I am currently on working on creating some fractals and animating them.

I had a question... I tried doing a fractal animation and it takes about 3-4 days to render and then at the end the log says "Error Saving image (error)

Is there another log where I can figure out what the exact error was?

According to the log it took close to 60 hours to finish so I do not want to go through it

Does Ultra Fractal offer any of the lambda fractal planes, as described in this link? I am aware of the inverse fractal mapping but was wondering if any of these others are possible as well?

I stumbled upon an amazing combination of variables: the standard Pixel formula with Gradient for family Outside coloring (sam.ucl) and the Inverse fractal plane mapping. How does such a transformation take place from a bunch of squares formed by the gradient to a beautiful rounded geometric pattern? I am baffled and pleasantly surprised!

Any idea what's causing the black to appear over the fractal image? I suppose one of the variables is out of range but I happen to like the design I'm seeing on screen and don't wish to vary it too much. Thanks!

The Absolute Julia transformation is made by taking a fractal and mapping each coordinate to its square root.

I usually render to disk with a resolution far higher than that of the fractal window. Sometimes, this means that perturbation mode would probably be used for the rendering, but I have no way of setting the precision level because it's only shown when that mode is also used for the fractal window.

Hence, I'd either suggest such an option in the rendering dialog, or to make the perturbation pr

I have a formula and want to add a new parameter to it without breaking past fractals. The formula has a version number in it, such as this declaration in the default section:

default = 100
visible = @v_SFormula < 100
endparam

I was able to make input fields based on numerical values and Pull downs with Text Choices that equal values. I have a two questions.

I know ultrafractal is specialized programming language so I know it has limitations and I would like to find out if this is even doable...

If I want an input value to be text... would I be able to program it where that text gets printed on the Fractal

I went through the documentation but I am not sure I am understanding correctly.

My question is pretty simple.

If I have a formula file
an Inside COloring file
and OUtside Coloring file

Can I pass a parameter on the formula file to the coloring file... specifically the Color density?

Thank you for your help in advance!

Hi, has anyone found a way to hook a MIDI controller into Ultra Fractal?

I'd love to set the values of some of the function parameters to knobs, maybe have the timeline on a slider.

Any ideas or experiences would be appreciated!

Has anyone tried importing UPR commands from Apophysis into Ultra Fractal? I just get dozens of error messages (see screen shot). There will be something rendered in the fractal window, but it doesn't look much like the original in Apophysis. I've updated the UPR database, but it doesn't help. I've tried exporting from both Apophysis 7X and Apophysis 2.09, with the same result.

I've tried to reproduce the image posted here but failed, even at the "Precise" setting for Perturbation: essentially, the whole center is 'missing'. While such problems can always occur, I thought I'd report this in case you want to make the algorithm a bit more robust.

Hello,

I recently updated my CPU and got a Ryzen 9 3900X with 12 cores and 24 threads and that caused me to find what I think is a bug. To be clear, the program works fine, the image is rendered, so it's more of a nuisance than a real problem.

What happens, is that for images wider than 1931 pixels, certain thread counts will cause 50% of the image centered horizontally to be renderd firs

Hi, I got UF 5.4 on 5/17/2017. I upgraded to an UHD monitor 3840 x 2160 resolution about 6 months ago, and UF 5.4 is unusable because the interface does not support UHD, and the menus and fonts are too small and unreadable. Does the latest version of UF support UHD monitors?

Does anyone know how to write a formula for this fractal?
I've seen it called a teardrop or mandeldrop fractal, but after much experimentation have been unable to recreate it.

There may already be a formula for this in the database, but I couldn't find one.
