Convert a file to FLC

To convert other file formats to the "FLIC Animation File" file type, you need software like Autodesk Animator Pro or a similar tool.


About FLC files

The .FLC file format is a legacy FLIC animation file created by Autodesk for its Autodesk Animator Pro software. It was heavily used in 1990s DOS-based computer games for pre-rendered cutscenes and 2D animations.

You can open these files using classic media players like VLC media player or specialized emulation software, but native support in modern operating systems is virtually non-existent today.

You need to convert this file because .FLC is an obsolete, proprietary format. It relies on an 8-bit color palette (maximum 256 colors) and an outdated delta compression method. Modern web browsers, smartphones, and video editing suites cannot read it. It also lacks standard embedded audio support, making it useless for modern multimedia projects.

For web sharing and modern playback, convert to MP4. If you want to preserve the retro palette-based animation style for web pages, convert to GIF. For efficient web video embedding, convert to WEBM. Just drag and drop your file here to analyze and convert it - free, online, and without installing software.

Use Convert.Guru to open and convert your FLC file.
