FinalBit v3.17.0 - Enhanced Real-Time Multi-User Collaboration & Version History

FinalBit v3.17.0 transforms pre-production from siloed PDFs and FDX into a live, collaborative workspace. Co-edit script breakdowns, budgets, schedules, and storyboards simultaneously with your entire crew—now backed by full user attribution and named edit history.

Unified pre-production workspace graphic highlighting integrated film budgeting, script breakdowns, stripboard scheduling, and storyboards.

🛠️ What’s New in the Editor

  • Named Multi-User Revision History:
    • Previous Limitations: History logs only displayed your own local changes, leaving edits by other crew members completely unnamed.
    • Now: View a full, time-stamped audit trail showing the exact name and role attached to every edit across your team.
  • High-Performance Live Co-Editing:
    • Co-edit 120+ page scripts, stripboards, and budgets simultaneously with zero lag or file lockouts.
    • Stop emailing PDF v2/v3 revisions. Everyone works on the same live project draft.
  • Sub-Second Auto-Sync:
    • Script modifications automatically update your breakdown tags, day-out-of-days, storyboards, and budget sheets across every connected device.
  • One-Click Draft Restoration:
    • Compare script revisions side-by-side and restore earlier project states without overwriting active crew work

🎬 Crew Workflow Impact

  • Line Producers & UPMs: End the mystery of untracked budget changes. Hover over any line item to see who changed a cost and when.
  • 1st ADs & Script Supervisors: Tag scene elements live during table reads while stripboard schedules update automatically for all department heads.
  • Directors & Producers: Review storyboard changes and shot lists remotely with HODs using clear version tracking.
