I hope it is ok to post other artist's fractal work here. I found this on Renderosity, and Wow, what a masterpiece! It caught my attention even though it is from several years ago, created with an older version of UF. It was made by Daniele Lupo, one of the UF formula writers. He even posted the parameters in his formula file, among others. I attempted to upload it but not all of the pieces

I am an avid fan of XaoS and it has a very unique fractal called Catseye. There isn't much documentation on it, I don't know where it came from, and I have no idea what the actual formula looks like. Perhaps it can be uncovered somewhere on GitHub? It has some incredible potential when varying the bailout value and the different fractal planes. Here are some designs I worked up mostly in Juli

Hi I am new to the forum & new to Ultra Fractal. I havn't done fractals for a few years & originally used Apophysis but I am loving learning what UF can do.
I have a quick question. I know this can be done for Apophysis though must admit have forgotten how to do it but can gradients be created from outside of UF & used within UF. If so is there a tutorial?
Many thanks Anne

Hello, Fractalers,

I just found out about a YouTube video showing a massive zoom, and I would like to share the URL with you. The video is 9 minutes long. Here it is:

Hi All,
The July 2017 collection of the parameter files of UF (2 upr's) is sent to the cloud..

Hello All,
I'm new to the forum and I have been studying Ultra Fractal for several months now, there sure is a lot to learn. I've been loving every minute of it and I have many questions. For starters, I somehow came across a lot of beautiful gradients in the KCC folder. I don't see much discussion about them anywhere and I'm sure there are other pre-loaded gradients accessible in UF.

Complete newly to UF. I'm going through the tutorials and I've run into a problem with pasting data from the tutorial into the program.

The instructions say to copy this text, then paste it into the gradient editor.

Hello! I don't know much about this program, and I'm really bad at math so I don't know what I'm doing here. But I have a sequence of numbers that I would like to somehow punch into the software and see what it looks like.

How would I do this?

I understand I have to make complex numbers, but I dont know anything about writing equations so I was wondering if someone could help me with that

My fractal art differs from the typical ones created by UF as being less "complicated". That they are more simplistic is primarily due to lacking advanced mathematical skills. Most begin with a posted formula that I randomly and almost haphazardly revise without awareness of what the results will be. Examples are posted at www.nsapc.com/fractal. I would like to hear from others who use a similar

QuadMirror, in jlb.ulb, takes a block of your fractal and mirrors it multiply in all four directions. You specify nx and ny, the number of repeats horizontally and vertically. There are two ways to specify the block to repeat.

(1) Visualize your fractal divided into nx by ny blocks. Specify any point in one of them. This block will be unchanged, and the others will be mirrored around them. Th

The May 2017 collection of the parameter files of UF is sent to the cloud. Two of the files couldn't be rendered by me. Strange.

PixelCoordinate, a UtilityTransform, takes as argument a fractal coordinate z and returns the corresponding pixel coordinate.

Is there a similar transform that takes as argument a pixel coordinate and returns the corresponding fractal coordinate?

If not, I could write one.

Of this the most I liked this spot. Throught it isn't so good for fractaling. It's the "wait, wait and wait and then baah, finaly apears" formulas. Pixel and as outside:

Hallo, ich bin ganz neu hier und teste noch die Demo Version. Möchte UF aber wohl gerne kaufen denke ich. Was mich als erstes Interessiert. Sind die Standart Fraktals die ich im Programm mitgekauft habe frei? Sprich, darf ich daraus meine eigenen machen und die für Videos und Cover nutzen? UND wer könnte mir evtl. über einen Chat etwas helfen bei meinen ersten Versuchen.

I have Ultra Fractal running on my windows PC and the server running on my MacBook Pro. When I add the server in the networks tab it keeps connecting and disconnecting very quickly. On the server in the log I see lots of the following message:

Error loading parameters: Could not find 'Julia' in '::00000000:2'.

Any idea what could be wrong?

I cant afford the full software and I just want to mess around and learn about fractals.
Is there a free version? I'm not a company or anything I just want to have fun with fractals on my own.

Do I have to reinstall my whole OS if I want to use it after trial period expires? I dont see any other alternative.

I am able to update my formulas successfully in UF, but cannot upload some new formulas I have written.

The past week or so, I've been developing a new coloring algorithm. The basic idea was to use the minimum iteration of the image to help determine how the image was colored.

I know the software reports the minimum iterations for the current image in a separate window, but I haven't seen any way to access that information within a formula. Is there any way to access that information for colori
