About Adobe Shockwave Player 11?

Adobe Shockwave, previously known as Macromedia Shockwave, is a robust multimedia platform used to enhance web pages with animation and interactive content. This software enables Adobe Director applications to be distributed and accessed on the web through the Shockwave plug-in on any computer. Content is created using the Adobe Director environment, and while it supports Flash movie integration, many developers favor the Shockwave Director combination due to its advanced features and powerful tools. Notable features include a rapid rendering engine with hardware-accelerated 3D capabilities, as well as support for diverse network protocols such as Internet Relay Chat.
