Apophysis 7X 15C - Hotfixes!I have compiled a few hotfixes for the recent 15C release:Apophysis 7X 15C - Hotfixes!1 year ago in Personal More Like This
+ Fixed the MT renderer - was not properly reading transform opacity values
+ Fixed render log - was showing "32 bit integer" still
+ Changed the default settings so they comply with UAC-enabled systems
+ Fixed loonie variation code - had potential division by zero
+ Added scripting back in 32 bit-version - waiting for TMS to deliver 64 bit-support
+ Added a few one-click helper scripts to simplify things like settings reset and running 7X lite

Final-Transform fix for 15DHey guysFinal-Transform fix for 15D6 months ago in Personal More Like This
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: http://download.xyrus-worx.org/apophysis/apo7x-15d_hf1.zip
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

Fantastic Fractal FabricationsIf ya haven't noticed I've become addicted to Ultra Fractal in this past week!! I put off trying the demo for well over almost 2 years but finally gave in and tried it!! I can't afford the 80 bucks for the software so I'll just continue making wallpapers with it hopefully even after the 30 day trial! So... I thought I'd feature some of the UF images I've collected here at DA!! Maybe I should do another Flash slideshow!!Fantastic Fractal Fabrications2 years ago in Personal More Like This

Apophysis 7X Console Renderer - UPDATE 2For all the techies (and animators) out there: I have something for you! I present: a console interface for Apophysis 7X! Now you can easily batch, script and stack your renders. Here are some core features:Apophysis 7X Console Renderer - UPDATE 21 year ago in Personal More Like This
Stable multithreading for single-, dual-, quad-, hexa- and octa-core systems
Render your flame files as if they were a set of keyframes (like with Apophymator) - even with different amounts of transforms per flame
Make use of automatic plugin downloading (and the massive heap of new built-in variations)
Experience faster rendering through optimization of the rendering core
This build features a set of variations which were built-in from existing plugins (to reduce the need of .DLL plugins):
- log (derived from *zy0rg's logn plugin; includes the "base" variable)
- polar2
- cross
- wedge
- epispiral (derived from *cyberxaos' Epispiral plugin; corrected name to be all-lowercase as defined by the naming convention)
- bwraps (derived from bwraps2; removed the "2" in the name)

I feel so awful that work on the script was delayed over and over last year.
Personal plea:
My flesh and bone life has been and continues to be complicated in so many ways since at least 2 years ago.
If there are any Deviant personal injury lawyers that can help a poor old fellow out, my gratitude would be immeasurable.
From all the reading about laws I've been through it appears I have more than enough cause to bring the problems I face to a court to judge. (But legal systems are intensely complex, so I do not have any way to know without professional help.)
I want little more than to remove myself from this house- (actually apartment-) of-horrors t

I think you get the idea...
Anywho! I took a look at it in C4D and, although amazing, I noticed how complicated it was, and tried to reproduce it in Blender's Cycles render engine.
Here's the light setup in Cinema 4D:
Here's my reproduction setup in Blender/Cycles:
Here's my result:
While not perfect, it's a fair representation of the GSG version, and I only used one plane divided into three parts. Left is orange, middle is yellow, and right is light blue...bypassing the softboxes and the red and dark blue colors on the ends.
Just thought I'd share, in no way am I saying "don't buy his light kits!", because he makes some really cool stuff, as well as makes some fantastic tutorials
