mTropolis, that was it... I think.  Did you own it?  Do you own it?

Voyager had it, and did one CD-ROM using it (not done by me). That was Fun With Architecture, and mTropolis was chosen because the program needed to have a lot of building pieces on screen at once, and Director was limited to 48 at the time. I used it for some prototyping, I also entered the competition they had before it was released, where you had to create a project in a save-disabled version of the program, and send that in (try to work that out!). I won a tee- shirt for my entry. I only know of two other commercial CD-ROMs done with it, Muppet Treasure Island, and Obsidian, both of which were impressive.

I'm not sure what Quark had at the time that was competitive, but there was something, hence buying and killing the competition. This was all pre-OS X, so although I have copies kicking around, I can't easily run it. I'm not even sure it ran in OS 9. I'll try at work some time.
