Issue description
When GetTickCount is negative it causes the animations to throw a range check error as there picture index becomes negative.
Steps to reproduce this issue
Hard to reproduce as GetTickCount normally returns a positive number (Technically its always positive since its an Unsigned Integer but Altar use signed integers to hold and manipulate its value).

Fixed by forcing it to always be positive (Its still stored in an integer, we just make the negative part positive so the number goes from 0 to 2147483647)
