I've never used this option 'for real' (always dump my anims to tape in
realtime from RAM), but ScalaMM200 onwards has a hardisk playback option.
You have to convert the anim to a special format on the built-in AnimLab
for better performance. Tried it a coupla times just to see if it worked
on my A4000/040/IDE HDs and it did, albeit playback was jerky on high
delta anims. The faster your HD, the better, of course...
