Flash is 3d now with open source plugins, so I would personally use that for simpler 3d work due flash being on most computers.

What is the director interface like for 3d now? I tried it years ago as a demo when it first came out I found it fiddly, Ill try the new demo when I have time.

I dont think that it matters that much to have concerns for corporate sector and as such.




Not so. I used to work for a multimedia development firm. We had clients such as Coke and other big name companies. They would come in and request web site development and would often want things developed in Flash (thus, needing Shockwave) and often for real-time 3D content display on the web. This was often to display some product in a 3D format that allowed the end-user to rotate and zoom in/out on the product. Each of these formats, at the time, required a plugin to be downloaded and installed on the end-users PC. So the corporate sector very much matters in this. In fact, Director will most likely be used more for the corporate sector than just about anything else (as has always been the case).

Support for more than 40 video, audio, and image file formats
Native 3D rendering with DirectX 9 support
Advanced physics with the included AGEIA™ PhysX™ engine
Support for Adobe Flash CS3 Professional software and video created with Flash
Unicode support, including multimode publishing
Enhanced text rendering engine
Enhanced user interface
Enhanced Script Browser and full JavaScript support
Bitmap filters
Xtra plug-ins






These features are supported by Director 11. A dx9 engine is a real boost for web technology. And if web pages are designed around the shockwave3d then ultimately everybody has to embrace it. It is certainly going to change the web scenario in coming months. And yes, it all depends upon us, Developers, who are going to create content for the web.

Well incase anyone in uk is interested and i checked on amazon, seems in UK price is around £800 which is ok I guess when you consider the fees you could charge for multi platform and online work.

It would be nice if there is a 30 days demo, Ill definitely give it a go.
