Source control for digital content

This article was originally published in VSJ, which is now part of Developer Fusion.
Perforce SCM 2005.1 tracks and manages source code, and now provides digital asset development for general software and game production environments.

The all-important new feature is the thumbnail viewer, which enables digital artists to see differences quickly and easily between an image they are modifying and any version of it that is stored in the Perforce repository. It already integrates with 3ds max, Photoshop, and Maya.

All major image file formats are supported, and a plug-in API is available for custom and proprietary formats.
