iScen is a tool dedicated primarily to the security and education sectors, for training, mission preparation and crisis simulation. It is also aimed at Serious Gaming companies. This tool allows the creation or rapid prototyping of interactive scenarios, and then to use them in networked and multiplayer simulation sessions. The editor part has an easy to use interface, which allows the quick and efficient implementation of any type of scenario. It is possible to integrate 2D and 3D multimedia content, texts, as well as internet links.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The iScen interface has been designed to be accessible to everyone. It is not necessary to have any programming knowledge to run and control a session. The scenarios are created from an intuitive interface, and with your own images, sounds, videos, 3D objects… If you don’t want to create the scenarios yourself, but only use them, Eversim can create them from your specifications and on estimate. For more information, see this page<\/a><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

To create a scenario, the designer starts by defining the graphic environments. These can be photographs, videos or 3D models representing the places in which the action will actually take place, maps (extracted from Google Maps, for example), satellite views or 3D scenes. These environments constitute the places of action. Participants will be able to move from one location to another during the session. The designer then defines the actors of the scenario: the different roles\/characters that the participants will play during the training session. These actors can be represented by icons, photos, counters, 3D objects. The designer also adds all the objects involved in the scenario: images, videos, sounds, 3D objects, text… Finally, the designer determines the tree structure of the scenario (its “storyline”) by adding all the steps, branches, possible choices, and key points that characterize the action. for an easy learning process, iScen offers several tutorials and examples of simple scenarios available in video on this page<\/a><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

During the realization phase, the designer can instantly test the scenario at any time by simply clicking on the “Play” icon. It can play the role of all the actors in the scenario, and thus verify the functioning of all the branches and conditions.<\/p>\n

A scenario can easily be modified: in order to adapt it to a new similar project, it can be reworked to change the visuals, add or remove steps, objects, participants’ roles…<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The sessions allowing to replay a scenario with all the participants take place in network: in local network (wifi or ethernet) or via internet. Each participant is connected to the session on a PC, or tablet or smartphone on which he will see the actions and visuals that concern him.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
