You don't understand the basics I assume. You load a sprite with LOADSPRITE, then you have a loop (WHILE or FOR or GOTO) within that loop you draw the expolsion with ROTOSPRITE. After all drawing for one frame is done, you call SHOWSCREEN and jump to the top of the loop.

Code (glbasic) Select Expand

LOADSPRITE "xy.bmp", 1

WHILE TRUE
   ROTOSPRITE 1, 100, 100, phi
   phi = phi + 1
   SHOWSCREEN
WEND

i understand that much what i said was how are u supposed to do it without the loop? how can i showscreen if all the other things dont come up?
need more complicated code than that.... its crazy....
