A command-line tool used to compile and decompile Flic Animation files (.FLH) from LEGO Rock Raiders. Programmed in C++, released under the Apache-2.0 License, source code included. Originally posted to Rock Raiders United.

Usage

FlicTool is a command line program, which means you have to open a command prompt and run it from there.

The application accepts two arguments, input and output.

Example:

FlicTool input_file.flh output_directory

This would decompile the FLH file input_file.flh and place the individual frames in output_directory. The application will automatically detect that input_file.flh is a Flic Animation file, and will then try to decompile it.

Inversely, it is also possible to write

FlicTool input_directory output_file.flh

which would take all the frames found in input_directory and combine them to create output_file.flh. (Frames are recognized by looking for BMP files with names matching frame####.bmp where #### is the zero-padded frame number, starting with 0001)

If you leave out the output file/directory name, it will be assumed to be output.flh when compiling, and output when decompiling.
