Amazon.com

When a book calls itself a "bible," it usually raises skeptical eyebrows. However, the Director 7 and Lingo Bible, written by a trio of experienced and notable multimedia developers, fulfills its promise and shows an enlightened path to getting the most from Macromedia's multimedia development environment.

The book shows you everything from the basics of Director (starting with installation, setting preferences, and the user interface) through making finished Director movies for CD-ROM and Web delivery. Along the way, it demonstrates all of the features available in Director 7, including Lingo, OOP programming, Behaviors, and of course all the Director basics.

The book is more than a tutorial for Director. The most important chapters may be 9 and 10, which cover multimedia presentation and production methodologies from a Director developer's point of view. In chapter 9, "Creating an Interactive Presentation," the book explains the reasons and methods for creating a handsome and accessible interface. And in chapter 10, "Designing a Production Process," it discusses strategies for evaluating the scope of a project such as laying it out as a flowchart to help determine the amount of work involved. These are important issues that all developers face and beginners often overcome only after stumbling.

One of the best things about this book is that its entire contents are included on an accompanying CD-ROM in Adobe Acrobat format. Think about it: a huge reference volume like this, online, and at your fingertips. You can even copy and paste the Lingo examples from the PDF pages right into your project.

Overall, the book is a good value for beginners and intermediate users alike with its real-world examples and practical advice on making the most of Director 7. --Mike Caputo

The format and tone of this book are geared for beginners, but it contains solid shortcuts and clean Lingo code that will benefit intermediate and advanced.

The Lingo section is clearly written and presents concepts in a well-planned sequence, but the type size and leading are so large that it's difficult to find specific information and there's relatively little actual content on each page. The authors provide powerful custom handlers but they don't differentiate them from built-in Lingo. Related Lingo appears on tables in appropriate sections, but it's usually necessary to get back into the reading stream in order to find the right code or syntax. The index references topics and subtopics, but no Lingo directly.

The book promotes poor design with its main tutorial project, an amateurish sci-fi scene with a badly designed user interface and 3D graphics that look dated already. If you're think about this for a course in professional interactive design, consider others.

Unlike other reviewers, I find that D7 Demystified is ultimately easier to use. It's easier to compartmentalize than D7 & Lingo Bible, and it's an excellent reference. This book does present better programming concepts, but its linear approach drastically reduces its usefulness.

I have both this book and Director 7 Demystified. They both have their strengths and weaknesses but if I had to choose one out of the two, I would definitely go with the Director 7 and Lingo Bible. It has more real-world examples and techniques than Demystified and is much easier to read. In fact, it was my initial frustration with the Demystified book that lead me to search for a better one.

I just finished my first real Lingo project about a week ago. The project required an undetermined number of sprites to be created and used and thus I needed to use objects to create and control sprites. Although Demystified goes into Object Oriented Programming, it stops short of explaining how to apply it to dynamically creating sprites (as would be required for any game-type application). The Bible, on the other hand, was clear and precise about this and led me to finally understand OOP and how to control sprites using OOP in Director.

Demystified is not a bad book, don't get me wrong: It is huge and has lots of information in it. I just find that the Bible constantly has the answers I'm looking for as I work on real-world applications whereas Demystified, in spite of it's size, frequently doesn't.

I got a complaint...
This guy wrote a damn good book, but I do have one complaint. Sorry folks, but I got really sick and tired of that darned lander that was in most of the examples.
