I recently picked UF.5 up again to do some math experiments. I wrote a coloring algorithm, but calculations became very slow at a zoom depth of 1e24. I read UF.6 was a lot faster and maybe perturbation could also help (as I'm using Mandelbrot).
Opening the fractal in UF.6, the coloring algorithm doesn't seem to work anymore. I tried loading a non-perturbation version of Mandel, but it still d

Where can I find examples of animated fractals with more than a million iterations in color and possibly accompanied by music
Hi, this is my first topic here and I want to know how do I make matrices in Ultra Fractal.
Thanks!
Anybody know how to do this?
Some formula writing would be easier if the Formula class in common.ulb had in its protected area
complex m_c
and functions like
func SetC(complex c)
m_c = c
endfunc
complex func GetC( )
return m_c
endfunc
Including these changes would not break any current fractals and would allow simpler switching from Mandelbrot-type to Julia-type.
Has anyone else experienced a massive slowdown running windows 11 compared to windows 10? I ran the exact same Ultra fractal file on my 2 computers, and the windows 11 computer is about 2.5x slower. With the faster RAM, SSD and CPU, I was expecting about a 2x increase on performance in the newer computer. Both computers are running the same version of Ultra fractal.

Dear fractal lovers,
I would like to inform you that I am putting an end to the collection of UF fractals from the Ultra Fractal forum on the web via https://www.ultrafractal.com/forum/.
The numbers of fractals that still appear on this forum are sufficiently small to be kept by everyone.
Of course, the monthly collections remain on the web and can still be consulted and downloaded t

Hello,
I am writing a coloring algo at the moment and I tried using min(val1, val2) where val1 and val2 are two floating point values, and the function does not exist (error: invalid function). So I went looking for an equivalent function and I cannot find one. Does UF not have such a fucntion? It seems like such a basic thing. Am I just overlooking something?

Hello,
I have a bunch of gnarl formulas, and I generally color only the inside. Is there a way to set a default inside coloring algo such that the previews show anything interesting at all?
Thx in advance,

The rotation parameter is write protected.
Somebody know a elegant way to do rotation in the formula?
Usable in deep zoom.

I have created my own formulas and have even created an entire script for Ultrafractal with interchangeable parameters. I was wondering, Has anyone tried using the formulas created in Ultrafractal and tried to create a 3d fractal creation in Mandlebulb?
I am trying to figure out how I could do that and am for some reason having a mental block or is it just not possible?
I know this is
Hello all! I'm new to this, getting deeper into UF and enjoying it immensely!
I've been scouring around trying to find a particular orbit trap, wondering if anyone here recognizes it. Looks a bit to me like foam bubbles...
Any help or direction would be appreciated!
I am pleased to announce that I am deploying the first release of my plugin library pack of vectors, quaternions and matrices! Feel free to send feedback here, send bug reports and feature requests and in FractalForums!
https://fractalforums.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=5310.0;attach=30889
Includes:
mat2
mat2x3
mat3
mat4
quat

I still stuck on my old software.
Somebody know converters to UF, for example from ChaosPro?
Is it possible to set and calculate a variable in a formula, and read it in a coloring code?
https://www.ultrafractal.com/help/index.html?/help/formulas/standard/lambda.html
in case somebody interested, I found a normalisation of the lambda formula.
init
a = (p + 1) / (2 ^ p)
loop
z = (a - z^p) / a z c
I had recently stumbled upon an idea... what if we could visualize formulas from quantum mechanics and general relativity as fractals? Is there a way to write formulas based on the mathematical and scientific equations behind them?
This is a follow-up to my previous Tutorial, “FormulaX Plug-ins”. If you haven’t read the introductory quote from the Ultra Fractal (UF) help file in that posting, do so now, and upload the latest version of the UF formulas. Here’s the upr and the image it produces.

Hi All,
In the month February 2024, 3 new fractal parameter files in the collection.
You can find the whole existing collection at the cloud of Microsoft:

Lets say I have more than 1 fractal window open.
I realize I can go to the top menu Window - ( choose fractal window )
Is there a way to assign a keyboard short cut to switch between the fractal windows ?

Hi All,
I'm working on a new game The formula is TMan in Russell Walsmith orgform.
Basically is my SlopeTMan that i'm rewritng and re-structured but i have a problem.
I have implemented the TMan of Russell and i added also a normal Mandelbrot that i attach under.
In your opinion is it correct?
That parameter is correct?
Try it to p1 (0.0 , 0.1), you will see the black line, i t
I’ll start with this quotation from the UF help file:
Since the first release of Ultra Fractal in 1998, the formulas written for it have become larger and more complex. Even though many formulas are quite similar, they could not share any common code, but had to be written as stand-alone formulas. For example, if you wanted to add just one new feature to an existing formula written by s

Hi there,
I love kcc outside coloring trap shapes. There is one however that doesn't work correctly when setting the background color to zero opacity, it's the bubbles trap. The other shapes are ok and the black disappears. I've even tried different formulas but with same results. Does anyone know why this is?
I've included an example and for some reason the params are very long, sorry
Hi everyone,
I'm very happy to announce the release of Ultra Fractal 6.06. This free update for existing version 6 users introduces native Apple Silicon support, so Ultra Fractal will now run at maximum speed on all new Macs using M1 or later processors. For both Mac and Windows, this update also includes various bug fixes.
You can download it here:

I'd like to compute animation parameters outside Ultra Fractal and then import them as keyframes at specific times. For example, I'd like to import different seed keyframes and animate between them.
Is there any way to do that?
Right now I have to manually enter keyframes and values within the keyframe editor and that takes a very long time for longer animations, especially if I'm changi
Is there a way nowadays to export a flame (a single layer, actually) that is in an UPR as a .flame or to the clipboard or revert it back to be imported into Apophysis 7 or to the clipboard without any extra UF codes so that it can be read and redone?

No new fractal parameters for 2023/12 and 2024/01.

If you use the code window, open the search dialog, copy a text from the code, mark the search field in the dialog, paste the text.
The text is written in the code window, not the search dialog.
In Formula plug-ins, setting
periodicity=0
in the default section is not allowed. It should be allowed, as it is in non-class formulas (*.ufm).
Ditto for setting
method = multipass
So I played with UF again today. Somehow I'm ... still around ...
