Title: Long Julian render time Post by: Lee Oliver on January 13, 2011, 01:50:18 PM Why do julian fractals take so much longer to render in MB3D? Especially the magnifications, a 1600 by 1200 pixel picture can take hours on my computer.
Is there a technical reason as to why they take so long? Title: Re: Long Julian render time Post by: Jesse on January 13, 2011, 05:50:51 PM A guess:
Do you have julia seeds for x and y of zero? If so, try to increase them a bit like 0.000001 because on some formulas there might be divisions by zero. On some CPUs this doesnt change rendering time, on some it slows it down very much.
