Some params to play withTHANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR FAVOURITES NICE COMMENTS AND USEFUL REMARKS!
i want to share some parameters with you...

the first is... well, base is combination of curl3d and ejulia - kind of gasket? i submited more of this kind recently with only few changes... it is playable combo

here are parameters:
<flame name="Foam" version="Apophysis 7x Version 15B" size="1500 1000" center="0 0" scale="270" zoom="1" oversample="1" filter="0.2" quality="1" background="0 0 0" brightness="20" gamma="4" gamma_threshold="0.02" estimator_radius="9" estimator_minimum="0" estimator_curve="0.4" enable_de="0" plugins="" ><xform weight="2" color="0.621" curl3D="1" coefs="-1 0 0 -1 0 0" post="1.931852 0.517638 -0.517638 1.931852 1.5 0.5" curl3D_cx="-1" curl3D_cy="0" curl3D_cz="0" chaos="0 1 1 0 " opacity="1" /><xform weight="2" color="0.966" symmetry="0.95" eJulia="1" coefs="0.176777 -0.176777 0.176777 0

A new(?) apo trick - includes paramsIf you've been hanging around aposhack at all the past few days, you've probably seen me excitedly linking to images like these:

Well, now I'm going to teach you how to get that intertwining.
We are going to start from the sphereye-bubble template that comes with Apo 7x. If, for some reason, you don't have that/don't know how to get to it/are using a different version of apo, here are the params:

Plugin pack for Apophysis 7x64 + a little reminderHi guys

Since I obviously don't have anything better to do this fine day, I sat down and made 94 (!) existing plugins for Apophysis readable for the 64-bit-version of Apophysis 7X (commonly known as 7x64) - I'm talking about almost all of the plugins available as source code on SourceForge.net including my own. I just skipped some odd non-standard ones, those which are built-into Apo7x15 and dc_image. I don't know what else is floating around in outer space so if you note me the source code (*.c), I'd convert some more too.
It cost me an imaginary pack of cigarettes and 90% of my remaining sanity. So here is the download link:
click me!
Please make sure you read the file README.TXT before you send me messages and comments whining about that it doesn't work for you

Also, be advised that I just compiled them. I did not test each single one of them. That'll be u

From Resources to Fractal Art #1Hi deviants !
Welcome to my new series : "From Resources to Fractal Art".
What is really interesting in the fractal community, is the way deviants interact between each others to share their knowledge with tutorial or Parameters Pong (Sharing Parameters to tweak the main fractals).
Therefore, in this article I'm going to select a resource randomly and show you how to start from a tutorial to achieve a wonderful fractal.
This week, let's take a look at `lindelokse tutorial : Apophysis 3D Blooms Tutorial
This tutorial is an evolution of her first tutorial about 2D blooms.
Since Chiara explained us how to create bloom a lot of deviants tweaked and had fun with this technique!
Here's a lil' sample of what you can find in this category !

3rd Annual Apophysis Holiday Bash At VAA!It's not just toys, outerwear, and electronics that go on sale for the holidays. My apophysis courses do too! And you won't even have to camp outside a Best Buy at midnight on black Friday to participate.
From Nov. 1st to Dec. 22nd, I'll be tutoring Apophysis online through Visual Arts Academy, and registration is open now. These eight lessons combine my basic and advanced courses for $40, 20% less than you'd pay if you took the two courses separately! In addition to the lessons themselves, you get access to the VAA forums (for personal support from yours truly), a param pack of interesting fractals to get you started, and access to my own parameters as a gift to my students.
What do the lessons cover?

Installation of not just Apophysis itself, but also plugins and scripts.

An overview of the UI, including the main, editor, and adjustment windows, and basic functions like saving, rendering, and transferring params via copy and paste.

And yet another web site!It seems I'm doing more web sites than fractals anymore!
I'm working on a new one for my artists site and stuck on
which way to proceed! I wanted to do something different
and more geared to wide screen monitors! Seems to me that
the majority of surfers now have larger screens than the
960 pixel sites they recommend!
Anyway, I was wondering if you could visit this site (not finished)
and let me know if you like the full width pages or if it looks better
with the standard 960 pixel width sites. The sites fairly fast
but the software I use bloats the images when publishing!
Here's the link http://fractalholic.com/kenburns/
Thanks for looking here and the site!

Winter CZ Featurei would like to thank all who faved, commented or featured fractals i prepared! i was not connected recently but now i am and hope you will like this feature... both artists are from czech republic and i really admire their fractals! but do not forget to check their galleries - you will find more than fractals!

Outstanding Fractals For MARCH 2013:iconlovewhiteplz: There are SO MANY fantastic fractals submitted in this month of March.....that choosing the best of the best was really difficult!:iconlovewhiteplz:
:iconlovewhiteplz: I hope that you will enjoy looking at these wonderful beauties as much as I did selecting them. Please do take the time to visit the pages of some of these fine examples and leave a comment......we ALL appreciate it when some one cares enough to write a word or two about our art.....so make someone's day, choose a favorite or leave a comment:iconlovewhiteplz:

Plastics exploitedMy last journal was about plastics. Even though it is not hard to find them, it is hard to find any recent ones. Especially plastics that use some xaos.
So here I am, writing an article about what you could do when creating a plastic.
Therefore this is not a tutorial on how to create them. A tutorial on "How to make Plastics" you can find http://drummerboy08.deviantart.com/art/Apophysis-Spherical-Gems-Tut-158753029
I hope to come up with some plastics, that illustrate how much more can be done, then just creating nice blurred balls.
(I am NOT implying that they do not look good nor that they are be original,I am just showing other ways on how to put everything together).
I am gonna use some xaos graphs.
A triangle means a transform and an arrow means the xaos is not zero. If there is no arrow it is zero.
Now let us start with a plastic that does have blurred balls (more or less).

What happend in the picture ?
The plastic has some gnarly "thing" going on. This is

Final-Transform fix for 15D

by `XyrusWorx, Nov 30, 2012, 3:15:27 PM
Journals / Personal

Hey guys

I know it's been some time but I'm having hell of a release going on here. So I just didn't came to check on what's wrong with the saving of final transforms. I finally made it so that I'm not there 7am to 10pm every day. This means: it's fixing time.

To provide you with an acceptable solution, I just reverted the behavior of FXes to the one of 15C. So that you at least get to use 64 bit plugins / scripts AND final xforms

Here it is: [link]
It's a patch so just replace the EXE files in your installation. If you didn't update yet, you can with this. In this case, you also just replace the EXE files. Remember the release notes from the original 15D package, though. It contains valuable information on how to use 64 bit plugins and compile multi-architecture plugins (32/64) from existing and new plugin code.

See you soon

Thank you for this useful patch!

~Mobilelectro Jan 8, 2013

I have been asking around about the old 32 bit plugins working in the 32 bit version of this Apophysis. Not able to get any real answeres if they are working for others but I know in my case the folder is set right now because I do see the 64 bit ons you sent me in the folder????? No other plugins are showing even though they are in the same folder?????

`XyrusWorx Jan 8, 2013

Well it is so, that the 32 bit version of Apophysis can only load the 32-bit plugins and the 64-bit version can only load the 64-bit plugins. If one of the versions doesn't load it's plugins, it's somehow misconfigured. I can tell for sure that the latest built of 7X - 15D (the one I released) loads the plugins properly in both versions.

~Mobilelectro Jan 8, 2013

I will check again. Is there a place I can send a screen shot or I maybe I could just upload it to my gallery.

In it you can see the 32 bit apo open with only the 64 bit plugins you sent me showing up. I can include the folder where the plugins are stored on the screen shot that also shows more than just the 64 bit plugins included. Some of those older plugins are ones I got from you like pre and post bubble wrap. In other words , I'm not trying to add some funky plugins that may not work on their own. All of these plugins work fine with Apo7X 15b.

The version I am trying out came from your fx fix update post.

~Mobilelectro Dec 28, 2012

I think you've done some great things with Apophysis. This bug was stopping me from trying to use this version. If you like I will give you any feedback of things I might notice while trying it out. I am assuming the 32 bit version also needs new 64 bit plugins because they did not show up in dropdown list? Any 64 bit plugins out there you know of just to give that a try? Thanks for all the effort you have put into this and I hope I can make at least of few fractals with it worthy of your efforts.

`XyrusWorx Dec 29, 2012

I have a set of legacy plugins emulating old/deceprated variations compiled for 32 and 64 bit versions of 7X15D - if that helps you? It's mainly there so you can edit old flames with 15D.

~Mobilelectro Dec 29, 2012

Thanks Xyrus, I would love to get any plugins into Apo7x showing up in the menu so I could build from there. I downloaded your fix for the Finalxform but it seems the exe for 32 bit and the one in the 64bit folder have exactly the same when I tried copying them to the same folder, maybe it is just the name only so I will try altering the names of the files and opening them.

`XyrusWorx Dec 29, 2012

It's a patch, meant to be copied over the buggy version. So yes, they are the same.
I have to find the plugins on my disk. I made them for personal use. I'll send you a link via note when I have them.

~Mobilelectro Dec 29, 2012

Thanks about the plugins! I did get the 64 bit version into the same folder as the 32 bit Apo7x by just changing name to Apophysis7X64bit.exe instead of Apophysis7X.exe. When I opened it it was the 64 bit version. In your dowmloadable zip foder they had the same name, both called Apophysis7X.exe.

`XyrusWorx Dec 30, 2012

Oh yes, that's correct. It's just how they have been compiled. Delphi spits them out with the same name and usually, I rename the EXE files before I pack them. This time, I didn't.
