There are currently some archives uploaded to:
http://gds-entropy.com/FileDrop/, and more will be added throughout the
day months.
This archive contains the compiler, app, fractal landscapes plugin, example files, FE compiler tutorial and db, and so forth.
File size: 3.2mbhttp://gds-entropy.com/FileDrop/Fractal Explorer.7zPlease see REPLY#18 for links to the Virtual Machine tools and instructions. Windows only, and you're on your own.This thread is intended to be an ongoing link set to archives of all of my fractal formulae for use with
Fractal Explorer.
These will be hosted on my domain due to file size being in the tens to hundreds of megabytes because of the images within the archives, in some cases.
Each archive is by creation date of the formulae within, and each may be wildly different from the next within that date; keep in mind the sample images I may post are not representative of the whole.You don't want to be forced to render this volume of parameter files just to see if you are interested in rendering the image, so the images stay.
I don't have to share, but I am and I'm doing it my way, so take it or leave it.
I have literally thousands of unique fractal formulae, made from 2004 to this very day, and I want to give them to the world in the hopes that others will expand on what I have done and share their subsequent derivatives for the benefit of the species in the spirit of the hacker ethos
"Information wants to be free.". In this way everyone can share in the results, and further development can proceed at a great rate.
While I respect the right of the originator of any noncommercial idea to keep it secret, I strongly object to this in principle.
No, I emphatically
do not subscribe to any form of the truly
vile, pestilential and cancerous Marxist/SJW philosophy, but I do believe that advancement of any idea is best achieved when it is freely shared and anyone can lend their skills to its enhancement, and subsequently share further developments following the same precept.
Due to the sheer volume of the files and images, I cannot post icons for even a small portion of what I am sharing.
I'm sorry, but unless you want to grant me the ability to exceed 256kb per post it just isn't going to happen, and I'm not making hundreds of posts to accomplish this task.
I may post selected items or links to Flickr where there are examples.
Fractal Explorer DOES work under Windows 7-10, and if needed I will provide an archive with the application, Virtual PC and XP Mode, including tutorials for 7 and 8/10 explaining how to set it up.
The formula compiler is built in Delphi and compiled to use the XP 16 bit subsystem, which is why it has to be run under a VM.I will reply to this post with links to the archives, but you may browse the folder wherein they are stored manually:
http://gds-entropy.com/FileDrop/The contents of this folder will not be limited to fractals, and will soon contain many novel multiscale algorithms for solving partial differential reaction-diffusion equations, but I will make it clear what these are.
I created Fractal and Simulation folders within the FileDrop folder, and am in the process of moving things where they belong as I upload.
As an OT side note, it seems that recently I do my best work when listening to the song "Cenobites" by Aborted.
I don't know why, but it seems some songs just open the mind and let creativity flow; for me Brutal/Technical Death Metal seems to do the trick.
Particularly Origin, Aborted, Analepsy, Hour of Penance, Vital Remains, Hate Eternal, Grave, Marduk, etc..
I wonder if others have had a similar experience? ....Albeit likely most listen to a totally different genre hahaha. Ian
