3D basics overview
Macromedia Director 8.5 Shockwave Studio brings robust, high-performance 3D to the Web. Director 8.5 allows you to develop a wide spectrum of 3D productions, ranging from simple text handling to interactive product demonstrations to complete immersive game environments. Using Macromedia's free Shockwave Player 8.5, users can view your work on the Web with Netscape Navigator, Microsoft Internet Explorer, or other Shockwave-supported browsers.
Director 8.5 lets you detect the capabilities of the user's system and adjust playback demands accordingly. A powerful machine with 3D hardware acceleration brings the best results, but users can successfully use Director 8.5 movies on most Macintosh or Windows hardware platforms. The faster the image processing, the better the results. The ability to adjust for client-side processing power makes Director 8.5 ideal for Web delivery.
