Chaoscope is a 3D strange attractors rendering software.
20/05/06 : 0.3
==============
NEW FEATURES
- Full project load and save (including angle, colors, etc.)
- Batch rendering
- Chaotic Flow equation was added
- Polynomial Function equations were added
- Improved preview : now closer to final render
- Options interface
- Folders for each files category
- Gradient is used for Gas and Liquid rather than default black and white
- View window may be resized and scrolled
- Render and preview zoom in/out up to 16x
- Render size can be changed once the project is open
- Ctrl+R to randomize gradients, lights in Solid mode
- Secondary color for attractor in Solid mode
- Search history for the current equation
- Solid Mode transparency mask can be saved
- Attraction animation
FIXES
- The preview brightness was inconsistent between rendering mode changes
- Shadows didn't match Opacity in Solid mode
- Parameters saved with an exponent part couldn't be read
- Floating point exceptions weren't captured during Search
- Rotation is now consistent with scale
- Large preview scale was causing near-plane clipping
- Left-most and bottom-most pixel lines were missing on rendered image
- Half of Julia shadows was clipped off in Solid mode
- Artefacts could appear on shadows edges
- View centering was broken
- View updates were reset to 10 when changing active project
- View title bar wasn't updated when user changed attractor
MISCELLANEOUS
- Sliders are resized properly
- Property palettes can be hidden
- Property palettes position is saved
- More sloppy code clean-up/optimisation
- Better view update indicator in status bar
- Real time view parameters (contrast, gamma, etc.) when possible
- New (more logical) key layout
