Paris, Wednesday, July 24, 2024, SimLab Soft launched version 12.1 of SimLab Composer, bringing significant improvements and new features to optimize the creation of 3D and VR content. This update promises to make workflows smoother and more personalized for users.
SimLab Composer is a comprehensive 3D visualization solution that allows you to create, share, and experience interactive VR scenes. With the release of version 12.1, SimLab Soft continues to enhance its capabilities, making it easier to organize variables, manage cloud data, and automate processes through LUA scripting.
New Features in SimLab Composer 12.1
1. Variable Ordering
With the new variable ordering feature, it becomes easier to keep variables organized. By accessing the variable list, users can now sort and select the necessary variables in the Training Builder through various categories. This improvement helps maintain an orderly work environment, even with a large number of variables.
2. Cloud Data Storage for Users and Experiences
SimLab 12.1 introduces new cloud attribute response nodes, enhancing data management. By adding a string attribute or retrieving user IDs and setting node-triggered events within the dynamic Builder, this attribute allows for storing information related to both scenes and users in the cloud. Consequently, when a scene is run again, it can retrieve information based on previously saved data, ensuring a seamless and personalized user experience.
3. LUA Scripting Support
SimLab Composer 12.1 now integrates an API offering methods and classes for creating custom LUA scripts. This functionality allows users to develop tailored solutions to meet their specific needs, thereby increasing creativity and innovation in VR projects. The LUA scripting language is known for its simplicity and efficiency, enabling even beginners to write scripts for automating repetitive tasks, managing complex interactions, or integrating external data via APIs.
