Projectiles Advanced on Fusion 2.0

Projectiles Advanced demonstrates networking various projectile types in shooter games, balancing performance, bandwidth, and accuracy. It includes smooth rendering to align simulated and actual paths. Built as an FPS, it provides a base for game development with features like a projectile data ring buffer, different weapons, and a health system. Also, it handles predictive projectile spawning and smooth player movement, offering a comprehensive toolkit for advanced projectile handling in multiplayer environments.

BR200 is now on Fusion 2.0

The latest BR200 update introduces significant enhancements with Fusion 2.0, KCC 2.0, and Animation Controller 2.0. One of the key improvements is render-accurate shooting, ensuring precise targeting regardless of the simulation tick rate by synchronizing the server's state with the player's rendering and mouse clicks. Additionally, the update features a complete redesign of the Area of Interest (AoI) system using a new Interest Management addon, resulting in more intelligent visibility, reduced network traffic, and overall better performance.

UPDATED Fusion Golf

The Fusion Golf sample illustrates how to develop an arcade golf racing game focusing on physics with server control and client prediction. It offers session browsing, direct room code connection, customizable game settings, and an 18-hole course featuring physics-based objects like cannons and elevators. Fusion Golf, now runs on our new Physics addon and retains most original functionalities, including spectator mode, customizable player visuals, and regional options.

UPDATED Fusion Impostor

The updated Fusion Impostor now leverages Fusion 2.0's FSM Addon to more efficiently organize various game states and their corresponding scripts. By integrating Voice 2.0 and Fusion 2.0, Impostor enables you to play with up to 8 other players in a social deduction game. Its multiple gameplay modes offer a synchronized state of objects and shared interaction points, providing an inspiring and cohesive gaming experience.
