I did some stuff with Director in 1998-9 while I worked at the United
Arab Emirates University
in Al Ain, U.A.E. churning out gap-fill with exerciese that all got
censored because half of my
imagery was judged "unIslamic" (the coding was more diffcult than
Toolbook which I was
also using at the same time); but I made some awesome animation games
for my children and their
friends.
Yes, Klaus, is right about both the scripting and the animation.
Let's hope that the animation in LiveCode . . .
Richmond.

I can’t find any announcements from Adobe, and the article doesn’t provide
links.
there is in fact a link to an ADOBE blog:
<https://blogs.adobe.com/creativecloud/the-future-of-adobe-contribute-director-and-shockwave/>
I have been using Director for years, its animation possibilities were AWESOME,
wish we had (a fraction of) this in LC,
but scripting was a real pain in the arse!
I never regretted my switch to MetaCard in 1999! ;-)
The logic in the article is a bit dumb. They say that Mac shockwave support is
going to end, and so naturally they would get rid of the tool that makes
shockwave content. But shockwave is only one part of what Director is good for.
Anyway, I’ll keep trying to find an Adobe post about it.
