Nice to see you back jesse!
Great new version, that Monte carlo renderer is too cool!
It seems that lights have slightly different positions in main render and MC.

Thank you so much for this amazing update, Jesse! The Monte Carlo renderer is fantastic but I have a question. Does it end when it reaches a special raycount or do I have to stop the rendering when I think it looks OK?

ty... It seems that lights have slightly different positions in main render and MC.
Hmm, it shouldnt... can you give me the params? Does it end when it reaches a special raycount or do I have to stop the rendering when I think it looks OK?
It doesnt stop, you can alway stop and continue later on, but dont forget to save the m3c file. Usually there should also be a noise filter, but i have not the time to do it in this release. I recommend for noise filtering something like a nlm filter what can be found in fitswork for example. |

Thanks for your quick reply! Using MC takes quite long but the fractals look so damn good. I will most likely re-render all my fractals. You're a genius.

When saving as PNG with v1.86 I get this error message:
Access violation at address 005E3CC9 in module MANDELBULB3D.EXE. Read of Adress FFFFFFFF.
Ok, should be ok if you uncheck the 'png par:' option in the 'Save pic' tab, i fix it in the final release! thx |

I've just done another test and realize it was me who inadvertly modified the light position. Sorry.  |

Probably I have too outdated PC to use it for fractal generation, and I'm thinking about new PC. But probably problem with win2K is compiler with no intention of code working in win2K;)

Was searching myself for a free program for my tests, but only found cinepaint, a follow up version of a filmgimp? or so... forgot.
But the windows version is a bit crappy, couldnt use it anyhow.
So i am also interested in further suggestions...
For 16 and 32 bit (no 48 ) you may use GMIC, not the gimp plugin that is limited by the gimp 8bit bottleneck , but the command line that anyway include a nice viewer for all OS http://gmic.sourceforge.net/ |

Btw, with 48 bit i meant 3x16bit RGB, for saving RGB png's... |

Oh no for 16 bit i intend 4x16bit for RGBA (A for the transparency), so no problem for 3x16 RGB ,  Humm Ty PhotoComix, i am a bit nerdy when it comes to commandline usage of programs but i give it a try! GraphicsMagick http://www.graphicsmagick.org/index.html is more straightforward for similar task but is again for command line |
