Welcome to Fractal Forums

I've been doing a lot of experimenting with dIFS combos lately, and recently discovered
the joys of the 'inv max' DEcombinate mode. This allows - with some fiddling! - the attributes
of the single, slot 1, escapetime formula to be apparent when combined with up to 5 dIFS
formulas.
I'm just wondering if there's some fundamentally impossible, or really difficult to realise, reason
why multiple escapetime formulas can't be used with dIFS? Using hybrids in this way would
open up a whole new level of 'infinite possibilities'!!  :yes:

Hi,

it was the easiest way to implement this combinations in m3d without changing the complete formula calculation process.

It is also possible to use dIFS as formula 1 or escapetime for F2-F6 or both the same formula types, of course for specific purposes in inv DE combinations this is not the desired option for you.

A general formula combination mode would need a totally new parameter formulation with to much work for now, i am nor sure if a combination of F1+F2 and F3 to F6 would be possible and of big use... but this would maybe possible without very big changes.
 

Thanks for the quick response Jesse. I had a feeling that what I'm asking for would require
virtually a complete revamp of M3D! However I'll take what I can get - escapetime in the
F1 and F2 slots would allow a heck of a lot of hybridisation, including my fave combo! :dink:
Not holding my breath though mate, you've probably got a lot on your plate right now!
Thanks again.  :beer: :beer: :beer:

would be a cool option.  a per formula decombinate checkbox with option (min,max,inv-max,etc...)

i think it would be easier to write new ifs formulas that subract themselves. i dont know if thats a possibility.
