Wow! Director really was (and still is) great for multimedia style
animations (and for scripting the creation/editing of images) but boy am I
glad we no longer use it here as our main development tool. I recently had
to revisit a project I developed in Director in about 2002 and the
workarounds I had to use at the time to get it to work properly (involving
LDMs) were truly horrible - so much so that I can no longer even understand
them.
