able to view all the pictures from the multimedia setup. *5 AGA Chipset Amiga strongly recommended, but not required *6 The "Plight of the Artist" Animation is supplied in two versions: a two-part version in which each half can be played separately and requires six megabytes to run, or the Full version, which is played completely and requires Ten megabytes to run. LICENSE: All E.S. Productions, Aerotoons, and other Eric Schwartz animations are Copyright ©1989 thru 1995 Eric W. Schwartz. These animations are NOT, NOT! to be considered Public Domain. All animations are copyrighted but freely distributable, with a few categorized as Shareware. The animations should not be sold for much more than the price of the media and the time and energy required to copy. I also request that my permission be obtained before the animation is transferred to any other medium such as video, print, or computer formats other than Amiga(such as Mac,Unix,or MS-DOS). Characters that I have created, such as Amy the Squirrel, Clarisse Cat, and Flip the Frog are Copyright © 1995 Eric W. Schwartz. Do NOT use these characters in your own works unless you are willing to accept the consequences. I might not sue you for creating a work using my characters, but then again I might, especially if I consider the work particularly vulgar (Back from the Beach) or insulting to myself or my characters. At the very least, if your mind is made up to use my characters despite my pleas, for GOD'S SAKE TRY DRAWING THEM YOURSELF! I'm more impressed by people that show skill rather than cut-and-paste abilities. These anims are available all over but there are only two officially ordained distributors.(ones I fully approve of) Any distributor on this list, or one who receives my anims from one of these sources is O.K. in my book, otherwise I cannot confirm quality or SAFETY (I do my best to stay virus-free) of the animations. I do not mind free distribution of my anims as long as no one makes their own claim to my work.
