OK, objects are animated in DX with image strips; in other words, the different frames of the animation must be placed next to each other in one long image strip.
Since DX now supports alpha-blended PNGs, you don't need to make BMPs nor the grayscale transparency mask that was required then to create the alpha-blending. Just make the alpha-blended PNGs the way you're used to, and make a image strip accordingly.
