Title: Mandelbulb in a 3D modeling software Post by: cbuchner1 on December 20, 2010, 01:14:23 AM Found three Mandelbulb renders (one with glass material) of the Mandelbulb in the gallery belonging to a Mac OSX 3D modeling program.
http://www.cheetah3d.com/gallery.php I have no idea how the bulb was imported into the 3D software. Looks nice though. Title: Re: Mandelbulb in a 3D modeling software Post by: reallybigname on December 20, 2010, 02:55:59 AM Yeah, you can even get them made for you in 3D at shapeways!
http://www.shapeways.com/model/98090/mandelbulb.html I'm assuming that they are rendering slices, then importing the slices into another prog to make the 3d shape.

I thought it was easy in m3d to do 2d slices in the ani, but there seems to be some nifty things to get around... So i did an example m3a file that should work on the p8, the proportions are more or less exact, one of the nifty things. I see that a special export function would make this much more comfortable.

Yes, Please make it a feature for simplicity's sake O0 Title: Re: Mandelbulb in a 3D modeling software Post by: KRAFTWERK on December 21, 2010, 09:13:09 AM The P 8 looks like it has had some serious problems when rendering the "minibulbs" they are completely hollow...
O0 nerdy I know...

Wow, really expensive and really tiny with a very low number of iterations. |
