[osflash] [ARP][CAKE] My success history

[Marcelo de Moraes Serpa]

Well, it has been only a couple of days since I´ve put this version online. This application was a major rewritting of my old system (which was based mostly on the timeline and was a total mess, I just couldn´t understand anything I´ve done when I saw the code some days ago). This one was done using ARP and ARPX (Grant´s e Christopher ones). I´ve also used Pixlib and the excellent Fuse + ZigoEngine for all the animations (tweens). Other tools/libraries I used were: LuminicBox log API (FlashInspector), XRay. FlashDevelop as the IDE for coding, Flash IDE the IDE for designs and of course, mtasc to compile.

At the server side, what really boosted my productivity and gave me a whole new horizon was the use of the excellent CakePHP framework. I modeled my application server in Cake and made it talk to flash through CakeAMFPHP (thanks gwoo!). Now, I have the possibility of making a AJAX/HTML front-end without major troubles if I want.

It´s far from perfect. I´m the only person involved (from graphics design to programming to making the coffee :D ) There are many bugs and things that could be improved, and that´s why I´m gently asking you to visit it and give me your oppinions, suggestions, bug reports, any feedback is appreciated!

I would really like to thanks all the OSFlash/FlashCoders buddies for all the help they gave me. Also, all the cool guys at #cakephp, you are awesome! Thanks Aral for ARP, Nicolas for MTASC... and the list goes on! Thank you OSFLASH.

Now, I gotta focus on the evolution! I have so many ideas and most importat - good tools to achieve them!

Thanks,

Marcelo Serpa.
