...and then if you really want to get your teeth into it for some serious

Director/ Flash power buy "Lingo Sorcery (The Magic of Lists, Objects and

Intelligent Agents)" by PETER SMALL, 1996 Wiley Press... and wrapp your head

around the paradigm shift of OOP in director.  I have noticed that using

flash cast members is very processor intensive for director, it helps to

alleviate processor activity by residing scripted objects in RAM where

things tend to run faster.   I probably have an older copy of the book, (

for back in the days of Director 4/5 )  but the concepts haven't changed

even for Director 8.


my 2 cents
