Apophysis 7X 15C - Hotfixes #8!To excuse myself from the artificial hoax from earlier, I have a hotfix release for 15C for youApophysis 7X 15C - Hotfixes #8! in Personal More Like ThisHere the changes:
+ Fixed two strings regarding the Chaotica integration. They were always english. The language files have been adjusted accordingly.
+ Fixed the "dot"-bug with the waves2-, noise- and crop-variations (and possibly more) occuring when you use multithreaded rendering. The origin was a structural misconception with the opacity handling. It now works smooth & fine! No corrupted renders in my own tests. If you have some after this release, please report!
+ Added file type registration scripts in the portable (ZIP)-package
Installer (32 bit)

Poll summary: Installer or ZIP-packageI recently raised the poll "Installer or ZIP-package?" here. Now it's time to take a summary out of the answers!Poll summary: Installer or ZIP-package in Personal More Like This
I noticed that some of you wanted to answer "both" but that was not the questionI was asking what you were using to install 7x on your hard disk. That's why "both" was not in the clickable range of answers
The results were kind of equal. 52% of you are using an installer, the rest is using the ZIP-package. So my conclusion here is that the installer needs to come back.
And it will.
However, plugins will not be installed on your system with the installer anymore. That out of three reasons:
+ Apophysis 7x64 doesn't support them
+ The plugin path is customizable
+ The amount plugins being integrated in the installer before is now integrated in Apophysis itself
Now you need to give me some time to get the installer creation software back up and then I'll compose an installer for you

Apophysis 7X 15C - Hotfixes #4!Oh mai, it seems that Apophysis 7X jumped on some kind of rapid-release scheduleApophysis 7X 15C - Hotfixes #4! in Personal More Like This
You kept reporting problems which I of course want to straighten out. This time, mostly about the newly introduced curves feature. I'm pushing updates on a daily basis - when possible - until they are kind of sorted out. At least the critical ones. Here is hotfix #4!
+ Changed color curves feature to use regular cubic béziér splines. They are weighted internally still but you can't change it from the GUI (which is not really necessary anyway...) ... it's kind of a hack, though, to bring you back the original coloring (not so vibrant and glary) but keep the possibility to adjust the color curves. I want to keep the weights - this is why I didn't remove them but it gives me a bit of time to fixing the maths!
+ Moved the curves window into the adjust window
+ Fixed the plugin loader code AGAIN to have the original list item coloring in the 32 bit version (white for basic built-in, blue for bu
Apophysis 7X 15C - Hotfixes #3Two things changed:Apophysis 7X 15C - Hotfixes #3 in Personal More Like This
+ Added color curves dialog
+ Fixed plugin recognition routines. Variations, which were already built-in were loaded anyway which lead to an "Access Violation" storm in the editor. Thanks again ~morphapoph for tracking the origin of the problem in such a masterful way!
The color curves dialog is very simple and straight forward. Works like the one in Photoshop. Or Chaotica. Or GIMP...and it's not perfect. It's a new feature and maybe a bit bugged. But we'll see how much better it gets over time

A few common Apo7X15C problems and their fixesI get an error about Apophysis7X.rand and/or Apophysis.undo when I start ApophysisA few common Apo7X15C problems and their fixes in Personal More Like This
It's a Vista/7-issue which spawned after using Delphi XE2 as the main compiler (since 15C) You have multiple possibilities:
1. Right click the Apophysis shortcut or EXE-file and select "Properties". Go to the "Compatibility" tab and check "Run as administrator". Try again.
2. Copy your Apophysis folder to the desktop (or "My Documents") and try running it from that location.
3. Go to the control panel and disable UAC ("User account control")
A permanent fix is on the way.
I get a crap ton of access violations when I open Apophysis and/or the Editor window
My assumption is that there is an incompatibility in your settings. Reset them the following way:
1. Exit Apo, hold the Windows-Key and hit "R" on your keyboard. Enter "regedit" and hit return.
2. On the left side, browse to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software" and find the folder "Apophysis 7X".
3. Right click that folder and click "Delete".

Apophysis 7x64 almost done! But......there is a downer!Apophysis 7x64 almost done! But... in Personal More Like This
I was using Delphi XE2 to compile all this. It's the first and only Delphi compiler with 64 bit support. Now, I realized I had to upgrade the TMS Scripter Studio component which enables scripting for you guys (I was using the ancient version I purchased for Delphi 7 yeaaaars back) Problem: I don't have the for it (EUR 95) and I have to rely on crowd funding to bring you scripting in Apophysis 7x15C (32 and 64 bit)
I already got rid of a few other components (design-time XMLScanner for example) but unfortunately, the TMS is not really replaceable. And it's expensive. I don't want to cut out scripting. I already had to take out the EXIF-writing from the render window but I think there is only one person who really uses that...it's more a decorative thing - you won't miss it. Scripting, however is essential, I would guess. Sucks that it's been built on top of a commercial component in the first days of Apophysis!
If you want to keep scripting in fu
Okay I knew this was coming!I just had a conversation with *cyberxaos about the fact that I technically have access to the database which holds the parameters shared with MyFlame.at. So let me clear up something in order to avoid other discussions like that:Okay I knew this was coming! in Personal More Like This
You are bound to read the terms of sharing before you enter anything into the application. Allow myself to quote from there:
Everyone can see the fractal data you share - without being logged into anything.
There is no reason to be concerned about whether I could possibly use the fractal data you share with this service because anybody can at any time anyway.
The last 5 shared fractals are shown to everyone in the ticker on the left side of the main page. All other fractals can be seen by anyone who has the corresponding link.
This means: even if your share is too old to be in the ticker - it is still public because somebody else might alread
MyFlame.at - going live!I have teased you with a secret project going on in the last days and now it is time to reveal what was cooking! I present you: MyFlame.at - a new, sleek yet rich web application to share your fractal flames with your friends and fellow fractal artists!MyFlame.at - going live! in Personal More Like This
It works like PasteBin - paste an Apophysis-fractal into the box and you will have a short link to the fractal in the top right corner to give your friends so they can grab the flame you shared. But not only that. It also features:
Author tagging - if you wish so, you can tag the fractal you shared with your Facebook-profile. This is optional but useful if you want to assist people in properly crediting you if they decide to tweak your work. If you paste fractal parameters which already have been shared using this application into the box, it will "recycle" the link being created before and also maintain the correct author tag.
Meta information - MyFlame.at automatically parses the fractal

Major new feature are even more DOF controls and the possibility to combine the famous Buddhabrots with flame fractals!
Complete list of changes:
- new parameters "area" and "exponent" for DOF (depth of field). The parameter "area" controls the size of the area with low blur, the parameter "exponent" controls the increase of blur with distance from the focus point
- restored the old method to calculate DOF (before V0.62) and allow to switch between old and new method freely (i. E. all your old flames look as you designed them)
- buddhabrot mode for all "classic fractal" variations (beginning with "fract…")
- "lazyTravis" variation my Michael Faber
- the brightness slider has now its maximum at 20.0 (before this was 10.0)

Major new feature is the possiblity to visually specify the focus point for calculating dof (depth of field) effects. So its much more easy to to create fractal images with awesome "depth" effects. There is short tutorial on those new features:
Complete list of changes:
- more accurate calculation of dof (depth of field)
- freely specify the focus point in dof
- special edit mode to specify the focus point visually (by dragging it with the mouse)
- simplified triangle editing modes (move, rotate and scale is one mode and uses the same controls as view editing mode), free point editing is the same as before
- allow to change the camera yaw angle by dragging the mouse in the preview window (hold left and right mouse button)
- mouse view editing: modify camera pitch by dragging the mouse in the vertical (y) direction, modify camera roll by dragging the mouse in the horizontal (x) direction
- "circus" variation my Michael Faber
- FIXED a bug
Mouse editing fun: JWildfire V0.59 releaseThis time the new release has not really a lot of new features… but one new striking one: the long awaited view editing mode is now availableMouse editing fun: JWildfire V0.59 release in Personal More Like ThisYou can now just drag, rotate and zoom your fractal the way it should have been working from the first day
This mode is now the default editing mode, it works as follows:
- left mouse button: drag the fractal ("CentreX" and "CentreY")
- right mouse button: rotate ("Roll") the fractal
- middle mouse button/mouse wheel: zoom ("Pixels per unit") the fractal
Complete list of changes:
- new interactive view editing mode (move, rotate, zoom)
- color and color symmetry does also affect the new fract_* family of variations
- lots of internal refactoring regarding the dancing flames editor (does not affect current state of features but makes it more easy to add new features soon)

- new gradient manipulation functions: invert and reverse gradient
- new gradient manipulation properties: blur and frequency
- changed the layout of the main toolbar so that it better resizes according to different screen resolutions
- new built-in script example (based on "Mobius Dragon" by penny5775)

Plugin fun: JWildfire V0.52 releaseJust released JWildfire V0.52 after a rather long time.Plugin fun: JWildfire V0.52 release in Personal More Like This
I had started to create an alternative external renderer (specialized to render movies more quickly) in the meantime. This release is something like an "intermediate release". It has lots of internal optimizations, many new plugins to play with and some bugs fixed. But the new renderer is not yet included because this would have been just to much work in this time period.
So this release contains many smaller enhancements and you may look forward for the upcoming V0.53 which will bring up some really new stuff

from CV of the fractal community! Her heart is broken from the loss
of a dear family member that she took care of for many years!
She's such a wonderful lady and has given so much to us and I'm
sure everyone she knows! We were so lucky to have her as CV for
as long as we did!
I've been trying to think of some way to ease her pain and show her
how much she has meant to us! I'm not coming up with much! The
only thing I can think of is to do some mega features of some of her
beautiful work! Near as I can tell, she could easily have had a DD
every single day with the amazing fractals she's created and shared
with all of us!
Please join me in honoring our favorite CV by featuring some of your
favorites of her wonderful work! Maybe we can lift her spirit if only for
a moment by showing our appreciation!
Here are some of my favorites of her fantastic work!![]()

More DA weirdness...This morning when I first logged on I decided to check the bottomMore DA weirdness... in Personal More Like This
of my profile page and see who visited, right above that is a random

over that I had never seen before let alone fav'd!!!!! I've also seen
many others pop up in there that aren't in my favorites!!!
What the heck is going on!!!!!!
Then in the wee hours this morning I was doing my weekly Google
to see where my images are going and found one in a forum so I
hopped on over there to check it out!! A guy had posted one of mine
and told the other that I do so many and gave the address here! The
other fellow came and checked it out and replied how much he liked
them and that I had an RSS feed from DA!!!!! SO.... I decided to check
it out and ...guess what!!! DA is sending our images all over the world
for folks to see and steal thru RSS feeds!! Now they can steal our work
without even having to come to DA or our pages!!!!
Now it makes perfect sense why DA favor
The greatest resource on DA!I thought I'd share with you all my idea of the absolute best resource DA has to offer.The greatest resource on DA! in Personal More Like This
Although the tutorials are fantastic and can be found for almost any program an artist could use, it's not the best! Even though it's the reason I found DA!!
The gradient packs while so very nice and filled with all the gradients anyone could ever hope to use still isn't the best resource I've found on DA!
The parameter packs while filled with some of the best fractals for tweaking are fantastic and most new fractal artists would be lost without them, they aren't the best resource either!!
The plug-ins make life so very nice for those who do this on a daily basis and give us something different to explore and experiment with, but alas it's not the greatest resource either!!
The scripts also make tweaking and exploring new things very nice and give us a quick and easy way to the start of another tweaking expedition!! But again, it's not the best either!!!
The groups here at DA also make our artistic

I went to bed the other morning and had some pretty intense pain in my chest, thru my
shoulder and down my left arm. It had happened last week also but taking an aspirin seemed
to fix the problem. This time it was very intense and I took some Nitro that I have to keep
handy at all times. The pain disappeared once the Nitro went to work but came back even
stronger after 15 minutes! I figured I was in trouble.
I hopped in the Jeep and took off for a hospital where I had done some cardiac rehab in
the past. They took real good care of me and did their best to figure out what was
going on but never did find the c

I know I'm still a little behind with messages and deviations....and I thought I could finally keep up once I finished with my school, but it seems like almost everyday something new comes up that I have to do and in the evening I'm too tired so I prefere to watch a movie and log on here only to check the groups I'm a contributor at and maybe answer to some comments. I've also started to go to the gymand i'm surprised by the fact that I actually like it...I've always been the type who likes to go jogging in a park or so. So now that takes up from my time too.
Yesterday I took a short, one-day trip near the Danube. I was once again amazed by how wonderful it was. The road wasn't so good when we returned, but it was worth it. Maybe I will upload some photos
I hope everyone's had a nice weekend

I am presently preparing to make a 1,000 mile long distance move and I will not be around a lot the next month or so. I will be checking in here and there, but will most likely have to delete the devs in the stacks and will not be able to answer all comments. I will give it my best shot, but if you do not hear from me, then know this is why. I have so little time and so much to do.
Many thanks to all of you that support me and have given me faves, new to watching me, and for the point donations to keep my group :#only-wallpapers: a super group for an additional year. All of this is very much appreciated. Thank you!!

True heroism is remarkably sober, very undramatic. It is not the urge to surpass all others at whatever cost, but the urge to serve others at whatever cost.
They served, and died, so that we might live, FREE.
In their honor, we must always cherish and passionately guard the LIBERTY they died defending..
Just a little reminder of what Memorial day ia ll about.
Thank you for your sacrifice....

Electric Train
A few days after Christmas, a mother was working in the kitchen listening to her young son playing with his new electric train in the living room. She heard the train stop and her son said, "All of you sons of bitches who want off, get the hell off now, cause this is the last stop! And all of you sons of bitches who are getting on, get your asses in the train, cause we're going down the tracks."
The mother went nuts and told her son, "We don't use that kind of language in this house. Now I want you to go to your room and you are to stay there for TWO HOURS. When you come out, you may play with your train, but I want you to use nice language."
Two hours later, the son comes out of the bedroom and resumes playing with his train. Soon the train stopped and the mother heard her son say, "All passengers who are disembarking from the train, please remember to take all of your belongings with you. We thank you for riding with us today and hope your

Not much but it is something that we can not forget.
"American girls and American guys will always stand up and salute;
Will always recognize
When we see ol' glory flying,
There's a lot of men dead,
So we can sleep in peace at night when we lay down our head.
My daddy served in the army,
Where he lost his right eye.
But he flew a flag out in our yard 'til the day that he died.
He wanted my mother, my brother, my sister and me
To grow up and live happy in the land of the free.
Now this nation that I love has fallen under attack.
A mighty sucker punch came flying in from somewhere in the back.
Soon as we could see clearly through our big black eye,
Man we lit up your world like the Fourth of
Merry Christmas to allTwas the night before Christmas, when all through the houseMerry Christmas to all in Personal More Like This
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there.
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads.
And mamma in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap,
Had just settled our brains for a long winter's nap.
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.
The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow
Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below.
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
But a miniature sleigh, and eight tinny reindeer.
With a little old driver, so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment it must be St Nick.
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name!
"Now Dasher! now, Dancer! now, Pran
