Introducing Diversion: The Future of Large Asset Management
Bone Digital, headquartered in Chiyoda, Tokyo, has recently announced the launch of Diversion, an innovative cloud-based version control tool tailored for creative teams engaged in projects involving large digital assets. This tool is ideal for those working with 3D models, textures, and video files, revolutionizing the management of extensive creative projects.
What is Diversion?
Diversion serves as a comprehensive version control system that allows users to manage binary assets and source code within a unified repository. Unlike traditional systems, this tool eliminates the need for server setup and maintenance, making it accessible for not just engineers, but also artists and designers, who can intuitively navigate the platform.
Enhancing Collaborative Production
In the realm of creating large digital assets, it's crucial to keep track of file update histories, avoid conflicts during simultaneous editing, and share information efficiently among team members. Diversion addresses these needs by providing a user-friendly graphical interface (GUI), file locking features, and seamless cloud synchronization, ultimately fostering effective collaboration among creative teams.
Key Features of Diversion
- - Integration with Unreal Engine: Diversion is compatible with UGS and Horde, allowing users to operate directly from the content browser without complications.
- - User-Friendly GUI: This desktop application supports both Windows and Mac platforms and can also be accessed via web browsers. The design ensures that non-technical members can onboard with ease, avoiding command line complexities.
- - Support for Large Assets: Diversion imposes no size limitations on individual files and can handle large repositories efficiently, with capabilities to process 400,000 file commits in under 30 seconds—perfect for managing extensive 3D models, textures, and video content.
- - File Locking Mechanism: Users receive real-time alerts when a file is being edited by another team member, which prevents editing conflicts through exclusive locking capabilities.
- - Cloud-Native Architecture: This tool requires no server installation or management. Once files are committed, they are automatically synchronized to the cloud, enabling a smooth workflow without the need for push/pull operations.
- - Migration Support: For those transitioning from existing tools, Diversion offers automated migration tools for Perforce and Git LFS, ensuring a seamless shift and parallel operation with previous environments.
