. Never heard of "MAPGEN" and can't find anything on the web; I have a program called MAKEMAP if you are interested. Why not ask Sylvie ?? .

Perhaps she wrote it herself and never distributed it to anyone else... Anyone know about a Fractint format .MAP generating program named "MAPGEN"? - Hal Lane ######################## # hallane(a)earthlink.net ######################## --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. http://www.avast.com

Hot Tip for XP Users
by Niekamp 24 Jan '15

24 Jan '15

Sofar the fastest way ro run Fractint for me is the XP Dos. Now I tested a fast bootstick: The same image generated with XP Dos needed 5 to 7 minutes pending other running processes. With the bootstick it needed 1 min 37sec !! I found out how you can use the bootstick like a ssd under xp: sstools.ini and fractint.cfg are located inside the fractint folder. SStools path is the harddisk letter: formulafile=l:\fracti~1\frm\mfr_13.frm for use as a bootstick sstoolsini and fractint.cfg are located outside the fractint folder: formulafile=C:\fracti~1\frm\mfr_13.frm. So if you want to switch between dos and windows use the first option and avoid to have two separate fractint folders with different contents. Petta

Forging Art
by Niekamp 23 Jan '15

23 Jan '15

This is supposed to be a work of art - composed using the Dimensional Gate image. If it really is, you have to decide, but it shows what can be done. ; This is something I have dreamed of since starting the multifractal evolution - but only now - initiated by a "dreamed" idea - I am very close. ; The latest edition of MFR_12 had a size of 10729 bytes, MFR_13 has a size of 8869 bytes inspite of all updates, so regardless of the buffersize no memory problems should occur. ; The updates are down compatible. If there is any one that does not generate correctly with the latest version please tell me.Thanks. ; https://www.dropbox.com/sh/cox67uecgnm32qv/AABuFUv4mtzaTOwA93VILTSVa?dl=0 ; Petta ; ----------------------------------------Start Par-------------------------- 35010-07 { ; Forging Art ; Bees-ManyMods-Secant ; Time 0.00.57.34 Reso 1280/1024 ; All parts modified for this Work of Art reset=2004 type=formula formulafile=mfr_13.frm formulaname=multifractal_13 function=sin/flip/atan/sin passes=t center-mag=-46.17951483390976000/-3.30116202404810100/36334.54/1/2.99999\ 999993435562/2.91488969766939832e-009 params=-0.05825983458967864/0.3785210730307932/35010.6459576706/45235.49\ 11030602/152048.0404808048/1.1604894048/24.00482000595/0.1000003001/422.\ 2000003001/768.1000003001 float=y maxiter=3071 inside=maxiter outside=tdis periodicity=0 rseed=-2436 colors=000TbI<8>PfMOfNOfO<5>KhRJhRIhSHhSHiTGiT<7>AiX9iY9jY<8>3ia3ia2ib<3\ >1hc1hc0hd<9>0ef0df0df<7>3ag3`g4`g5_g<6>9XgAWfAWf<3>DUf000<3>00003000001\ 1000020000<3>000000000QJa<7>TFYTEYUEX<8>U9TU9SU8S<4>S6PS6PS5O<3>Q4MP4LP3\ L<4>L2IL2IK1H<11>B0BA0AA0A90A<7>406306305305<3>114113013<9>041051050<4>2\ 70270280<3>4905A05A0<23>MO4NO4OP5<5>RS7RT7ST8<3>TWATWAUXA<12>TbH } ---------------------------------------End---------------------------------

Trying to run David Riccio's Fractint FreeDOS OVA
by david 23 Jan '15

23 Jan '15

When it starts up, it says: "Bad or missing Command Interpreter: C:\FDOS\BIN\COMMAND.COM C:\FDOS\BIN /E:1024 /P=AUTOEXEC.BAT" Followed by a prompt to "Enter the full shell command line:". Unfortunately, I'm unable to enter anything at the prompt; the VM doesn't accept any keyboard input. Running this under 64-bit Aptosid (Debian Sid) Linux, using VirtualBox v4.3.18_Debian r96516. Something wrong at my end or in the appliance? -- David W. Jones gnome(a)hawaii.rr.com authenticity, honesty, community http://dancingtreefrog.com

The Black Hole Modofication
by Niekamp 22 Jan '15

22 Jan '15

To emphasize what I have said about fractals and art yesterday I have added one more item to the Black Hole folder: It illustrates the possibilities of artistic modification. All 3 parts are warped independently and separately and can be modified as such: Compression and Function. The compression modifies the color but also the structure, how much depends on the frm used for that part. The function primarily alters the structure but also - to a certain degree - the colors. Which one you use first or both simultaneously is up to you. Anyway the Fractint evolver plays a big part in this game. As it is a single image each modification influences the other parts too, so at the end you have a result that is your own work of art but still is a fractal with all it´s possibilities. It takes some time of course but which work of art is composed in some minutes?

Dropbox Archives
by Niekamp 22 Jan '15

22 Jan '15

Good News from Dropbox: They have increased the online security - I noticed some days before. To access your account on their homepage you have to sign in, always. If you have an account they need a confirmation of your email address on first visit, just like in a forum. And that is an improvement. So I´m taking the opportunity to release my site again - that means all previous items are available for download, even the images back to 2012, but not the soundfiles. If there is interest I´ll publish a link too. Of course it´s a oneway release. Hopefully I´ll stay secure. Here is the link for the archives: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/rzymsbt18j4fw13/AABG0h4mImmkSKmc0Chqitxla?dl=0 ; The 2015 links remain. ; Petta

. Did anyone render the Maya Mandala? I can not; FractInt doesn't "see" the entry in the PAR file. Must be an error somewhere but the code loox OK to me. .

. "Dimensional Gate" is awesome! Too many params for a morph animation, might try a zoom. Now lemme see about these next three ... .
