An alternative to Director? After looking at
www.gamespace.com, and hundreds of
role playing games. I would have to say anything but Director. Although
Director *would have been ideal*. The thought makes my stomach sick as I know
that Director/Shockwave's install base is less and less. With the claim of it
being the number one 3D render on the web (many calling BS on this one) I would
have to now say *its less and less likely to be Director* and definately not
AIR. For a role playing game in 3D I would have to point to custom, and in
most cases, platform dependent software written in either C++, or a scripting
like ECMA Script language coupled with a library like Orgre3D or Unity3D. For
standalone development its clear that there are dozens of development
environments from DarkBASIC to Torque, and the list goes on. Director, for
me, holds a special place in my heart as being one the first languages I picked
up (Lingo). Coupled with a familiarity, its a natural bias. Its just sad that
its also a misguided, isolated, and lost one...
