Using just the BackgroundFrames I don't believe you can have more than 0-4.

Could you provide more information about what you're trying to accomplish that requires more than the alotted number of frames?

I've found, a lot of times, I can use objects to put more animation in.

I have red text, and i want it to flash green.

I mean (letter in brackets are green):

(A)dventure game studi(o)
A(d)venture game stud(i)o
Ad(v)enture game stu(d)io
Adv(e)nture game st(u)dio
Adve(n)ture game s(t)udio
etc.

Understand?

Yes, I see what you mean.

I would suggest doing this with an animated object.

Just place the object in the middle of the screen, and then set it's view, and then start the animation.

There's no reason to do this with background frames ;)

have the text as an object, and then set the object view to the view of each letter flashing. Then animate object...
