Click on the tabs at the bottom to open and close them. While they are open you can change vars. Click the stage to select a region, then click again to render. Press i to input parameters then render. Press S to save current parameters of the rendering. Press L to load a random saved set of parameters. Press R to redraw the fractal without generating a new color cache. Press space to view the fractal in all its glory. (hide GUI) VARIABLES: Set: The current fractal function used Set#: The ID of the current fractal function (1-5) N: The power of the nth dimension mandelbrot set Zoom: The magnification multiplier (zoom 1 means it doesn't zoom) Threshold: The max value before Z "escapes" to infinity Iteration.max: The max number of iterations of a function Kx & Ky: Extra parameters used for the Julia and Rudy sets. Colors: The base colors with which a rendering rasterizes Gradients: The number of cycles through all colors Inverted?: Inverts all colors Striped?: Creates distinct bands of alternating shades B&W?: Render in greyshade SmoothShading: For faster performance, set to 0 (use Escape Time Algorithm). For anti-aliasing, set to 1 (use Normalized Iteration Count).
Delve into the fantastic and dazzling world of fractals and discover stunning patterns from simple functions. Features: -Simple and easy-to-use interface -Faster, cleaner scripting -Zooming animation! [NEW] -RGB color/gradient generator with stunning graphics -Escape Time Algorithm* for quick color selecting or Normalized Iteration Count** for smoother shading. -5 major fractals (Power-N Mandelbrot Set, Power-N Julia Set, Power-N Burning Ship, Rudy Set, Newton) -Preset 'snapshots' of epic fractal patterns *The Escape Time Algorithm selects a color based on the number of iterations that a point on a fractal had stayed within the threshold. It works in tandem with my color generator since every iteration value has a color stored for it. **The Normalized Iteration Count calculates a smooth transition between colors to reduce aliasing.
