Sorry guys i have been making quite a few threads latley .

I was considering using flixel to create a game seeing as i really need the performance and ive always preferred rater to vector anyway So i was wondering what would be better to use ?
Flex builder or flash develop ?

Its going to require a lot of work to transition which is why i want to pick the right one to start with.

Thanks guys !

I don't know much about Flex Builder but I can say that

Flex Builder: 249$
Flash Develop: Free

Also, I use Flash Develop and I think it's great. Many times better then the action panel in the Flash IDE. You'll probably find that it's better and stick with it even when not using flixel.

Flashdevelop is fine. Start doing it.
Don't waste time waiting for people to answer your threads when you could get into it and find everything out yourself. Otherwise you're making excuses to delay yourself while you post the thread.

Flex builder is more for application development specifically whereas flashDevelop is just general purpose coding.

FD is free though...
