Hal, I downloaded winfract-20.04p14. It doesn't appear to have an installation script. Thanks for the recommendations! Does Richard's program use Fractint FRM, PAR, and MAP files? What sparked me to finally jump back in was that I decided to make some new Smart Phone wallpapers, and the maximum size of my images (last working in 2004) was 800x600 - hardly up to the size I would like.

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@earthlink.net ######################## -----Original Message----- From: Fractint <fractint-bounces@mailman.xmission.com> On Behalf Of mchris@value.net - Webmail Sent: Friday, March 1, 2019 3:36 PM To: Fractint and General Fractals Discussion <fractint@mailman.xmission.com> Subject: Re: [Fractint] FRACTINT Not quite sure how to install this.

Looks like latest update was 2015. Atill curious to see if it works on Win 10.

I need to get my frac on. Where can I find the latest version of Fractint for Windows? Will it run on Windows 10?
