Impressive animation. Buddhi you are really bringing 3D fractals to new heights.

Agreed - this is fantastic. He adds features more quickly than people can even ask for them.

I think Buddhi could open a paypal account to take in a few donations to support his development, he really does deserve some gifts.

Thanks  embarrass, but only what I need is enough free time. Money will not help smiley. The best gift for me is to see your renderings generated with Mandelbulber  cheesy

Holy cow!

That animation almost made me cry Buddhi, so beautiful!

+ You are a great person!

I hope to get some hardware soon that is more compatible with your app!

AMD's 6 core CPUs might deliver the best bang for the buck!

Just got to say what a nice man Buddhi is - he doesn't want any money for his wonderful
program! If it was possible to give a gift of time, I wouldn't hesitate!!  cheesy

I haven't tested it on Win7. On Vista 64bit it works. If there are some problems on Win7 (or it works) please tell me.

I have found some terrible memory leak in Mandelbulber. It was around 10GB/hour during rendering of animation  death I have fixed it and released next version (0.71) for Linux and also for Windows

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

Changes:
- reorganized buttons for key-frames - now are on bottom of window
- fixed bug: start_frame and end_frame parameters weren't refreshed in edit fields after loading parameters
- fixed memory leak: missed deallocation memory for fractalParams
- fixed memory leak: missed g_thread_join() function in PostRendering_SSAO() (8MB per each thread creation!!!)

P.S. I have learnt how to prepare and use MinGW (GCC for Windows). Now I can prepare Windows versions of Mandelbulber by myself. Thanks to Makemeunse and Knighty for preparing all Windows ports.

The windows version 0.71 requires libpng14-14.dll  to run but it is not included in the zip, I had to grab it here:

http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/dependencies/libpng_1.4.0-1_win32.zip

Thank you for info. I fought that is not required. I used libpng12 but maybe some component of GTK uses libpng14.

No probs,  it is  LIBGDK_PIXBUF-2.0-0.DLL and  LIBCAIRO-2.DLL that both need it.

Okay, I did notice one issue today while I was screwing around with the 0.71 version at work (Windows XP).  Looking at the messages in the DOS screen of Mandlebulber, it says: Warning! g_thread NOT supported    
Okay, so what's a g_thread?  This issue is also replicated on my home machine (Win7 x64) - going back to the 0.70 version (on both machines), I get (what I guess is) the normal message, which says: g_thread supported
Like I said above, the only problem I had with the 0.71 version was with the missing libpng14-14.dll file, which I copy and pasted from the 0.70 folder.
I didn't really have time to play with the program versions and compare them to figure out what impact the g_thread has on Mandlebulber.  Buddhi, any ideas what this could be, and how to fix it, if necessary?
