Hi All, Does anybody know where I can find the pars etc. for the above? It was in one of the Fractal Creations books some time in the distant past. Any help greatly appreciated. Paddy

You can download and try browsing through some of the collections found at this location: http://www.Nahee.com/Fractals/FractInt/
It was in one of the Fractal Creations books some time in the distant past.
First or Second Edition?? On the Disc or just printed in the book?? If in the book, color or black-white image, and what page??
Any help greatly appreciated.
The 2nd edition CD only has six image files with the characters "MAND" anywhere in their name: \DODSON\ MANDELB1.GIF MANDELB2.GIF MANDELBR.GIF \PARK\PART2\ MANDELVI.GIF \POTTER\ RED_MAND.GIF \SKINNER\PART1\ MANDL4P.GIF Sincerely, P.N.L. ------------------------------------------------- http://home.att.net/~Paul.N.Lee/PNL_Fractals.html http://www.Nahee.com/Fractals/
Hi Paul, Thanks for that, I haven't found it, but you have jogged my memory a bit. I've also turned my place upside-down and found the Second Edition CD, it's not there. That's the trouble with Cds, there's room for pics. It must have been the First Edition floppy (or was there another earlier book?). And it may have been on the cover, but definitely a colour pic inside if not. It was a 3d transform, a fantastic mountain range. Paddy

Mandel Hi Paul, Thanks for that, I haven't found it, but you have jogged my memory a bit. I've also turned my place upside-down and found the Second Edition CD, it's not there. That's the trouble with Cds, there's room for pics. It must have been the First Edition floppy (or was there another earlier book?). And it may have been on the cover, but definitely a colour pic inside if not. It was a 3d transform, a fantastic mountain range. Paddy

Does anybody know where I can find the pars etc. for the above?
You can download and try browsing through some of the collections found at this location: http://www.Nahee.com/Fractals/FractInt/
It was in one of the Fractal Creations books some time in the distant past.
First or Second Edition?? On the Disc or just printed in the book?? If in the book, color or black-white image, and what page??
Any help greatly appreciated.
The 2nd edition CD only has six image files with the characters "MAND" anywhere in their name: \DODSON\ MANDELB1.GIF MANDELB2.GIF MANDELBR.GIF \PARK\PART2\ MANDELVI.GIF \POTTER\ RED_MAND.GIF \SKINNER\PART1\ MANDL4P.GIF

Packrat that I am, I've still got both books complete with disks/CD (1st ed. German translation, however, so I don't know what has been on the cover of the US original). In the text of 1st and 2nd edition are parameter sets called MTMAND (2nd ed., page 180) and MTMAND3D (2nd ed., page 205) for heightfield image and 3d-transformation, respectively - but there's no image either in the book or the CD from these pars. What you probably have in mind is on the colour poster that came with the 1st edition, called MTROCK (by Norman L. Hills) - no parameters (that I know of) for the creation of this image. Just to be on the safe side, below are MTMAND and MTMAND3D.

Hi Gerald, I think you are right about MtRock, but I'm surprised I can remember anything from 20 years ago. MtMandel is definitely the next best thing, thanks for finding them. Now I can start the job I've been putting off for 20 years. Poster? Not only did the UK edition cost the same number of pounds as dollars, there was no poster. Thanks again, look forward to my next post in 2025. Paddy
