Another great potential fractal is this, should be easy to do in KIFS (single scale, continuous etc) but I can't find out...  http://fav.me/d4l5hf0 |

the mengers .... i implemented a hybrid menger with random distribution of holes 10 years ago in my fractalmovies.com screensaver, it is using opengl, but might not run under win7 ... http://fractalmovies.com/index.php?/archives/2-Fractalmovies.com-Screen-Saver.htmlall sorts of mengers could be made, basically you could do the whole alphabet on the 3x3x3 cube ....  |

Parameters sometimes could be too much. When they are visualisated and with tips like in UF, its more easey, but if there are 10 windows with numbers it loses usability for most of the folks not so good with PC. |

Yes, using the classic theory. (Allowing discontinuity) Kifs are more complicated because you need a continuous spatial function so in hybrids and for every rotation you don't see any cut. |

Hey, just scale (the other scale is automatic), cx,cy,cz, plus cx2,cy2,cz2, is not that much |

I like the fractal H. It looks like a scaffold of a building. I wonder what the final building will look like...

How in the world you are always able to solve all problems! Unfortunately, that's not true. I wonder if you are also able to make a "general" version that calculate the limit, and the other scale, so that Scale1 is a user parameter. JC4(x,y,z,alpha){
scl=(alpha+2);
scl1=scl/alpha;
a=1/scl1;
r=x*x+y*y+z*z;dd=1;
for(i=0;i<MI && r<100;i++){
x=abs(x);y=abs(y);z=abs(z);
if(x<y){t=x;x=y;y=t;}
if(z<x){t=z;z=x;x=t;}
if(x<y){t=x;x=y;y=t;}
if(y<a && x>1-3*a+y){
x-=1;z-=1;
x*=scl1;y*=scl1;z*=scl1;dd*=scl1;
x+=1;z+=1;
}else{
x-=1;y-=1;z-=1;
x*=scl;y*=scl;z*=scl;dd*=scl;
x+=1;y+=1;z+=1;
}
r=x*x+y*y+z*z;
}
(sqrt(r)-1.75)/dd
}You get a menger sponge when alpha==1. Remember, this is not a KIFS. The continuity (of the orbits) is broken even if the returned DE is continuous thanks to a suitable cut (the "if(y<a && x>1-3*a+y)..."), but it could be impossible to find a simple one. Using this formula in a hybrid will almost certainly introduce discontinuity artifacts. The H-Menger doesn't seem to be a KIFS either. It could be obtained by using the "half eaten menger" thechnique. Those could easily be made in MB3D with DIFS in DECombinate mode ("Ma" comb.) if there were "hollow" primitives (for example a hollow cube for which the DE is negated so it is turned inside out). The "Baird Delta" (found in the same site as the "jerusalem cross") IS a KIFS  . (Made with mandelbulber)

Wow excellent!!! I will certainly try to stick it (the JC3) inside a m3f using my assembly messing (some day)  Baird delta looks very cool, even if I have no idea about how you did that?  ) |

Why you use if(x<y){t=x;x=y;y=t;}
if(z<x){t=z;z=x;x=t;}
if(x<y){t=x;x=y;y=t;}instead of the folding of normal menger; if(x-y<0){x1=y;y=x;x=x1;}
if(x-z<0){x1=z;z=x;x=x1;}
if(y-z<0){y1=z;z=y;y=y1;}And yes! It's very hard for me to change this part since it's a stack juggling.  |

x-y<0 is the same as x<y
Switching x and y, when done in a different order, is the same operation.
x1=x;x=y;y=x1; // is the same as (t=x1)
x1=y;y=x;x=x1; // it's just done in a different order
Both of the variations order x,y, and z in terms of greatest value. The "normal" Menger orders variables x>y>z. Knighty's orders it y<x<z (z>x>y). You'd have to change the variables (in the if/else statement) below the ordering if you want to do the standard Menger ordering and maintain the formulas structure. Wonder what happens when you do it out of order?
@knighty- Nice implementation. I really want to learn to visualize these ideas a bit better. Didn't pick up on the scaling factor from alt.fractals website.

I tried basically every possible combination so finally I found the only correct one, yays Obviously, zooming in reveals some awful noise but it's great  thanks sir K!   Uploaded at ImageFra.me |

Nicely done Darkbeam. I think there should not be any noise. Could you try this (its' the permutation (x,y,z)->(y,z,x)): JC4(x,y,z,alpha){
scl=(alpha+2);
scl1=scl/alpha;
a=1/scl1;
r=x*x+y*y+z*z;dd=1;
for(i=0;i<MI && r<100;i++){
x=abs(x);y=abs(y);z=abs(z);
if(x-y<0){x1=y;y=x;x=x1;}
if(x-z<0){x1=z;z=x;x=x1;}
if(y-z<0){y1=z;z=y;y=y1;}
if(z<a && y>1-3*a+z){
x-=1;y-=1;
x*=scl1;y*=scl1;z*=scl1;dd*=scl1;
x+=1;y+=1;
}else{
x-=1;y-=1;z-=1;
x*=scl;y*=scl;z*=scl;dd*=scl;
x+=1;y+=1;z+=1;
}
r=x*x+y*y+z*z;
}
(sqrt(r)-1.75)/dd
}@Darkbeam: In my previous reply, I was (indirectly) asking for a hollow (inverted) BoxIFS shape to be used in difs. Possible? @Benessi & Darkbeam: It's not very complicated to find a KIFS representation when We already have a picture of the fractal (and aobviousely when a KIFS representation is possible). Ok! Sometimes it's tricky and you usually need to do some geometry and algebra. It's much simpler to begin with 2D examples. That's what I usually do and that's what i did for the "Jerusalem cross". Here is the code for the "Baird Delta" and the process. Notice that the code is a straightforward transcription of the process): BD(x,y,z){
r=x*x+y*y+z*z;dd=1;scl=1.5;
for(i=0;i<MI && r<100;i++){
//equilateral triangle symmetry (in order to duplicate the little copies)
y=abs(y);
t=2*min(0,x*sqrt(3)/2-y*1/2);
x-=t*sqrt(3)/2; y+=t*1/2;
//y=abs(y);//not necessary
//PI/2 rotation about x axis
t=y;y=-z;z=t;
//set (1,0,0) as origin
x-=1;
//scale
x*=scl;y*=scl;z*=scl;dd*=scl;
//Back to center
x+=1;
//norm squared
r=x*x+y*y+z*z;
}
(sqrt(r)-1.)/dd
}(Process in the attached picture) There is also another version of the "Baird Delta" attached (fragmentarium script). |

Oops! I've just checked the DE And it turns out that there are discontinuities which will cause some sand artifacts. Sorry for that.
