FIRE

Home / Products / FLAMES Engine / FIRE

Execute FLAMES scenarios in batch mode.

The FLAMES® Interactive Runtime Executable (FIRE™) is an application that, like FORGE™, can be used to execute FLAMES scenarios. Unlike FORGE, FIRE executes in batch mode and contains no graphics or built-in user interface. As such, there are many operations that you can perform with FORGE that are not supported by FIRE. However, the converse is also true. There are some important features of FLAMES that are available only when a scenario is executed using FIRE.

Whether you use FORGE or FIRE to execute your scenarios depends on your particular needs. The following side-by-side comparison of FORGE and FIRE will help you decide which application to use.

FeatureSupported by
FIRE

Built-in graphical interface to control players during scenario executionNoYes
Scenario creation and editingNoYes
Built-in scenario visualizationNoYes

Customizing FIRE

Use the FLAMES Developer to customize FIRE to satisfy your specific modeling and simulation requirements. You can add new components, add custom data recorders, and much more. Place your custom software in a FLAMES component plug-in, and FIRE will automatically recognize it and use it as a fully integrated part of the application.
