You didn't show that in your original sample.  Please provide more complete,
compilable, examples in the future.

Why not?

How did you create the DLL to begin with?

Yes.  You don't have direct access to the DLL's HINSTANCE when statically
linking.  Unless you use GetModuleHandle(), but I haven't tried that with
static custom DLLs myself before.  Should work, though.

In any case, you're passing NULL to GetModuleHandle() when you should be
passing the DLL's actual filename instead.  As previously mentioned, when
passing NULL to GetModuleHandle(), the returned HINSTANCE will be for the
application itself, not the DLL.  But your resources reside in the DLL, so
you need the DLL's HINSTANCE instead.  Just because you statically link does
not negate the fact that the resources are still stored in an external file,
not the application.  You do not statically link to the DLL directly, but
instead only to its .lib file, which provides a means for the compiler to
resolve address references to the DLL's functions and such, nothing else.
The DLL itself is not put into the application directly.

Sounds like you need to use a separate dedicated thread instead and don't
use messages at all, just track the keyboard directly for changes and update
your animation accordingly.
