I'm new to CT.  While I think I may have sussed out the answer to the folloowing questions, I want to make sure I understand the product correctly.

I'm a software developer looking to build an avatar creator for kids, and to then minimally display those avatars (and maximally invoke animations on them) in a web app.  I know that CT7 used to have some kind of programmatic/javascript API, but that seems to have been decommissioned as of CT8.  It also seems that CT is now squarely in the production-tool camp, rather than in any kind of runtime space.

Are my assessments correct?  Assuming the CT7 API were capable of what I described, is that version still an option?  Any suggestions (or things I missed) on how I might undertake this with CT8?
Thanks!!

Hi...

CrazyTalk 7 did have the Interactive Plugin which allowed avatar creation for web or apps. However this was discontinued and is no longer available due to browser compatibility issues with the Unity web player. Unfortunately the latest version CrazyTalk 8 no longer supports this kind of scripting functionality.

I'm sorry I can't bring you better news.

Thanks Peter,
I figured that was going to be the answer but had to ask   With every release, major browsers are making it clear that days of browser plugins are increasingly numbered.  Exhibit A: flash.
Thanks again!
