virtual pc

[Rizdguy webforumsuser@macromedia.com]

Can you use virtual pc(in OSX) to save a projector file in windows format so it will play on a windows pc?

You would need a Windows version of director, and to be honest i'm not
entirely sure that an app of that size will work in virtual pc. If you
can get director running in virtual pc then there shouldn't be any
reason why not.

hth,

regrads,

Hi Joe,

Feel free to try this, but be aware that this is not an officially supported
configuration Director MX is supported on. For full compatibility, create
your Windows projector in a supported Windows operating system. You will
also need the Windows version of Director MX to create a Windows-compatible
projector.

Best regards,

Thanks Jayem...

Please tell me Macromedia has plans to bridge this crossplatform travesty...thread after thread of people coming across the same problem, why can't i create a projector that works on both? maybe Director MX 2004 will take care of the problem?

Good day
Joe

I think the Director package will be a lot more expensive if it could export
to mac and pc in one.

I'm developing Director Applications (including projectors) using VMWare
inside of Linux myself, VMWare is a full blown virtual intel machine, that
supports whatever OS you install on it, as long as it is compatible with
your CPU (intel or AMD that is...).
It supports USB, CD-Writers, fully bridged networking, etc... It only lacks
the support of DirectX. Which in Director's case is not so much of a
problem, not even for shockwave3D since everything can be rendered in
software mode.

I prefer VMWare over VPC because it is less resource hungry and fullfills
all my needs, but VPC does have the advantage that it does emulate a low end
3D videocard and thus support for DirectX. It's even an acceptable gaming
platform for golden oldies :o) which VMWare is not.

Too bad that for Mac users there's only VPC, and even MORE BAD NEWS: VPC has
been bought recently by no less than big bad billy gates himself, so I
question the future of VPC.

To answer your question: "yes" is the answer. But you will need to install
Windows inside of VPC, and you will need to install the Windows version of
Director.

I'm in the process of testing Virtual PC on 2000pro; I'd
be interested in running it on XP to test the different 03
servers- sbs/std/enterprise/web server. For internet
access, I see the other 'PCs', need to have the MS
loopback adapter set up through the host os (got that from
the help files from VPC).
How much of a cluster will the loopback adapter cause
ISA (and Exchange to some extent)?

Hi,

I'm not sure of your question:

How much of a cluster will the loopback adapter cause
ISA (and Exchange to some extent)?

Can you re-phrase that please?

cluster=mess
Would the server be able to gain access to the net
through ISA, from the loopback adapter (would I be able to
set a static ip and etc?)

I believe so, if you set it up like this:
VPC - NIC 1 = Your NIC
VPC - NIC 2 = Loopback

Guest - NIC 1 = The internet
Guest - NIC 2 = local network

Guest2 - NIC 1 = loopback

But you really might want to try the VPC group, microsoft.public.virtualpc
