Ultra Fractal Animation Edition 5.04 Portable | 6.01 Mb

Ultra Fractal is the superlatively good tool to create fractal artwork and fractal animations. Whether you are a graphics designer, a professional fractal artist, a video producer, or a complete beginner, Ultra Fractal 4 makes it tranquil to create beautiful fractal pictures, animated textures, and moving fractal backgrounds.

Features:
Get started readily with the integrated tutorials
It is easy and fun to disturb using Ultra Fractal with the built-in tutorials. Starting with the basics, you be inclined soon learn how to create your own fractals, change the standard, add layers, use masks, and even create animations. You can too download the PDF manual to print the tutorials.
Explore thousands of fractal types and coloring options
First inquire into the standard fractal types in Ultra Fractal to get familiar through them. Then connect to the online formula database to download thousands of more fractal formulas and coloring algorithms contributed by other users.
In Ultra Fractal 5, formulas be able to now use plug-ins which lets you easily mix and match features. By combining different plug-ins, the possibilities truly become endless. For more information, see Plug-ins in the Ultra Fractal cure file.
Finding the best formulas and classes is made easy ~ the agency of the new formula rating system.
Enjoy unlimited deep zooming
You be possible to zoom to virtually unlimited depths with Ultra Fractal. Deep zooming is to the full integrated and works with all fractal types and coloring options, strange to say those you have written yourself!
Use the classic selection box shown beyond, or zoom with the mouse by Shift-dragging or double-clicking interior the fractal window. Panning, rotating, stretching, and skewing are also likely, of course.
Tweak parameters with the versatile Explore feature
Choosing parameter values is a uproar with the new Explore feature. Experiment with new parameter values ~ the agency of moving the mouse cursor over a coordinate grid in the Explore window, in which case the Fractal Mode tool window shows a real-time preview of the spring.
Explore works with integer, floating-point, and complex parameters.
Color your fractals and connect transparency effects
Coloring your fractals is easy with Ultra Fractal's grade editor. Drag the gradient curves up and down to create soothing ranges of colors, or use the Randomize options to quickly try multiform color combinations. You can also use the gradient editor to join transparency effects.
Compose fractals with layers, masks, layer groups and Photoshop-like lose modes
One of Ultra Fractal's key features is layering. You be possible to place multiple layers of fractals on top of each other to become united them and create intricate coloring and texturing effects. Add mask layers to appoint transparent areas that will let the underlying layers shine through. Organize kin layers in layer groups. Store layers or groups that you frequently use in the layer presets menu to access them quickly. You be able to even select multiple layers to edit their parameters together. (Creative Edition without more.)
The Layers and Masks tutorials in the help file will exhibition you how to use layers effectively.
Image import
Import PNG, JPEG or BMP images in your fractals with the built-in image import feature. Simply select a coloring algorithm that contains every image parameter, and you can select any image on your computer to appliance.
The coloring algorithm determines how the information from the image is used. For pattern, the standard Image coloring algorithm just displays the entire image in the fractal window.
Create fractal animations easily by the powerful animation features
In Ultra Fractal, every fractal is potentially one animation. Every parameter can be animated individually. Animations can be of the same kind with long as you want and use any desired frame rate. Editing animations is comfortable with the powerful Timeline tool window, shown below. You can furnish animations with optional motion blur to image sequences or to AVI movies. (Extended Edition barely.)
The Working with animations tutorial in the help file will gain you started with creating your own fractal animations.
Open and dispose your fractal files
Organize all your fractal-related files with the integrated Explorer-like toothed browsers. Quickly scan formula files and parameters with the new thumbnail witness and the powerful search tools.
Copying and moving fractals, formulas, and parameter sets is unconstrained with drag-and-drop or copying and pasting.
Render your artwork to produce fractal movies and transcendental-quality images for printing and publishing
Create stunning fractal movies and lofty-quality images in full color at any size and resolution with the Render to Disk feature. Built-in anti-aliasing and proposition blur smooths and sharpens rendered images and removes jagged edges. Ultra Fractal exports and renders to JPEG, Photoshop, TIFF, PNG, Windows BMP, Targa, and AVI files.
Multiple give jobs can be queued and rendered sequentially or simultaneously. You be possible to also render multiple fractals from a parameter file in a unmarried step.
Accelerate fractal calculations by connecting to other computers on your network
Connect to other computers on your local network or even forward the Internet to speed up fractal calculations and disk render jobs. Ultra Fractal distributes calculations into the bargain the connected computers to accelerate them, which can easily double or treble the processing power of your own computer. (Extended Edition only)
Write your admit fractal formulas
Every fractal type, coloring option, and transformation in Ultra Fractal is a rule that you can edit and customize at will using the built-in syntax-highlighting formula editor. Add your own fractal formulas and coloring algorithms and upload them to the online ~ry database to share them with other users.
There is no thrive penalty — your formulas will run just as fast as all other formulas for the cause that they are all executed by the same fast optimizing built-in form compiler. The formula language includes complex numbers, arrays, variable types, garble arithmetic, warnings, global sections, and debugging support. Full documentation with a searchable compiler respect is included.
New in Ultra Fractal 5 is support for functions and classes in the compiler, what one. makes it possible to write extensible formulas that can be combined with different plug-ins in any way imaginable.
Share fractals and increase help on the mailing list
Join the free Ultra Fractal mailing fillet to discuss tips and tricks and share your fractals with other users. Learn greater degree of about Ultra Fractal by opening and examining the fractals posted ~ means of other members, and get help from experts in a friendly atmosphere. See also Support.
With excellent help file and PDF manual
An crack help file in Windows HTML Help format is included with Ultra Fractal that is pliant to read and full of information. The help file is available online as well. Alternatively, you can download or order the repress file as a PDF manual for easy printing. There are likewise Spanish and German translations.
