Title: Mandelbulb3d v1.8.8 Post by: Jesse on March 14, 2013, 07:39:37 PM Mandelbulb3d v1.8.8
http://www.fractalforums.com/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=46 What is new in version 1.8.8: - Fixed issues in the navigator and lighting. - 'Smooth' option when calculating only one hard shadow. - New but slow monte carlo rendering method: 'M.C.' button in 'Utilities'. - Author names can be inserted into the parameter, look in 'Infos' tab. - Support for loading 48 bit PNG maps and background pics. - Exchanged the png unit with the old one because of reported saving issues. - Preview images in the loading dialog for m3i (if images are stored in). - Background images are also displayed in the navigator. - Rightclick on the map-nr fields brings up an opendialog for file-choosing. - Formula hybrid combinations with option for start nr of the second hybrid. - Animation preview with manual slider scrolling. - Button to adjust the object color scaling to the histogram. - 'Color on iteration' option in the coloring tab. - Some minor changes.

Am I right in assuming that parameters in this version render the same as in 1.82? (just want to be sure before I delete my previous installment...)

- After parameter changes in the navigator, the zoom could be infinite when walking. - Added drawing on image function in the color adjustment window. (see html readme) - Some minor changes. - Bugfix + speed increment of ABoxSmoothFold formula (Color and other changes can always happen between versions, especially to version 1.8.2 there can be big changes in certain parameters!)

Sorry, somehow i have managed to miss your post completely :hmh: What might be also an option is to rename the old executable into say Mandelbulb3D182.exe and let it in the directory...

I see very little difference in colouring when I export parameter files from 1.82 to 1.88 so it seems to work. I don't rename older files, I just create new folders for every new version. There are 10 now :-\ |
