If you've decided that the existing Director artwork can be made smaller by

redoing those pixel-based maps to vector art, then you can use those new

Flash assets within Director itself. This gives you the hi-fi audio

streaming and interactive control.


(The Flash Asset Xtra has been bundled with the default Director/Shockwave

download for the last half year. There's also a technote page for the

standalone Xtra's installation, if your audience last updated their browser

in late '97.)
