Updated Shockwave Released (for Vista?)

A new version of the Shockwave plug-in (for Windows) was released earlier today (now up to version 10.2.0.021). If anyone knows what is updated, please leave a comment. As was announced at the eLearning conference, it is supposed to add support for Vista.

Is MacIntel next? I hope so.

Update: Discussion on mailing lists indicates that this update made the following changes.

  • Vista support for DirectX 7 rendering of 3D members.
  • Removed registration form from install process.
  • Removed need to restart browser after install.

All are nice new features. The last one is really nice.

Shockwave for Vista Update Coming Soon

I talked about using Director in a session at the eLearning Guild 2007 Conference last week and it was announced (by Rick Jones from Adobe) that there will be an update for Vista later this month in the Shockwave Plug-in. Several sessions talked about using Director for Immersive Learning Simulations (ILS), particularly for the multiuser web-based content.

I’m keeping my fingers crossed that a MacIntel version will show up before the school year starts. At least a beta version over on Adobe Labs.

A few more thoughts from the conference later this week.
