Fusion 4.0 or 5.0?
At this time the Developers version and SDK are only available for Fusion 4.0. A developers version of Fusion 5.0 will be made available in the near future. Please send any questions you may have about the Fusion 5.0 SDK and Developer version to .

What Is The Developers Version?
In order to make development and testing of plugin tools for Digital Fusion even easier, eyeon Software is pleased to provide a developers version of Fusion. The Developers Version is a cut down version of our software that provides limited file loading and saving. No other image processing abilities from the Fusion toolset have been included. You can use this version to load and test your plug-ins in Fusion, without requiring a full license of the software.

The Development Version of Digital Fusion is licensed for plug-in development only. It may not be used to produce final images for use in television, print, film, multimedia or web based mediums. You may only use this software for the purpose of developing and testing plug-ins with the native Digital Fusion SDK, AE Plug-ins through our plugin adapter, or via the OpenFX plugin SDK.

Obtaining A License
If you are interested in downloading the Developer Version of Fusion, you will need to supply the hard disk serial number from your primary drive. This version of Digital Fusion is locked directly to this serial number, instead of the usual HASP dongle. You can find this serial number when you first launch Fusion Developer Version, or alternatively you can use the following method:
  1. Click on Start -> Run.
  2. Type in cmd.exe and press OK.
  3. Change directories to your primary C drive (cd c:\).
  4. Type in dir and press enter.
  5. You should see the Disk Serial Number listed at the top of the directory output, as shown below

Obtaining A Developer ID
If you intend to write your own native plugins for Fusion, you will need a copy of the Fusion SDK, and your own Developer ID. The Developer ID is used when compiling your plugins to identify your tools and ensure that they do not conflict with plugins from other developers. A developer ID is not required if you are developing plugins using the Adobe After Effects SDK or the OFX API.

In order to compile plugins for Fusion you MUST be using Visual Studio 6 with SP5 (or SP4) and the Processor Pack. Visual Studio .NET and Visual Studio .NET 2003 are not supported.
Please note: To access your Developer ID, you must be logged into your registration account. Should you require a user account, please click here to create one.
Getting Assistance
The public mailing list at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dfsdk/  consists of other users of the Fusion API, as well as members of eyeon's development team. We would recommend that you ask any questions about the SDK here first. If the question consists of information you are not comfortable sharing in a public forum, you can e-mail your question to for assistance.
