A Happy New Discovery

For those of you who, like me, have been struggling trying to get DOS FractInt to work I have found what I believe is THE solution: The special make by "kolano" of DOSBOX+FRACTINT downloadable here: http://eyecandy.gnugget.net/Fractint/ I am running it on my PC on WindowsXP and it runs perfectly, full-screen, in SF10 or any of the video modes I've tried so far. DOSBOX is an "emulator"... it is a Program which will run in Windows like any other Program and it does not harm or disturb your Windows OS. Earlier, I had installed Dosbox and then installed FractintDOS into it, and Fractint ran well. But this special make by kolano of Dosbox+Fractint(included) is much better. During the past couple months I think I've tried everything else to get Fractint to run properly: I installed VirtualBox and then VMware, both with FreeDOS and Windows98 installed as their Guests, and then with Fractint installed into these Guests. In all these instances Fractint could be made to "work", at least feebly, but never properly. I've also tried to install other versions of DOS (like MS DOS 7.1 - what's in Win9x) virtually, but without success. I also got an old PC (Dell Optiplex 740) with the intention of installing Windows98 as its main OS... but learned that is impossible because the hardware in that PC is "too modern" (not IDE), and Win9x can't see SATA and can't use NTFS. I even repartitioned/reformatted half the drive in that old Optiplex to FAT32 but that didn't help, either. So you can understand why I'm enthused about this DOSBOX+FRACTINT! --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com

Curious - Out of the Box

Re facebook, I´m sharing Jack´s and David´s attitude. Don´t even have a smartphone, and never will, am security minded and like my privacy. And I hate being interrupted when I´m diving into creativity. About my images: Am a bit tired of all those clean and symmetrical pictures and think it´s time for a temporary (?) change. MFR can do anything you want and the Lambda frm is suitable for new "adventures". You just choose a basic function, let the evolution mode find something interesting. Every function has characteristical details. Then find a zoom and the colors. Finally the complexity can be chosen by increasing or decreasing the bailout. Voila! That´s how today´s image came about and I left it unchanged as I think it´s interesting enough. Your opinion? I like Tony´s expression and used it as a title. ; https://www.dropbox.com/sh/yk9l9k0hkfwod7t/AAAqWC46Qb9PQvzfF5UxDvSJa?dl=0 ; Albrecht ; ------------------------------------Start Par---------------------------- Lambd_04 { ; Out of the Box ; Lambda - Sqrt Function ; Time 0.10.37.96 Reso 1280/1024 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=mfr_14.frm formulaname=mfr_14_2 function=exp/exp/sqrt/sin passes=t center-mag=0/0/0.6666667 params=0.2481521042512283/-0.04168218024231699/80000.32590150023/20000.0\ 506030602/150148.0084759982/384.160489401131/384.00482000595/256.1007683\ /512.1007683001/512.1007683001 float=y maxiter=1024 inside=maxiter periodicity=0 rseed=-2436 colors=000zr0zz1zzC<2>zzz<3>jqdfo_blU<3>Mb8<3>LQ8KM8KJ8<2>I88H44G00<3>TA\ 5WD6ZF7aI8eLAhMBiODjQF<3>qeBriAtm9vq8xu7zz5zz4zz3<4>zj4zg4zc4<3>zS5zP5zL\ 6zI6zE6wE6tD6<6>vAIv9Kv9M<3>x7Sy7Uy6Wz6Yz5_<3>f5Ma5IW4E<2>_4H<3>P3DN2CK2\ A<3>805G0BO0G<3>g0Ul0Xq0`v0d<2>y0fz0gy0h<3>u1mt1ns1or2q<2>v2u<3>c5eZ6`U6\ X<2>F9LAAG7FO4KW0Qc<3>5Xc6Zc7`c7aa7c_7eY<3>FcgHciJbl<3>S_v<3>civflvinvlq\ votvsww<2>zzz<3>rwzovzhsw<3>Gch8_d8Xa<3>8JP8FL8CI<3>SCCXCAaB9<3>uA2zA0xA\ 0<12>SA1QA1NA1<3>D92<6>UXAW`BYcC<3>hrI<3>UnXQm`NlcJkgFfpAaz<3>PKoSFlWAi_\ 5fc0ce7_jFRoNIzb0zj0000 } -----------------------------------------End-------------------------------

. Barry Smith expressed my sentiments exactly; as much as I am a techie, I never bothered with FB or TWIT; I don't even have a smart phone! I am more concerned with privacy and security, and I dont need a lot of nonsense chatter in my life. However, other people with my name have these accounts and as I am a professional I need to keep my online profile "clean". [ BTW, any of you ever google yourself? may be surprised! ] SO I got myself on FB and twit last year just to fill in the blank and keep it clean. I do play with FB on occasion, but I dont bother tweeting the world every move I make or thing I do. https://www.facebook.com/lloyd.garrick.3 .

Don´t Know if you´ll like this one but definetely it´s interesting and once again a new type. Managed to preserve the full Lambda functionality with this update inspie of default functions and just a minimum of additional code. Including the frm version - down compatible as always - in the par. Jack can you generate the latest images again to be sure they are correct amd no memory problems turn up? Thank you! Jonathan please update your data base, dont think any more updates will be necessary. ; https://www.dropbox.com/sh/0p2s2jzv5d40k3o/AADxQN1x0-O3tGNjFcS967qaa?dl=0 ; Albrecht ; --------------------------start par-------------------------------------- Lambd_22 { ;

Complexity
by Niekamp 20 Mar '15

20 Mar '15

Needed some days for a bugfix concerning the generation of Lambda images. Due to complexity of the latest version it can be a difficult task, Jonathan mentioned the same problem - on his level - which is skyhigh compared to mine. Anyway the generation of my own definition of a complex number to replace P1 works satisfactory and even has the possibility to increase it´s versions with a choosable function. Of course the image is called "complexity". ; https://www.dropbox.com/sh/aajz1puopwj10fc/AAA6hkyG9N1cNQeC_8RMRewja?dl=0 ; Albrecht ; ----------------------------------Start Par----------------------------- Lambd-01a { ; Complexity ; Lambda Variable set to 23 ; Time 0.01.53.42 Reso 1280/1024 ; New complex number definition reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=mfr_14.frm formulaname=mfr_14_2 function=ident/exp/sin/conj passes=t center-mag=+0.42201922872088370/-1.08606971938494700/55.44183/1/-90/-1.2\ 3373533611470521e-014 params=0.2809320352793969/-0.8534775841547899/80000.32592350002/11111.05\ 06030602/150848.0404808048/1111.160489401141/1111.00482000595/256.111111\ 00001/512.1111110000101/512.1111110000101 float=y maxiter=1024 inside=maxiter periodicity=0 rseed=-2436 sound=off colors=000D01<8>f0Ci0Dl0F<3>z0K<6>Z0EV0DR0C<3>A08004000<26>000<4>000<7>Q\ 0UU0YX0a_0dc0hf0l<2>p0w<4>_0dX0aU0Y<2>K0NH0JG0NE1R<3>7UX6`Z4h_2oa0wc<10>\ 2WI2TG2RE<3>4G54D36F5<16>kkammcpoe<3>zwm<3>mhZjdVfaS<3>VMCRI8OE4KA0000<4\ 3>000<4>000330<6>220220220<3>110000110<2>000KA4<7>gcOjgRmjT<3>zzc<9>UOFR\ KDOGALC8H85E43A00 } ----------------------------End--------------------------------------------

Power and Protection
by Niekamp 18 Mar '15

18 Mar '15

Had a good conversation with my friend Hal, who with his superior knowledge of human behavior made it clear to me that I have to learn ignoring the attacks of an "internet troll" who shoots from a safe distance. This person, driven by an inferiority complex, likes to make others feel bad to reassue himself of his superiority. As this definetely is not my problem I´ll try to concentrate on creativity and the positive emotions connected to it. Enough of that. Jonathan is working on the memory problem, good to know, and advised to go on using patch 12 until it´s solved. So here is my new "visual experience", one of the kind that does not resemble anything you´ve seen before, but makes you look twice. ; https://www.dropbox.com/sh/rezhlesikbqjf6x/AACH0CfJ8ZdgtjezVXaYJogDa?dl=0 ; Albrecht ; ------------------------------Start Par---------------------------------- 80484-01 { ; Power and Protection ; Magnet-Manowar ; Time 0.01.52.43 Reso 1280/1024 reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=mfr_14.frm formulaname=mfr_14_2 function=sin/sin/exp/sin passes=t center-mag=-1.13217/5.55112e-016/1.718213/1/90/3.88578058618804789e-016 params=1.892178106021302/0.4900357066560869/80484.32595752121/25232.0506\ 020602/152048.0404808035/384.1604894022/384.00482000595/256.1007683/512.\ 1007683001/512.1007683001 float=y maxiter=3072 inside=maxiter outside=tdis periodicity=0 rseed=-2436 sound=off colors=000usixukzwm<3>mhZjdVfaS<3>VMCRI8OE4KA0000<43>000<4>000330<6>2202\ 20220<3>110000110<2>000KA4<7>gcOjgRmjT<3>zzc<9>UOFRKDOGA<3>A00<9>f0Ci0Dl\ 0F<3>z0K<6>Z0EV0DR0C<3>A08004000<26>000<4>000<7>Q0UU0YX0a_0dc0hf0l<2>p0w\ <4>_0eX0aU0Y<2>K0NH0JG0NE1R<3>7UX6`Z4h_2oa0wc<10>2WI2TG2RE<3>4G54D36F5<1\ 6>kkammcpoesqg } -----------------------------------End------------------------------------

FOTD 16-03-15 (Fractals-101 [A-6,M-6])
by Jim Muth 16 Mar '15

16 Mar '15

FOTD -- March 16, 2015 (Rating A-6,M-6) Fractal visionaries and enthusiasts: I have been pretty silent lately but I am certainly still here. Though today's image is nothing new, it shows that between my more artistic efforts I still find time to check into the world of fractals. And don't give up hope. Some of my latest efforts should soon be worth posting on the web sites. If the Mandelbrot set is the mother of all Z^2+C fractals, then the Julibrot is the grandmother, for it is the four-dimensional superfractal that contains the Mandelbrot set as a single two-dimensional slice. Today's image shows an undistorted view of a different slice of this Julibrot, sliced in a totally new orientation, with the vertical direction the imaginary C axis and the horizontal direction the real Z axis. I call this orientation the Oblate direction, though this is totally unofficial. The image slices through the M-set at the point -0.8 on the real C axis, just beyond Seahorse Valley. I have named the image "Fractals-101" because the 4-D aspect is basic to so many fractals. I could rate it no higher than a double 6 however because we have been here so often before. The calculation time is almost instant however, and this is the image's best point. The finished image is posted at: <http://www.crosscanpuzzles.com/Archives.html> <http://www.emarketingiseasy.com/TESTS/FOTD/jim_muths_fotd.html> <http://www.Nahee.com/FOTD/> <http://user.xmission.com/~legalize/fractals/fotd/about.html> The temperature of 54F 12C made up for the limited sun here at Fractal Central today. Now that the winter to be remembered is winding down, and the snow and ice is quickly disappearing, the three fractal cats are giving more attention to the activity in the outside cat world. Lida has her eye on a big tough-looking orange tomcat that frequents the area, while Jasmine prefers a tuxedo colored tomcat. Nicholas simply watches the ladies silly behavior with aloof detachment, while the fractal people watch all three with puzzlement. The next FOTD will be posted, that much is certain, but only the invisible shadow knows when, and he's not talking. So until whenever, take care, and everyone should have at least one crazy conspiracy theory he can believe in without feeling silly.

Lack of memory crash
by Niekamp 15 Mar '15

15 Mar '15

This is what I´ve been told to do on my request to fix the lack of memory crashes caused by the latest fractint update. /"You just need to back off on the demands of your fractals// //so they are not at the edge of Fractint's capabilities."/ This means the end of my multifractal project after 12 years, nothing less. So the last Mohawk has to go. Albrecht
