hate Lingo. But I guess what it comes down to is what you are used to.
I
love flash & hate director.
I think I am in same boat... I only think director has more to offer
when it comes to 3D.
What do you prefer using?
Flash, for sure.
Are you used to using both?
Used to be, but it has been a while since I used Director regularly...
couple years or more...
Do you need any of the plugins director gives you access to
or can flash handle everything you need to do?
Seems like Flash should be able to do it all... this should be a basic
interface, not any animation (just rollovers) and I would have it jump
to 3 or 4 different videos.
I had mentioned Flash as an option to client, but he stated that he
thought that Flash did not make graphics as crisp (I disagree).
Maybe he was not using .png's, or maybe he was compressing them badly
for other projects... But I have gotten great-looking and crisp
graphics by using .png's (mostly for transparency) and turning-off the
"allow smoothing" option for the imported bitmaps.
I think that the person who hired me is just used to Director, and I am
used to Flash... It sounds like he really wants to go the Director
route, but he is open to Flash if I can get the graphics to be crisp
and behave just like director when it comes to CD-authoring.
Anyone know of any good links to tutorials when it comes to
CD-authoring with Flash? I am more used to using flash for web... I
guess if I make it a projector (self-contained executable) then people
will not need a plugin...
Any tips, or pitfalls, I should be aware of when it comes to using
Flash for CD-authoring?
Many many thanks Jim/all,
I appreciate your input and responses.
Cheers,
Micky
