It has a rich array of filters that can completely change the look of the image. It has good colour altering controls. It has no help, but is easy to use see my instructions.
Tierazon has few bugs and runs fast. It is my second-favourite program, but this may be because I am most familiar with it, having made 9, fractals using it. The fact that I still have not exhausted it tells you a lot. Most of the fractals on this site were made using Tierazon 2. Tierazon is more subtle than ktaza or Sterling.
It also allows you to make fractal movies by specifying the start and end of a zoom sequence - impressive stuff. Ktaza v0. Colours tend to be brilliant and it has 48 built-in algorithms. Unfortunately, ktaza has quite a few bugs. Despite this, I recommend it strongly. Sterling v1. It produces rich colour and interesting textures.
In many cases these instructions also apply to inkblot, iterations, sterling and flarium, which are quite similar. I have not attempted to cover every feature of Tierazon. In particular I have omitted those features such as 'convolve' or fractal parameters that I have not found useful. Like all first-rate programs, Tierazon rewards exploration.
Anyone wishing to add to these notes is most welcome to email me. If I have not mentioned a neat trick you know about then please let me know.
My thanks to Tamrof for some valuable additions to these notes. Click here for a Tierazon tutorial written by Doug Harrington. Starting Up Your monitor must be set to show at least 16k colours, preferably 16 million bit colour or more. Now set 'color palette' to bit or whatever is the highest setting. When you start Tierazon you will see a disappointingly small and somewhat ugly picture. Better things will come soon! The first thing to do is to maximise the screen by clicking on the square at extreme top right.
Image Size You can enlarge the image by changing the 'XY' parameter at the left side of the screen. Try doing so and select x It is good to work with a small picture to start with to try out different options. Remember that the bigger the picture the longer it takes to repaint it each time you change something. I use the size x while I am trying out what different filters see later do to a particular algorithm.
Sooner or later you will want to create a full-screen image eg x, if that is your screen resolution. Zooming In The most basic tool for working with fractals is the zoom control. This allows you to enlarge any part of the existing image to fill the entire window. To zoom into the image, position the cursor where you want to put the top left-hand corner of the rectangle you want to zoom into, keep your finger pressed on the left mouse button and move the cursor down with the mouse to where you want the bottom right-hand corner to be.
When you have drawn your rectangle take your finger off the left mouse button. If the zoom box is not quite where you want it then take your fingers off the mouse buttons and move the cursor to one of the sides of the zoom rectangle. Now press on the left button and move the rectangle to where you want it. Take your finger off the button when you are happy with the result. When you have made your selection give a click to the right mouse button.
A little window will appear. Click on the "zoom into rectangle" option. Better still, just click on the magnifying glass in the tool bar. The program will now enlarge the area you have picked to fill the entire window. If you find you have zoomed in too far, you can decrease the zoom factor in various ways.
One way is to paint the image as x and make the zoom box larger than the entire image. Position it carefully so that the diagonals cross over where you want the middle of the new image to be. A better way to zoom out is to open the fractal parameters box in the toolbar labelled "F" and set "Magnif" to a smaller number.
Cutting the number in half is a good way to keep continuity while zooming back out. Algorithms Each fractal image is a snapshot of a particular mathematical algorithm. Group Since Oct 29, Save Cancel Drag to set position! Overview Discussions Photos Members Map. Hi All. Basically the group is for posting. If you see someone accomplishing something you wish to know how to do, ask them on the image page or via Flickrmail. An excellent program. This amazing program is unique in that it allows you to create 3D IFS fractals.
You do not use formulas as in most fractal programs, instead you work with visual building blocks called Holons, and conventional operations such as scale, rotation and position, creating what I call, "Fractal Scupltures". This program has an abundance of additional features including lighting effects, layers, metamorphs, filters, animations, and many other advanced graphics type program features.
There is now a trial version of this software. A very fun and adictive program! You can see some of the fractals that I have created with this program from the Fractal Galleries page. I have also written a basic tutorial using this program, check out the tutorials page. It includes a variety of formulas. It has beautiful coloring and lighting effects. It is easy to use. There is no formula editor or scripting. Fractal Explorer is an excellent and popular freeware program that generates fractal images and animations.
This program is one of the most feature rich freeware program currently available. XaoS is a real-time interactive fractal zoomer, and allows you to zoom easily and smoothly into the fractal. It displays many different fractal types, including Mandelbrot, Barnsley, Newton, Phoenix, and many more. This program produces excellent "classic" looking fractals.
A fun program. It can be used in conjunction with the Ultra Fractal program. At last check there were irtually no help files currently available within the program, but some tutorials are available elsewhere. Fractal Science Kit is a fractal generator that generates a fractal image from a set of properties that you can set to control the fractal generation process.
Example properties include the type of fractal, the size of the image, and parameters to control orbit generation, data normalization, oversampling, embossing, smoothing, gamma correction, etc. I have not yet tried this program, but looks like it offers an extensive list of options.
ChaosPro is a real time freeware fractal generator with support for many different fractal types 2D and 3D , true color support, animation support. Due to its integrated compiler it is quite fast even if you write your own formulas within ChaosPro. Excellent free program. Visions Of Chaos is a professional high end software application for Windows. It is simple enough for people who do not understand the mathematics behind it, but advanced enough for fractal enthusiasts to tweak and customise to their needs.
I have not tried this program but it looks very interesting. It can create animations, 3D modeling etc. Paul is no longer selling the full version, but you can download the light version zip file from this link: MBF Lite.
Features include: Complex 3D shading, hard shadows, ambient occlusion, environment mapping, fog, Depth of Field, Key-frame animations.
