moc426 Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 (edited) Here is the promised fractal plugin, this is the Mandelbrot function. Fractal.zip NOTE: I did not write the Mandelbrot function, the function is taken directly from the CodeLab sample. The function was converted from CodeLab to C#. Would like to do same for Julia function sometime and perhaps follow up with other types. Julia function is a sample in CodeLab as well so that shouldn't be a problem to setup. I didn't get to test it too much, and it probably needs some things. So you tell me, I know already it should have reset buttons especially for the x and y offsets cause their value is much more than needed. update 9/10/2007 download same zip below Added color sliders, red, green, blue and alpha. you have to mess around with it to get color as you want. Added new image below. update 9/15/2007 Added reset buttons to individual settings. Fixed tab indexes. Lowered up/down increments for offsetX and offsetY to .01 instead of .02. So here we go, a screenshot. Enjoy! Here is an image I made using this. I was asked about this image a few times, so here is a tutorial that should help. tutorial and another Edited August 2, 2019 by toe_head2001 Fixed broken download and broken images Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yata Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Please, oh please put this in the render sub menu! Otherwise, fantastic plugin. Thank you!

moc426 Posted September 7, 2007 Author Share Posted September 7, 2007 Welcome all. I will see about fixing the offsets later. Added new picture. Yata, the idea is to have more fractal types so it is getting its own menu. I am sure if it belongs in render, unless I can do a render -> fractal -> mandelbrot, then it would be nice. Not sure if I can. But if people want it in render, I can move it so let me know what you guys want. Render or Fractal Please, oh please put this in the render sub menu!Otherwise, fantastic plugin. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattBlackLamb Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Shorter the list - Happier the Yata :wink: The shorter the list the happier the me. Yeah, stick it in render, I've got loads of plugins & there's a little arrow at the bottom of my effects menu already. Quote dA Son, someday you will make a girl happy for a short period of time.

Fisherman's Friend Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 But if people want it in render, I can move it so let me know what you guys want. Render or Fractal I agree with Yata and vote for render. Just rename the plugin, e.g. "Fractal: Mandelbrot". It will look like this: Render -> Fractal: Mandelbrot. And I would be glad to see more fractals. I tried to make plugins from the cs scripts, but didn't found the time and knowledge, therefore I'm lucky to see this now. And thank you, it's nice.

Andrew D Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Can we have the source code for it, well, the edited source code anyways, I might try and have a look at it and improve it. And also, can you create more than 3 sliders in Code Lab? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myrddin Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Maybe once you have more fractals (or maybe even once you have two) you could do an MKT and have the different 'modes' under one roof. MKT has |Sphere|Cylinder|Box| you could have |Mandelbrot|Julia|....|? This will shorten space, free up menu item real-estate and also just incase, for example, you want Julia but accidentally go for Mandelbrot you can easily switch without having to close the dialog and climb through all those menus again. If not, Render sounds good . Quote How to Save Your Images under Different File Types My dA Gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moc426 Posted September 7, 2007 Author Share Posted September 7, 2007 Ok updated to render submenu. And fixed up/down increments for offset, the slider does a full integer so it skips a lot, in this case the up/down arrows are best suited. Myrddin, good idea. Edit, will post source later, but I may not have time to look at this until next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anubra Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 1 think too, make the cooler chooseable, red, yellow, etc etc, or use it from primary colour this would be very very nice, only blue is not what everybody needs ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Frojo Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Looks cool. Its a start to fractals in pdn. I cant wait for even more to be realeased as well. Quote I'm still alive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david.atwell Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Wow, awesome! Can't wait to use this. I second Myrddin's idea; menu monkey bars are tough, and MKT's solution is easy. For me, at least :-) Anyway, I am super-excited about this plugin! Quote The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior...

adp625 Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 Excellent first fractal plugin for PDN. can't wait for a broader variety. Although it would be nice to have other colors, I find Hue, Saturation to be an easy fix for a blue fractal Quote scroll down and anything can happen...

The_Lionhearted Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 Awesome! Thanks moc! And I'm a fan of the "render -> fractal -> mandelbrot" idea that was tossed around. As well as just having "render -> fractal" and being able to change the type of fractal inside the plugin. Quote My Gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
