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

Hi Krzysztof (and other developers/contributors)

This is more a question to ask if some features are easy (or not) to implement in future versions of Mandelbulber, and whether you think they
are worth implementing ?
Although i think the software is already fantastic, and as it is currently provided free i somewhat feel a bit cheeky suggesting
improvements (for want of a better word). Many thanks again for providing this program with which i get many many many many hours of enjoyment from.
 

1- would it be easy implement some kind of camera memory spots ? Just a couple of store/recall buttons that store 2
more locations in the fractal other than the saved file position (Say, Location 2, Location 3). I was thinking along the lines of exploring the fractal after editing and being able to store more than one shot. The memory spots need only store the viewpoint, rotations, zoom, FOV and camera type.
Does anybody else think this is a good idea ?

2- Are the random pallettes based on Red, yellow, green, cyan, blue, magenta ? If so would it be possible to have some boxes where we
could tick/untick any of these hues ? The reason i ask is that i often only want to have certain hues in my random pallettes, this would make it easier to quickly find colour combinations that i want (it can take a long time to find sometimes). I know that i can use JPEGs too (and often do) but i often find that i do not have JPEGs with the right colour pallettes either. Its just an idea i thought might be worth considering, what do you think ?

3- This is probably impossible without major re-work - Could the spheres, boxes and water primitives have separate raytraced reflectons ? I think it would be nice if they could have reflections on, while the fractal surfaces reflections is be switched off.

Speak soon, Enjoy.

Kind regards. Shaun.

Hi,

Yes i think the JPEG pack will be come in handy.

Thanks for the welcome, love Mandelbulber and dont ever see an end to the possibilities of this software.

Regards. Shaun.

GPU rendering + network rendering would be nice

(Eon Vue has a very nice network renderer called "rendercow" I love that.)
