FWsim - Simple Show Planning and Visualization

[Lukas (FWsim)]

Hi everyone,

I'm Lukas from FWsim, based in Austria, and we are proud to be sponsoring Pyrotalk.

Our main product, FWsim Pro (https://fwsim.com/pro), is a show planning and visualization software that's designed to be easy to use, simple, and fast. It is currently used by companies in 40 countries. FWsim runs on most Windows computers, as long as they are less than 10 years old. It is also possible to run FWsim on Mac through a workaround (https://www.fwsim.com/fwsim_on_mac.html).

Here's an overview of FWsim Pro:

The trailer below highlights the new graphics update that will be released with FWsim Pro 3.5, coming soon. Note that the trailer is meant for our hobbyist audience, so it is just a collage of nice shows and does not go into the planning & export functionality of the software.

In this thread we will post updates occasionally. We're also available for any questions. A free trial of FWsim Pro (https://fwsim.com/pro) is available.

Not sure how many members have tried this program. If you have any questions or comments , now would be a good time to post them.

I use the basic version. Might be upgrading to the pro soon. It's really good for the price. Still finding out about things that pro has that the basic doesn't but Lukas is constantly replying to users on his fwsim forum. I have used Finale too so I do know the differences between the two. With everything in fireworks getting more pricey to put on pro shows, this program is priced well for all the features it provides. A bit of a learning curve but nothing that can't be figured out with some time and questions to his forum. I think the product editor is better than finale for dialing in multiple break effects.
