Really amazing how many details are possible in just a cube  |

let's start a tile and ornament shop where all those patterns are buyable on actual tiles and stuff and get some of the earnings to this forum xD |

This could be the next cubic death star in the next star wars film, i guess...

Double wow. Bib, I don't even know how you found those last two pictures. Jesse, is that a cylon in the sky?  David, the MMFwip3D does an amazing job and I'm enjoying the fog and point light features. These parts remind me of a temple... After blasting through the cliff wall, the dust settles and the sun reveals the gleaming sight of the long lost temple of Rameses  So we lit up a torch and stepped closer, the glow from the temple entrance was blinding  (settings for first pic in its comment in my gallery http://www.fractalforums.com/index.php?action=gallery;su=user;cat=111;u=853) |

Hey, what happens if you multiply the point by -1 after the spherical inversion? Too lazy to do it myself... and I'm just curious to see what results.  |

Scale = -2 looks like this:

Also a nice one However the other pics where from +3, right? So, how does +2 look in comparison? Is it any different to -2? |

Actually, I meant applying a negative conditionally, only if you do the spherical inversion (i.e. if length<fixedRadius). But negative scale values look pretty cool too!
Anyway, I was trying to get the formula you posted to work, and I'm having trouble... I had to copy the Vector class to mmf.ulb, and then I added the code "Vector point" into the first #isdef at the top of the code... I set DE to orbit traps, and although it took forever, I never got pretty pictures. :-( What's wrong?

That one with negative on "< fixedRadius" looks also interesting, maybe a original round death star somewhere: |

@Tglad: Got it to work. I had downloaded it, naming conflict, tried to fix it, broke it... I won't bore you. Very nice, now that I can view it myself. I hope that David incorporates it into his next release! Now maybe I'll start playing around with the code myself for a bit, hope I don't break it again. @Jesse, thanks for the render. Looks very neat-o! Just imagine what these pictures would look like if there was some approximately reflective properties to the surface. Just taking a surface normal, making a perspective new image from those coords at a very low res, and blending. (Maybe I shouldn't start with "Just"...) It would be tricky, and would probably take ages to render, but it would make the spheres and cubes look all the more metallic. Ah, a guy can dream... |
