VBS2 Fusion Released
VBS2Fusion heralds a new wave of VBS2 development. It provides developers with a true VBS2 API for the very first time, allowing them to add significant functionality to VBS2 without learning the VBS2 scripting language. The C++ API provides a simplistic Object-Oriented framework allowing the developer to programmatically monitor and modify VBS2 entities. The API facilitates a rich degree of control over objects, entities, groups, triggers, waypoints and the VBS2 environment. VBS2Fusion is the essential tool for any development team considering tailoring VBS2.
VBS2Fusion transforms VBS2 into a true simulation platform, allowing bespoke applications to be developed which leverage the power of the VBS2 virtual environemnt, graphics capability and simulation engine.
VBS2Fusion is an add-on module that is sold separately to VBS2. VBS2Fusion will be released in several phases, with Version 1.0 to be released in May 2009. The initial version of VBS2Fusion abstracts the VBS2 Application Scripting Interface (ASI) and is designed to allow developers to influence VBS2 scenarios during run time.
Version 2.0, due for release in November 2009, will add a range of additional features such as direct access to the VBS2 simulation core (removing the need to access the scripting layer, or ASI, entirely) and also the means to control the complete VBS2 character skeleton externally.
VBS2Fusion is developed by SimCentric Technologies, a close partner of Bohemia Interactive. SimCentric offers professional and affordable support services for customers seeking to employ or fund updates to VBS2Fusion.
