I was referring to projectors. As far as Director itself, I don't recall, but I know you couldn't make a 32-bit projector until D5, I think. I don't know... it was a long time ago! :)
I don't know if Director itself was EVER 16-bit. I meant the projectors.

Before that it was only 32 bit. Perhaps it was to save two >bytes that it was stored as 16 bits and not 32 bits.
