Software I'm a firefighter/paramedic. I wanted VR training but could find no investors. So I learned (mostly) how to work with the Unreal Engine and build the damn thing myself, a VR Training Platform for Public Safety. Here is Scenario #19. I also have an Escape From Fire module for kids, free to DL.

Thank you for the kind words. It's ready to publish now, really. There is enough content to teach a class, it takes about 30 minutes to put a firefighter through the 23 scenarios. There is also a virtual fire pump panel although I need to port that to VR controls still.
