WonderWheel
by Albrecht Niekamp 22 Jan '18

22 Jan '18

A completely new Image again today. A step closer to infinity to repeat the expression Alex used yesterday. This time done with the latest MFR version so better precision, more effective coding and better formula integration. The title of WonderWheel seems justified if you take a close look at all those details, the zoom is just a first appetizer, there are hundreds of them, promised.

Exploratory zooms into Sebastien's zadntl fractal
by Harold Lane 21 Jan '18

21 Jan '18

Sebastien Helie hurt his back, although I don't know how badly. I hope these new images from his zadntl fractal will cheer him up. These are a series of zooms exploring into the parent of his zadntl fractal. I previously posted a few images from this fractal. If you have limited time, the ones I recommend viewing are marked with "///". I discovered a classic "tree" buried in this formula! Likely more than one... I'm a bit more organized with this fractal -- the name of the parameter set in the par file is the same as the name of the fractal file (gif image) it creates. The parameter sets for the images I previously posted (made with this formula) are also in the parameter file. I tried to put a brief comment in each of the parameter sets to orient it in the sequence of zooms. http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/Sebastien/S180107.par Notice that essentially all of the parameter sets in the par file have an aspect ratio ("X Magnification Factor") of 0.75 used. This compensates for a problem with Richard's version of Fractint for Windows that I use. To exactly reproduce the fractals below, you'll need to change the images X Magnification Factors in the par file to 1.0 . You can also set this in Fractint with the sequence of keystrokes: <Z> <F6> while viewing the image. There are single pixels in some of the images, which viewing them full size will preserve. http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/Sebastien/S180107H.gif is a zoom into the center figure of the parent fractal: http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/Sebastien/S180107Z.gif Zoom into H, rotated 90 degrees: http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/Sebastien/S180107J.gif Center top of J: http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/Sebastien/S180107K.gif Center top of K: http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/Sebastien/S180107L.gif /// Butterfly with evil eye patterns on its wings.

Bill, > Am I correct that if I run a par with reset=1960, that ver2004.14 > will load > the sound related info and if I immediately save a new par that the > sound related info will be reconfigured into the present par format? None of the sound related parameters show up in the backwards compatibility checking code. The two PARs should be the same. There are some possible exceptions, of course, but the sound parameters should be identical. Jonathan

Non-calculation parameters such as "printer=", "sound=", and "savename=" are not affected. RESET should be specified at the start of each parameter file entry (used with the <@> command) which defines an image, so that the entry need not describe every possible parameter - when invoked, all parameters not specifically set by the entry will have predictable values (the defaults). When you create a PAR, the reset= should have a value corresponding to the version of Fractint you are using. This is used for backwards compatibility and should be left alone unless you are trying to reproduce an effect from a specific revision of Fractint. If you load an old PAR, then create a new one from the resulting image, the reset= value will be for the current Fractint version unless there was some specific feature used that needs backwards compatibility. > 2) Has it always been the case that the view window parameter is only > recorded if it is other than the default "no"? Yes. We only record parameters that are not at their default setting. Jonathan

They are included in the archives in the FRM folder. I was thinking of you when I tried some zooming.. I´m getting dizzy and overwhelmed, there are so many interesting zoms, but like I said, you must be patient because it is rather slow due to the exorbitant complexity. Here is the link to the archives and (just one) almost maximum zoom https://1drv.ms/f/s!AmWYApv7ZBFG92Gw1sAwCFbRiqAT https://1drv.ms/f/s!AmWYApv7ZBFGgZxUvwzqa1NAwyP0jg The second link is for the 2018 Folder with new images the new image is whezo-02 Cheers, Albrecht Am 19.01.2018 um 02:23 schrieb LLOYD GARRICK: > > I'd really like to investigate some of these for animations. > > Where can I get the current "mfr.frm" and "mfr_12.frm" files? >

parameter file questions
by Bill Jemison 19 Jan '18

19 Jan '18

I have a couple of questions about par files. For the most part, I am using Fractint Version 20.04.14 via DOSBox SVN-Daum on a Win10 machine. 1) can someone explain the reset=xxxx entry? I can find no mention other than a specific reference to "reset=1920" in the docs. I am in the process of reevaluating many par files from the past audio fractal work I have done over the years, and am trying to determine the effect of various reset= entries in my pars. 2) Has it always been the case that the view window parameter is only recorded if it is other than the default "no"? This is a big problem for me because I often - but not always - use various view window settings for audio files, which often have no visual indication as to whether a view window is being used or not. I find that if the previous par had a view window used, that subsequent pars are run in a view window unless specifically reset manually to "no". It would be a great help if the view window setting could be passed even if a view window is not used. Thanks! Bill Jemison Audio Fractals <https://sites.google.com/site/audiofractals/home>

Wheel of Fate
by Albrecht Niekamp 18 Jan '18

18 Jan '18

Wheel of Fate ; A new image designed from the scratch - it is one of the most complex ones existing Good to know that at my age (77) I´m still capable of creating such things. The second one is the parent view, especially for zooming. It has the full set of formulas, 5, and all active. The basic shape , easy to see, is a Newton variation, outside and inside1 manymods, doubled for greater density. Inside 2 Bees, responsible for the many small objects, all different, and inside 3 Secant with it´s tendency to less precise but cloudy or dusty environments. There are uncountable lots of interesting zooms but not suitable for a animation as all are very slow. ; https://1drv.ms/i/s!AmWYApv7ZBFGgZxjje7CmS1Jgv7g7g ; Albrecht Wheel of Fate { ; Wheel-08 ; Newton-Mmods-Mmods-Bees-Secant ; Time 0.41.27.51 1280/1024 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=mfr.frm formulaname=multifractal_10 function=exp/exp/exp/sin passes=t center-mag=-0.0147449/2.65454e-013/2.795657/1/90/3.88578058618804789e-01\ 6 params=-0.05825983458967864/0.3785210730307932/75531.07595702022/14235.4\ 911030602/150512.0404808048/384.3204896048/384.00482000595/128.200000859\ 1/256.2000004001/512.3000008001 float=y maxiter=3071 inside=maxiter outside=tdis periodicity=0 rseed=-2436 sound=off colors=000HC0<4>A70860750<3>110wOM<3>_ECUCAO98<2>621DL5<2>350gy1<44>5805\ 70450<3>010LKWEDL76ASQN<38>432332321<3>000pO`<3>MAFF69734eFn<2>A3CJ56<3>\ 611300pUm<49>635534423<3>000VO1<15>970860650<3>110zh2<29>JD0 }
