Dear UltraFractal folks,

I’m writing in the hopes that someone might assist me. I’m new to Ultra Fractal and am trying to replicate a very specific look for an art project I am developing. The closest example that I can find is one posted by Robert Töreki here: https://www.ultrafractal.com/showcase/robert.html
In his caption he mentions that it is “A study of using t

Somehow, accidentally, I tagged an image as an animation, with one parameter having the animation indicator. As far as I know, I didn't do anything to do it, certainly not on purpose, and Animation was turned off as far as I know.
(1) How could I have done it, and how could I avoid it in the future?
(2) How should I undo it? I didn't see any way, so I edited the upr, taking out the code for

I've created serveral animations where I create with outputing slides to png's.

Though I noticed sometimes if I make a zoom animation too fast... the slides look blurry. Are there any tips anyone can give as what is a good "time frame" so the zoom is not too fast ratio to time so it wont look blurry?

I hope that makes sense.

I can upload a few frames if it helps.

Thanks in adva

Hi folks. I’ve made a zoom animation. I like it and now I want to extend it by adding another section at the end. I want the zoom speed to stay the same for the whole animation. In other words, I don’t want the movie to zoom in slowly during the first part and then zoom in quickly during the second part.

I’ve found the image I want to use for the new end frame. But UF w

Mark Townsend's Fractalia formulas in mt.ufm in essence is

xnew = quadratic in x and y
ynew = quadratic in x and y
znew = xnew + flip(ynew)
Since each quadratic has 6 free parameters, he made 6 versions, Fractalia-1 through Fractalia-6, so the user could switch among them to help find good parameters.

My version instead uses one or two steps of randomization of parameters to help find a g

I messed up my panels somehow.

At one time I could have both panels open at the same time and docked on the right side.

Now I can only have one open at a time .... if I click one, the other closes.

Any ideas how to fix them.

If at some point you read this .... could use a little help.

Progressing through but now stuck on page 11 section 4.4.

Cannot figure how to "drop or attach" the Mask On layer to the Edge Highlight layer.

Hi ... from a newbie to UF and fractals .

Came across a tutorial by Velvet Glove on a marble sphere.
( thanks for all the articles Velvet Glove)

So I'm trying different things and have image below and could use some advice.

With each layer added, the layer below becomes less visible or a little duller.

My question is how would I correct this ... is this where a layer mask would

Hi All,
I'm trying to upload a new folder of fractal formula, as2.ufm, but how can i do it? Because on the author login the software allows only to replace as.txt or as.ufm etc....etc.. so i tried to upload as2.ufm keeping as.txt and i think that now i have upload a new .txt and not as2.ufm.
How can i do? Can someone one help me?
Thanks and good evening
Andrea

I really need to start naming the layers so others might like to see new unknown techniques.

I am basically lazy when it comes to building fractals with a lot of layers, I have grown use to not getting confused and knowing where I am. This is quite a large set and takes a time to load depending of course on your RAM. Have a tweak if you wish?
