Hi, thanks for the suggestions, however nothing has worked quite yet. I did try looking at Frogboy's themes and objects and I did not come across the effect I need. I noticed one of his called, "April Stuff" the developer suite, but it doesn't work either (actually DX claims it is corrupted and won't load it). I also tried to hunt around the DX section in clocks, misc objects and themes with no avail. I did go into DXtoys, but that's a little beyond me, though i definately didn't notice any settings that might help (though it was a good idea). Oh yea, and the Gadget theme didn't really help since the rotating cog was only an animation (but cool nonetheless), which I already know how to do.
Maybe I should expalin just a little better what I can do and what I cannot.
I have got the animations ready and set up, the image states are also done. what is left is the *comunication between the clock and these Objects, to switch Object States once each hour passes.
Also, I require a real clock object and not just using a Timer (thanks for the suggestion though, that's not my absolute backup plan). The reason is because I need the images to change every hour on-the-hour in real-time with each person's personalized time settings.
For example: at 6:00pm user time the sun will set, but at 6:00am user time it will rise again, and so on with other objects.
So I think that what I might need is a DXScript to complete the job, however I can't program it myself. I am somewhat familar with programming language, so if anyone knows where I can find something similar, or if you'd be willing to start me off in the right direction then that would be a HUGE help.
Again, thank you.
