Though Nanoscope was using smoothed iteration values to distinguish cases like 1, 2, 3 from cases like 4 from its inception.  But what happened then, because I don't think you are using Nanoscope for the lovely images you are publishing here, and you haven't completed it have you? Did you get discouraged by all the different situations that can occur? Because it sometimes discourage me

I've just uploaded version 2.2.3 I tried to fix the crash bug when clicking to zoom further while the render of the current view is not yet complete. This should of course be possible, as it is in all other Mandelbrot programs. I have still not been able to crash it now, but one can never be sure... I also made it possible to zoom in and out with + and - keys, and even with the mouse wheel, even though I don't have a mouse, I only use touch-pad. So I have no idea if it works, but I hope so, and that in and out behaves as expected  else if(uMsg==0x020A){//WM_MOUSEWHEEL if((short)HIWORD(wParam)<0) SendMessage(hWnd,WM_KEYDOWN,187,0); //IN else SendMessage(hWnd,WM_KEYDOWN,189,0); //OUT }
Unfortunately the stability of biphome.spray.se is not reliable currently, but if you see my profile picture the site should be accessible...

Hi Carl.
Your site has been down most of today.
I wanted to see what the speed options are when creating the zoom movies from the individual frames. E.g., what does a speed of 25 mean?
I've managed to re-create all the zoom images after modifying the zoom level as you described in your reply to my other post, and it's allowed me to view the sequence and correct a few glitches that it has found along the way.
There's just a few frames that I've not been able to fix, but hopefully one or two out of 2012 is not too noticeable.
Thanks again.
Simon

To anyone viewing my posts and finding missing/broken links to a website called www.needanother.co.uk, I still own the domain but recently cancelled my server (saving £30/month) so even though the domain address exists, it points nowhere. I hope to one day sort something out but for now - sorry!

Yep, it is down also now, but comes up sometimes... I wanted to see what the speed options are when creating the zoom movies from the individual frames. E.g., what does a speed of 25 mean?
It means that there will be 25 movie-frames per key-frame. Use FPS 30 if you want to put it on youtube, which means 30 movie-frames per second.

Great, it would be nice to see it

Try the following:

Super awesome! The mousewheel zooming is inverted. Scrolling up zooms out and scrolling down zooms in. Other than that, it works.

Thanks, but still not on your super 32-core hardware, right...? Ok I will flip the if-condition

New versions available Kalles Fraktaler 2.2.4: mousewheel zooming swapped to be as expected. The floatexp 'double precision arbitrary exponent' class made 2-based which yielded more than double speed when zooming deeper than e4920 Key frame movie maker 1.15: a resource leak found and fixed. Only affected thouse 45+minutes movies...
Is anyone interested in having this project available as open source?

 I made a fresh install of windows 7 on my computer and Kalles Fraktaler still crashes and the same way. Now I really don't know what else to do.

Okay, I know what the problem is. There was one last thing I thought could have been it, although highly unlikely, being the two physical CPUs. I disabled one of my two physical CPUs in the bios and Kalles Fraktaler works perfectly now. Apparently indeed Kalles Fraktaler can't handle the two physical CPUs! I found it so unlikely that I actually decided to do a fresh OS install before trying this, and I gotta say I'm very surprised. The operating system should be a layer between the hardware and the software so this should either not be possible or it should happen to more programs, but it doesn't. What the hell?

That's a bizarre situation. Only time I ever had a problem with a cpu was when I had an AMD processor and I purchased some software that would allow the user to speak into the microphone and dictate to the word processor. Unfortunately, it only worked on Intel processors and simply crashed on AMD processors, but the shop that I purchased it from wouldn't accept that the program was at fault and wouldn't offer me a refund. Thankfully, I only paid £5 or so for the software, so I didn't complain too much at the time.

I also have AMD processors if that helps. Intel may be better overall nowadays, but their products are so expensive...
