How can I open *.kfb files (or retrieve its parameters)?

« on: September 03, 2014, 06:10:28 PM »

Hi!
I'm going through some older/unfinished zooms, and there is one beautiful zoom with a very ugly glitch that I want to correct.
But the kfr-file is missing, so I can't use "examine zoom sequence"
Yet there are many kfb files.
I guess the coordinates and the palette are in the kfb-files as well?
Is there any way I can open a single kfb-file, or to retrieve coordinates&palette in any other way?

I've uploaded the final kfb here:
http://www.chillheimer.de/downloads/00072_2.31e077.zip
(and I have no idea why it ends at 00072 instead of 1...)

Regards!

No I don't think so ... you're screwed. hurt

As far as I know, the KFB files are images used as maps to store iteration data. No location, palette, etc. Sorry. lips are sealed

darnit!

Oh, what the heck.. there are "plenty" grin

new locations to explore, never seen by any human being before...

-this actually strikes me right now. how cool is that?! in what other branch of science is it so easy to see/discover things noone ever saw before.. much easier than travelling to the deep sea floor.. -

Yes it's weird, new shapes do not pop-out ... they evolve. So seeing new things when zooming is never "new", since you have seen the history of the shapes stacking together. Deep zooms kind of numb me down, the shapes I see become normal in a short time. Sometimes when I look back the still images after some time (days, weeks), they actually look better.

You are right. Unfortunately no location information is stored in the KFB files...
