Running FRACTINT in Windows 10
by Harold Lane 03 Mar '19

03 Mar '19

Mark, Bud, If you are trying to install and run DOS Fractint Ver 20.04 in Windows 10, that's not going to work as is. You have a few options to run DOS Fractint or a Windows-compatible Fractint-type program in Windows 10: Run DOS Fractint "wrapped" in other software environments compatible with Windows 10 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------- - Install a virtual environment in Windows 10 -- like Oracle's free VirtualBox; then Install Windows XP in your virtual machine; then install DOS Fractint in Win XP. - You could also try running DOS Fractint in a version of DOSBox (running in Windows 10.) Quite a few people like this combination. Tim Wegner recommends the DOSBox Daum version of DOSBox. Windows-compatible Fractint-type programs ----------------------------------------------------------- - You could try Richard's Windows 10 version of Fractint, now called: "Iterated Dynamics" (although he states that it's not for general distribution). It has some features that have not been fully developed. I've used it a tremendous amount -- with a few work-arounds - I also don't use all of its features. Its interface is effectively DOS Fractint's. - You could try Jonathan Osuch's FractSDL Windows version of Fractint, which is also "still in development." It is a very serviceable version -- also with an interface that's essentially DOS Fractint's. Running DOS Fractint in a DOSBox or under Windows XP in VirtualBox give you the original Fractint. I have links and some info on the above options. - Hal Lane ######################## # hallane(a)earthlink.net ######################## -----Original Message----- From: Fractint <fractint-bounces(a)mailman.xmission.com> On Behalf Of mchris(a)value.net - Webmail Sent: Friday, March 1, 2019 3:36 PM To: Fractint and General Fractals Discussion <fractint(a)mailman.xmission.com> Subject: Re: [Fractint] FRACTINT Not quite sure how to install this.

sound implementation
by Bill Jemison 02 Mar '19

02 Mar '19

Does anyone know which of the many different versions of fractint going around have full implementation of the sound features that are in the DOS versions? I use DOSBox SVN-Daum to run fractint v.20.04.14 and all the sound features work as expected, but I was wondering if any of the other versions have sound working?

Sirs: Fractint's son ManpWIN (www.deleeuw.com.au/) can do fractals and much more under Windows 10. Besides Fractals, Oscillators (more than 1000) can also be found. Explanation of all these can be found in its Help File. Our mathematical interference in Oscillators' realm are being proficous to produce more than 3,000,000 attractors - sensu largo. Visit us.
