• VT MAK in Europe May 7 - (May Newsletter) MAK is a core provider of simulation technology to countries and organizations across Europe. We have a strong long-standing partner in Antycip Simulation who help customers experience the MAK Suite of simulation products locally with sales, technical support, and integration services.

• VT MAK Releases VR-Forces 4.7 May 6 - (Product Release) This major feature release adds many new features, while continuing to make significant improvements to our visuals, performance, and content.

• VT MAK Releases VR-Vantage 2.5 May 6 - (Product Release) We have continued to focus heavily on performance – to maintain smooth scenes at high frame rates even as demands for greater scene complexity and richness increase. We have also improved the overall visual experience of VR-Vantage make it easier to generate beautiful scenes, easier to configure, and easier to extend through our API.

• VT MAK releases VR-Link 5.4.1 April 29 - (Product Release) To reduce jitter for customers using asynchronous network reads in DIS, incoming PDUs are timestamped on network read. Positions are then Dead Reckoned backwards when decoded to account for time spent in the asynchronous network read queue. This change only affects Relative Timestamped PDUs. This change should reduce jitter on stable networks for fast moving entities operating in Relative Timestamp mode.
