This release fixes a number of bugs, improves workflow, supports better compatibility with Chaotica and improves how animation parameters are saved. Before now, some animation parameters were kept within a flame file, and others were specified on the fly in the Final Render dialog. However, this was not conducive to sharing animation parameters between users. There was no way to save information such as the number of rotations, frames per rotation etc. in a file. Thus, if one artist were to give parameters to another to render, the latter would have to speculate as to how they wanted it rendered. Now, in the Animation table on the Flame tab, these values can be specified and saved with the file. As noted in the list below, there were many variations which appeared differently in Chaotica than in Fractorium. The listed variations should now have the same output between the two. The old behavior is retained using flam3 compatibility mode. As always, a big thanks to Michel Mastriani

This release is the first in two years and adds a few small features and fixes some bugs. In addition to that, we've upgraded to Qt 6.5.1 which means you need to reload your stylesheets for things to look correct. As always, a big thanks to Michel Mastriani (@triptychaos) of Brazil for helping with the Mac and Linux installers. Also, thanks to the various contributors on Bitbucket who submitted pull requests. --User changes -Add Clear Sequence button to the Sequence Panel. -Add animation preview in the sequence generator output pane. -Add two new options --width and --height to EmberRender and EmberAnimate to allow the user to specify absolute dimensions to render the image at. -Add a new option to EmberAnimate --ignore-existing which makes it skip rendering a frame if the files from all of the requested extensions for that frame already exist. -Add new preset dimensions to the right click menu of the width and height fields in the editor. -Make various fields in the Options
