Animations
Each animation is preceded by the offset of the next animation stored as a DWORD, along with an animation number. Reading the animation and advancing the file pointer should result in the file pointer being the same as the next animation offset. An animation number >= 50 marks the end of the animations section. When this occurs, the next animation offset is set to the offset of the current animation.
