Title: Timeline for 2.12? Post by: Kyzia on August 09, 2017, 12:33:47 PM Having had a little time to play around with the 'limited' OpenCL capability in the later alphas for 2.12, I'm pretty excited at the potentially huge acceleration offered.
Despite the lack of much of the functionality that will ultimately be included, it's great to have render times in the order of seconds to minutes, rather than hours. I appreciate that there's probably a lot more work to be done, and that this work is being carried out by a very small number of developers in their free time, but I was wondering whether there is any target release date for 2.12 at the moment.

However to make users happy I have decided to release alpha versions of Mandelbulber 2.12 with actual state of development. Downloads are here: https://github.com/buddhi1980/mandelbulber2/releases Of course there is no guarantee that the program will work properly, as they are not final releases. |
