AssetLoader vs UnifiedLoader?

[Gilbi]

At first I thought they were the same project, then I thought they weren't, then I went back and forth a couple more times...

I know that fleecie created Unified Loader, but what about AssetLoader? Which one should I use?

AssetLoader is part of the StartupManager utility, which has a quite a bit more functionality.

UnifiedLoader is a separate project that is merely a different take on the loading problem. It is in the queue to be added to the PureMVC.org repository, but I haven't gotten to it yet.

hey, NarfTurd (nice name) :~)
the confusion may also have come about through the fact that I originally called my UnifiedLoader AssetLoader, but changed the name so that people wouldn't get confused....
can't win, eh?

Sorry about the name, I didn't put too much thought into it at the time.... now changed.
I think what really confused me was that you originally used a similar package naming structure. I ended up not touching it because it is currently only multicore and I haven't gotten that far in my learning yet. BulkLoader (although functional) is frustrating me and AssetLoader I have already given up on so I may end up coming back to the Unified Loader at some point for my InitMonitor.
