ihavent tried pixlib yet, but as for ARP, you'll get more "mvc" with a few extensions to the original arp package. There a few different versions of a ModelLocator out there (the official ARP release doesn't have a model implementation -- the commands queried a view for information to be passed to the server, then returned some information back to the view), and there's also the extensions found here: http://theresidentalien.typepad.com/ginormous/2005/10/extending_arp.html

hello ! pixlib isn't targeted on games devt for a while, maybe till the beginning. It's got an architectural framework inside too (mvc, frontcontroller, hashcode factory, moviecliphelper, modellocator ...) + lot of features (collections, xml, flv, sound, preloading, remoting package with no mx dependencies ...). try it for the fun! ;) francis ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jamie S" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Flashcoders mailing list" <flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com> Sent: Monday, November 06, 2006 4:09 PM Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] Q:Framework ARP vs PixLib >I have been using the ARP Framework for a while and I can recommend it > highly.
