Apophysis 2.02 FAQ-Tutorial by datagram

Tutorial suited to explaining much of the interface that isn't documented as well as helping anyone who is new, and probably quite a few things veterans can go ahh! to, learn to make quality renders and clean up their images before and during rendering.

Also explains each individual render method, among many other things.

Comments WELCOME.

First of my "deviations" to ever hit 1,000 hits/downloads. Thanks much to anyone/everyone who this helped, who used in efforts to learn more about flames/apophysis, etc.

I'll be redoing the tutorial soon to have many corrections and addendums. When that will be? Not sure, kinda busy with many ~Apophysis related matters! But sometime in the near future, I promise.

Dallion-Devoid Featured By Owner Oct 19, 2004

I recently wrote a tutorial myself (photoshop
and terragen tute, not apo), and so I can
really appreciate the time and effort you must
have put into making this. I was looking for
a quick guide to make sure I know everything
I could want to about the basics, so this is great :- )

Good work dude

datagram Featured By Owner Oct 20, 2004

Yeah I actually just downloaded your tut a couple days ago when I decided to get more into space digi art. But terragen doesnt work on my computer...XP doesnt like it :/

Dallion-Devoid Featured By Owner Oct 20, 2004

:'-( You've got XP? Damn.

"When Will this Madness End!?"

I avoid XP like a cat avoids taking a bath.

Came with the laptop, and I really dont care about memory hogging or optimizing the hel out of my system because its powerful enough to handle everything without fail.
