Forum ‹ General ‹ Can I use PLAYER.IO with just FLEX SDK?

[Matt McFarland]

Hi all!

PLAYER.IO looks like an amazing solution to my multiplayer needs, and I'd like to use it with Flash Develop/FLEX SDK. I was wondering if this is possible? I have no interest in using adobe CS and am very comfortable with FLEX and Flash Develop.

Thanks!

Player.IO works perfectly with flex, you can even just copy the code from the AS files of the CS5 examples.

However, when you mention it, I should probably start working on those Flash Builder / Flex examples.

How about FlashDevelop? FlashDevelop uses the FLEX SDK and is completely free to use unlike Flash Builder and CS.
Anyway, I'll check out the AS files and see what I can figure out

Any SWF compiler work... you can even use Player.IO with HaXE

is there a tutorial out there yet?
I am working with flash develop and try to run the tic tac toe demo...
the odd thing is, there are errors with some basic flash thingies (I guess, I only built two games with flixel so far) ...

Code: Select all

\src\Tile.as(21): col: 4 Error: Access of undefined property eventTarget.

flash version problem? or is there some s*** in the .fla - I am not going to install the thingie (cs?) that uses fla files...

uhh yes, the comment indicates that

Code: Select all

         //Make sure we get the event from the correct event element
         //The button is only there to give us a nice hand cursor
         eventTarget.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, handleClick)

let me guess the event element is something defined in the .fla...
