Mandelbulber 1.06 - for Linux x86, Linux x64, Win32 and MacOS

Open source program (GNU GPL) for rendering photo-realistic 3D fractals

Free download: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mandelbulber/

Website: http://sites.google.com/site/mandelbulber/

User manual: http://sites.google.com/site/mandelbulber/user-manual
Tutorial for creating animations: http://sites.google.com/site/mandelbulber/getting-started

New features in version 1.06:
- Added many simple formulas (modifiers) for hybrid sequence: x^2/(x + p); y^2/(y + p); z^2/(z + p); r^2/(r + p);
   spherical fold; x^p, y^p, z^p; x * p; y * p; z * p; x + p; y + p; z + p;
   axis X angle multiply by p; axis Y angle multiply by p; axis Z angle multiply by p
- Added possibility to render MengerKoch formula. It is added as an option for IFS formula (Menger Sponge mode; edge x,y,z)
- Corrected ray-tracing algorithm. Fog and specular highlights weren't calculated properly in reflections.
- Improved quality of raytraced reflections by adding binary searching in DE algorithm
- Fixed problem in CalculateNormals() function. Sometimes when all deltas were zero, it produced NaN value. It caused white dots in raytraced reflections.

This is very interesting, because Mandelbulber has only English version. I have to check configuration of the installer. Thank you for info about this problem.

thanks for the new version. works fine under windows, but still have problems under (suse) Linux. sad

  • v 1.01 works fine.
  • v 1.05 installs normally, but crashes instantly, when pressing the render button (regardless of loaded param) with the terminal message: invalid machine-command (translated from german).
  • v 1.06 doesn't install with "no permission" even as super user


i took a look at the install scripts. they differ from version to version - even destination folders sometimes.

  • can i use an older install script without destabilising my system?
  • can i uninstall versions pre 1.05?

regards

Have you tried compiling it under linux? Before upgrading ubuntu 10.10->11.04, I had to compile it myself as some library paths had changed.

The install script looks straight forward enough. This is a long shot, but you're sure you're in the sudoers group? You might want try changing the install script's first line to:
Code:
#!/bin/bash -x
- this should  print out every statement as it is executed, and point you in the right direction.

Some paths have changed over recent versions, though the mandelbulber binary has always installed into /usr/bin - I think. Whenever you install a new version, it overwrites the old binary (the extracted contents of the mandelbulber*.tar.gz archive are safe to delete after installing).

@taurus: if you build using 'install' try empting 'usr/bin' folder before; you find this folder inside the extracted contents of the mandelbulber*.tar.gz file.

4mac: using macports's gcc46 (4.6.1) there's no need to change anything no more inside makefiles; on top of that the same makefile and files for 64 bit is working for 32 bit as well! (:

nice program
Currently i am running it on OpenSUSE 11.3 64 bit
no bugs found yet , but a suggestion

i almost exclusively do not use jpg's ( the compression artifacts  are a "pet peeve "of mine )

the output can be set to 8 bit or 16 bit png
BUT
the "get pallet from image" is jpg read ONLY
-- not a great idea --

 seeing as libpng is there as an #INCLUDE

it would be nice to import a pallet from ALL image formats supported

other than that , nice job . Been having some fun with it
like  these

Hello,
I'm from Germany, my english is not the Best. I have installed this programm since 5 days, i like it very much and testing it out and I have made some nice detailed renderings from the Mandelbulb.
Now I have a question: How can I chance IFS, Hybrid and Mandelbox? I have opened the programm but I can only chance things in following menu's: Fractal, View, Shaders, Lights, Image...
Greetings,
Andrea

Welcome to the Community, Andrea81!
By default You have Mandelbulb chosen in the first tab of the program (Fractal Formula Type). If You change it to say Smooth Mandelbox, all options in 'Mandelbox' tab will be "at Your disposal" etc. So try changing Fractal Formula Type in first tab and experiment. As far as I understand it's merely a trial and error path we've chosen ;-)
With best regards,
Sfumato.
