Sorry if you got it twice. Hello all, This is my first post to this list, though I've been lurking for a few months. The introduction to the list said that this was the place to wax eloquent about other fractal software (among other things) and so far none has done *that*, so here goes... Wlplot - Wesley Loewer available at http://archives.math.utk.edu A dos based collection of many small graphing programs connected by a meny.Simple, fast and really nifty at times (polar and recursive functions). BTW the author is thankful to the Stone Soup group for the Mandel speedups. Euler - Rene Grothmann at http://mathsrv.ku-eichstaett.de/MGF/homes/grothmann The features are in direct proportion to the number of disclaimers that the author puts out (following in the finest GNU tradition!). Only 3d Mandelbrot set with potential lines and Julias in the way of fractals, but you can program your own. A sample recursive flower is included (yes I know you did that when you were twelve but just thought I'd mention it). And now, last but not the least {:-> Fractint. May light eternal shine upon the progammers (with a litle more wattage for developers of the formula parser). In fact you could cut out nearly all the other features except that and the evolver and still have a great program. Enough said. Good bye for now.

I am so far behind on my messaging that I'm embarrased, but I will try = to start getting caught up. I no longer do any fractint midi files, as I find the = native sounds to be more interesting and fun to use, = especially with ver.20. But I will be happy to describe my basic methods, although I have unfortunately lost = (unreadable backup tape) my programs that I wrote for the purpose of producing the midi files. = As you have noted, using the option will generate a .txt file which contains information on on the numberic value that is sent to the pc speaker for each orbit point generated. It also records a time value = at the end of each new pixel being calculated. It = takes the form of: 768 1606 979 -420 time=3D113640 230 1961 time=3D115990 ... One note if using this option...beware! this file can get very large, very fast. If one has a high maxiter there can be more than a million lines generated *per pixel*. I used this information to convert the raw numbers to values = which meshed with midi info. For my purposes, I called midi note value "0" C-1 and note value "127" G9. (Some would do it differently ie. "0" =3D C-2...there seems to be a lack of agreement). So "Middle A" - the "A" above "Middle C" has a hz value of 440 and a midi note value of 69. So I converted the note values in the sound.txt file to midi note = info by rounding the raw numbers to the nearest midi note hz value, calling notes above or below legal limits "silent notes". I also had to change the time value to a midi recognizable form, as = well as add in some non-fractint supplied info that is needed by the key to this whole process...a neat freeware program called = MF2T.EXE. This does the converting of .txt files to .mid files, and = visa-versa. I took an existing midi file, ran it through MF2T and learned what it was looking for in the txt file...added that info = to my txt files, and ran the companion T2MF and got a usable .mid file, which could then be manipulated with standard midi programs. I am quite rusty in the specifics, as it has been three years since last playing with this technique. I did produce a CD "The Sounds of Chaos" and would be happy to give info via private email. Hope that this helps give you a start, if you are so inclined. = Bill Subject: (fractint) Metaverse Portal Date: 03 Nov 1999 14:35:05 -0600 This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0002_01BF2608.DF4FB540 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit For the last year we've been in the process of creating a 3-D site. The site is more than just another 3-D site because it is also multiuser enabled. What this means is that you will be able to see the other people's avatar walking around taking a look or interacting with the virtual environment. You can chat as well. Later on you will be able to do things like exchange files or bring in or leave objects for other people to pick up or see. The server and client software used to accomplish this is open source. We want to facilitate the building of the metaverse (not just Metaverse Portal). You might be wondering why I'm posting this to the Fractint list server. Well the short answer is that I was exposed to Fractint and the Stone Soup Group before the creation of the Web. The Fractint community helped me get my first publishing deal and my first Pentium computer ($4500 P90 :-). It has helped shape my way of thinking and developing software and business models. I understand the power of open source and community efforts. That's why the Fractint community is the first thing that comes to my mind in regards to what e-commerce things my company should implement first. Being a graphics, music, and virtual reality artist, I truly respect and want to help other artists and content developers. So here goes some details: 1) the site uses VRML and Java - any VRML browser will work 2) the first component of the site that we will make available to the public is a space with fractal art galleries. 3) there is currently a large building for the fractal gallery, a building for a mandelbrot showcase, and a building for a feature artist 4) I would like to stock the fractal gallery with artwork from the previous fractal contests 5) we are going to provide limited server access so that authorized artists can upload their latest work and have it automatically updated it within the virtual reality space(s). 6) we will provide forums and space for downloads (EXEs, DOCs, ect) for the related VR space(s) 7) we are implementing e-commerce for the sales of posters (and other things later) 8) we will handle all printing and shipping of artwork 9) we will pay a higher than normal royalty rate 10) we will display artwork that the fractal community wants displayed - not simply what we decide here at Beyond VR 11) we are going to primarily sell photographic prints over the web - the prints that have the most sales will go into mass production 12) thanks to ParallelGraphics, we will be able to stream in RealAudio and RealVideo into the VR space(s) NO I'M NOT STUPID.... WE WILL GET THE PROPER AUTHORIZATION BEFORE WE MAKE ANY PRINT AVAILABLE FOR SALE Prints that go into mass production will be sold through traditional distributor channels (malls, franchises, headshops, ect). What will be different however, is in the fact that we plan on running the smallest mass production runs possible (3000 - 5000). Once a design is gone we do not plan on continuing to offer it except as the high-quality photographic prints. This is to help drive collector interest. The fractal space is just the tip of what we plan on offering at Metaverse Portal. But it's the first thing we are doing. If any of you want to check it out before it's available to the general public, here is a back door www.metaverse-portal.com/fractal The bare bones are there, so you can get a feel for what I'm talking about. ALL feedback is extremly welcome (and encouraged ;-) ..... yes it will be spiffed up considerably... we're focusing on functionality right now If you don't have a VRML browser download one here http://www.parallelgraphics.com If you already have one, it will work. CosmoPlayer is beautiful and what the site was designed to work best with but unfortunately CosmoSoftware is no longer in existence (NO TECH SUPPORT). We recommend you download Cortona from ParallelGraphics (it has surpassed CosmoPlayer's abilities anyway). They are working with us to get a few remaining bugs out so that we can implement the multiuser features (the bugs are only in relation to that - not any problems with Cortona displaying stuff). When those bugs are taking care of we will turn on the multiuser capability of the site. Everything will be optimised for their browser in the VERY near term so I highly recommend using it. It will also allow you to do some interesting things that will be announced soon. Jon Meadows Beyond VR jon@metaverse-portal.com ps - here's a little story: once upon a time there was this guy with a 25MHZto SX 486. He learned about fractals and thought "these.....are.....cool". Being a photographer and computer graphics fanatic, he thought "hmmm...these would make excellent posters or postcards". So that 25MHZ-SX chugged for two weeks to generate the 4096x4096 res newton. "Beware of the 2 year old boy", he warned the 25MHZ-SX with no keybord lock ,"a keyborad lock won't help you...he keeps finding the hammer after I hide it" Two spankings later, the computer had made all the peices necessary. Swap file?? Well, we'll just unload Windows3.1. That'll leave enough space. Stitch, stitch, stitch says PicLab. It sold 40,000 copies and was on the market for 4 years....

Jones" Subject: Re: (fractint) Best fractal program for various things Date: 02 Nov 1999 21:12:04 -0500 Michael, A belated reply as I'm trying to get net access from my new home in Orlando... - Thanks an awfull lot for this great and inspiring work you did with this - contest /these contests by now. Well it has been a lot of work, certainly... and definitely a lot learned. But what made it great was the variety of submissions and the number of other people who volunteered their time and effort to make the contest work. Not everything went smoothly, but hopefully it's been a net plus for the fractal community. - Is there any simple listing which fractal program is best suited for - what? I only use fractint and haven't discovered half of it, I guess - (RTFM, I know). No, there really isn't such a listing, because sometimes it just boils down to a matter of preference. The following should be taking as an exhaustive list of plusses and minuses. :-) FractInt's strengths are its versatility ("escape-time" fractals, IFSs, L-systems, strange attractors, 3D transformations, even cellular automota), its extensive user-written formula collection (OrgFrm), its comprehensive online help, its price (free), and that the source code is available. Its limitations are no real true color support and its DOS interface, two things that are being worked on. It is faster than many programs, too. Tiera-Zon, Flarium, GrafZViZion, SterlingWare, etc. (maybe we should just call them the Ferguson programs) are also free, with source code available. Their strengths are true-color support, a wide array of coloring options, and in some of the programs, images that are almost impossible to produce with other software. Almost all of the programs run in Windows. Their weaknesses are little documentation and tricky color control. Ultra Fractal's strengths are its true-color support, its ability to read many FractInt PAR files and most formula files, its large collection of its own formulas, the ability to do layering, its speed (faster than most everything else), and its organized Windows interface. Its major drawbacks are that the source code to the main program is not available (although the code for all the fractal formulas *is*) and that it is not free (it is a $35 Shareware product). Fractal eXtreme's strengths are its speed (fastest fractal generator around), its Windows interface, and its plug-in architecture that allows additional fast fractal code to be added by any programmer. Its weaknesses are that its source code is not available, that it is not free (it is a $35 Shareware product), and that it is limited to 256-color images. Terry Gintz's software bears mentioning as well. Dofo-Zon uses a plug-in architecture that shares many common modules with Steve Ferguson's programs. It reads FractInt PARs and FRMs, and has extensive support for hypercomplex and quaternion fractal types, which are often neglected in other programs. It is free. FraxFlame, FraxPlorer, and Frax4D (I think I got those right) are part of Kai's Power Tools 5, a set of plug-ins for Adobe Photoshop. These are true-color modules that produce some very unique images. They only work as plug-ins, though, which means you need a graphics package capable of using them. (Photoshop, Painter, Picture Publisher, Paint Shop Pro, and Photo-Paint can all do this.) None of those are free, however, and KPT5 itself lists for $199. FraxFlame is based on the flame fractals of Scott Draves, and a free Windows version has been done by Michael Sargent. There are probably others I missed, but these are the main ones. :-) Damien M.

Congratulations and many thanks to those who worked on the latest version, with its improvements. Wild. I'm trying to play with some huge-size disk-video modes, by altering un-needed settings in fractint.cfg. The very first time I tried this and then attempted to render a large-order dragon curve at 32,000 x 24,000, it seemed to have worked, according to the box which informed me the image was being rendered. Every subsequent time, however, right after the message about clearing the "space", it hung up and I needed to re-start my machine. I usually use SF7, if that's any help. Below are the changed settings from my .cfg. (I also defragged my hard drive, and there's at least 150 MB free.) Any suggestions please?

I have tried the following: Moving Fractint to my much larger D drive and defragging it right before I start. Experimenting with some larger disk-video modes to render the default Mandelbrot - just fine at 2.8 x 2.1k and 4 x 3k in 256 colours, confirmed in Photoshop. Trying another Lsystem, Hilbert, as well as the rounded Dragon Curve, in the smaller of these modes - the display window still freezes right after clearing the 'screen' - which suggests it's an Lsystem problem. Have you tried your 12 x 16k rendering with lsystems? Any help you (or anyone) could give would be much appreciated...!

Galleries 2, 3, and 4 are selected images from July/August, September, and October. I'll add a page for Contest Entries later. Comments are welcome, though I fear my images pale in comparison to the awesome images from Mark, Paul, and Gedeon on their recently updated galleries. Enjoy. Ken...

Well, I was SURE all the time that Fractint doesn't run under dosemu very well, so I was very happy when I discovered that V20.0 runs perfectly under it (it's a rather slow, but anyway). There is only one small problem: I can't get my sound card (Yamaha OPL3-SA2) to work (it works if I boot DOS). Does anyone have experience with things like that?

Hi!

I am running Linux as my primary OS quite for a while now and the only
thing I was missing was Fractint. Not xfractint, but the only true
fractint... with colors and without X windows.
Well, I was SURE all the time that Fractint doesn't run under dosemu very
well, so I was very happy when I discovered that V20.0 runs perfectly
under it (it's a rather slow, but anyway).

There is only one small problem: I can't get my sound card (Yamaha
OPL3-SA2) to work (it works if I boot DOS). Does anyone have experience
with things like that?
