PrateekSaxena 1 Posted March 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 Should I read from the documentation from Macromedia?what is Flex 2.0?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
iyeru42 0 Posted March 23, 2007 Report Share Posted March 23, 2007 If you don't know what Flex is, chances are you don't need it. If you plan to make just flash movies with your actionscript, then don't worry about either Flex of Flash Lite. By the way Prateek, if you have Flash MX+, the Reference right-click can help you a lot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

iyeru42 0 Posted March 24, 2007 Report Share Posted March 24, 2007 You don't need Flex to make games. Flash files are fine. In fact, I bet you don't even know what SWF means. Well, even if you do:ShockwaveFlash Quote Link to post Share on other sites

astralaaron 17 Posted March 26, 2007 Report Share Posted March 26, 2007 Just wondering, why not go with flash 8 professional? over flashMX Quote Link to post Share on other sites
iyeru42 0 Posted March 26, 2007 Report Share Posted March 26, 2007 Just wondering, why not go with flash 8 professional? over flashMXI didn't have Flash 8 until later in life, so I had to go years without it due to money issues. So it could be the same problem. By the way, Macromedia no longer is in existence, and Adobe has no plans on re-making Flash 8 for use in Creative Suite, hence why the Macromedia Suite is still high priced.
