Fractal Architect 3D – It’s Here Now

2D, 3D, and mixed 2D/3D fractals.
No limits on the number of variations types that can be handled – 330 variation types and growing
Expandable variation type library – compatible with both CPU and GPU rendering.
Full Xaos support.

330 variation types are included (more to follow).

easy to make, easy to switch between
no DLL’s
Source repository included – no hunting all over the Internet for Apophysis DLL’s
Full Variation source code included – licensed under GPL3
Can render files from any variation set – no need to shut down app and move DLL’s
Automatic switching between 2D and 3D fractals
Support for both 2D and 3D variation sets

Video Bitrate control – controls video image quality – much better quality videos
Video animation motion blur – true animation blurring
Workflow now oriented to rendering to Image file sequences

The rendering engine has been improved in many ways.

Xaos and Linked transform support in OpenCL renderer
Xaos Variants plus Linked transform support by random fractal generator.
Video animation motion blur
Render video animations to either image file sequence or movie
Create movie from image file sequence utility included.
2D and 3D Hack fractal rendering – 330 variation types
Support for Direct color variation types
Render state always preserved when rendering to file
Continuous rendering mode
Duo pane display of rendered images – shows incremental improvement

As always, full support for rendering on both GPUs and CPUs. Rendering on the GPU is so much faster than CPU rendering.

Many new variant categories:
