END OF AN ERA, FRACTALFORUMS.COM IS CONTINUED ON FRACTALFORUMS.ORG

Hi everyone,

I'm super new to Mandelbulb 3D, and have only been messing with it for a month now but I've learned a lot from the online tutorials. So I made my first short animation and now after hours of rendering I discover I can't play the .m3a file on my Mac, and I can't seem to find any converter out there that will recognize it to convert it to mp4 or whatever.

What's the secret on getting this to play on a mac?

Thanks!

Hi there,

Thanks for the reply. I'd never heard of an .m3a file before and didn't know if it was video or what... I did save it as a .gif and have the frames in Preview…now I guess it's a matter or converting that one. Thanks for the help, and I'll see what I figure out here tonight.

update:

Ok I figured it out. Super low resolution because I thought that would take less time but it was still several hours on my poor old Macbook Pro. Anyway, figured out how to get it into a format that iMovie would accept and added a little music.

Wish I'd spend a some time on the actual colors or background but I was just doing a test run to see if I could get the actual animation process to work.
