	%X This paper describes a proposed support system which
enables applications designers to effectively create VR applications
using multiple haptic APIs. When the VR designers create
applications, it is often difficult to handle and understand many
parameters and functions that have to be set in the application program
using documentation manuals only. This complication may disrupt
creative imagination and result in inefficient coding. So, we proposed
the support application which improved the efficiency of VR
applications development and provided the interactive components of
confirmation of operations with haptic sense previously.
In this paper, we describe improvements of our former proposed
support application, which was applicable to multiple APIs and haptic
devices, and evaluate the new application by having participants
complete VR program. Results from a preliminary experiment suggest
that our application facilitates creation of VR applications.
