more parsets that render improperly in xfractint
by Richard 17 Sep '10

17 Sep '10

I'm not sure what the common denominator is here. I'm scraping through Roger's old parsets and rendering them in xfractint and a few of them have come up as black (or white) screens or get an error. Attached are the ones I've had problems with so far... 09-April [Fractint] Resampling,complexity compounded 18-April [Fractint] (no subject) 21-April [Fractint] Subject No Subject (fractal noise) and the Droste Effect 22-April [Fractint] Fmod Coloring 25-April [Fractint] A bug with bugs 06-May [Fractint] Techno! -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline" -- DirectX 9 draft available for download <http://legalizeadulthood.wordpress.com/the-direct3d-graphics-pipeline/> Legalize Adulthood! <http://legalizeadulthood.wordpress.com>

Latest version of FractInt
by Mike Frazier 15 Sep '10

15 Sep '10

Let me introduce myself. I am Mike Frazier the programmer of Fracton. I wrote Fracton before I knew about FractInt. Then when I saw what a great resource all of those tens of thousands of par files are I decided to try to add FractInt par file import/export to Fracton. I always started by programming to the documentation. If that wasn't enough then I looked at the FractInt code. If that didn't work then I used test images until I got Fracton to generate the same image that FractInt generated. At no time did I ever copy any code from FractInt to Fracton. Just in case anyone was wondering. I have been able to find version 20.04p04 of the FractInt code but I can't find p09. Could someone please tell me how to find the latest version. Thanks, Mike Frazier www.fracton.org

I also get a black screen in my Windows port, so this is starting to look like another case where the DOS and Xfractint code bases are rendering differently. Not sure what's causing it... -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline" -- DirectX 9 draft available for download <http://legalizeadulthood.wordpress.com/the-direct3d-graphics-pipeline/> Legalize Adulthood! <http://legalizeadulthood.wordpress.com>

Does anyone else get a black image when rendering the parset at <http://maxitersfractalfollies.blogspot.com/2010/04/fractal-noise.html> in xfractint? -- "The Direct3D Graphics Pipeline" -- DirectX 9 draft available for download <http://legalizeadulthood.wordpress.com/the-direct3d-graphics-pipeline/> Legalize Adulthood! <http://legalizeadulthood.wordpress.com>
