Jonathan, Using your new 2017-10-01 version of your SDL2 Fractint and your disk video mode I calculated a humdrum M-set fractal at your: "53510, 40132, 256, Largest .75 aspect ratio" which, when it finally finished, weighs in at over 300 MB. However, I couldn't immediately find any program on my Win 10 computer that could open it, including PhotoShop ver 12.1 X64 and Adobe Fireworks CS5. I restarted your SDL2 Fractint and it did open and read the image in, showing this screen: http://tinyurl.com/Restore-completed or: http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/Fractint/Restore_completed.jpg The fractal in the above image looks like it might be the default Fractint startup M-set with the color map of the restored image. Immediately after the giant restore, I changed the image resolution and calculated a 640x480 version of the restored image. It looks like the correct location and color map of the original image: http://tinyurl.com/640x480-calcd-aftr-big-restore or: http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/Fractint/640x480-calcd-after-big-restore.jpg which pretty well matches the original image: http://tinyurl.com/Fractint-writing-line-n or: http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/Fractint/writing_line_%7Bn%7D.jpg I enjoyed using <Enter> and <,> and <.> in <c> Color Map mode, although I did once crash SDL2 Fractint using those keys. Unfortunately, I'm not able to reproduce the circumstances and report them to you. It's possible that I may have given the program a keystroke it was not expecting to have to handle in whatever state/mode the Color Map code was in at the time... - Hal Lane ######################## # hallane@earthlink.net ######################## -----Original Message----- From: Fractint [mailto:fractint-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Jonathan Osuch Sent: Sunday, October 1, 2017 9:52 AM To: Fractint and General Fractals Discussion <fractint@mailman.xmission.com> Subject: Re: [Fractint] Update to SDL version Folks, I've updated the SDL port to support color cycling. The color editor still doesn't work. I added disk video modes for the largest sizes supported to the end of fractint.cfg. If you want to be able to run them more than once before having to restart Fractint, assign them to key codes (like AF6 & AF7). I am working on fixing this. https://fractint.net/ftp/experimental/SDL2-fractint-20.05alpha-2017-10- 01.zip or the directory: https://fractint.net/ftp/experimental/ Jonathan _______________________________________________ Fractint mailing list Fractint@mailman.xmission.com https://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus
