Flash 8 Asset Xtra in development

Hey folks, I'm just posting up a quick blog entry to let you all know that the Director team is working on a new Flash 8 Asset Xtra for both Director and the Shockwave Player. Anyone who has seen the new Flash 8 authoring or Flash Player 8 releases or heard about the new features knows there's a lot of good stuff available and as such we obviously want to make sure that those developing with Director can tap into and/or utilize those new capabilities. At this time I don't have any specific information to share about how and when the new Xtra will be available, but I at least wanted to give a heads up that we're actively under way on this effort. Stay tuned for updates...


Note, for those attending this year's MAX 2005 event please make sure to attend Mark Jonkman's Using Flash and Director Together to Produce Rich Applications session as he'll be discussing some of the new capabilities offered by this new Xtra!
