I'm planning for my own use a sprite engine that includes buffering, dirty
rectangle calculations, parallax scrolling, span algebra, and
run-length-encoded (RLE) sprites with some space saving tweaks. I'm
programming in C/C++ for the Mac with perhaps some MC680X0 or PPC
assembly. Anyone who has any experience with this or similar problems and
would like to make suggestions based upon that experience, I would love to
hear them. If you program another platform or language, don't let that
stop you from responding to platform or language independent issues.
Please reply via e-mail if possible. Thank you for your time, interest,
and suggestions.

                      TTFN,
                        Gordon Henriksen

You should try the Animation Class Library V2.1:

This C++ Library supports: buffering, dirty rectangle, tilemap scrolling (parallax 
scrolling is not supported yet), encoded sprite, real time collision checking at pixel 
precision, sprite control. Also it includes a complete multimedia frameworks which 
supports sound, display and a lot more... You can find a demo on CodeWarrior CD7.

For more informations send me an e-mail.
