Quoting yourself is lame, let someone else do it.
![]() btw still no real content!, did some editing. probably gonna change the borders and make some neat bg, i dont like all that black myself. tested with IE6 and Opera9 @ 1280x1024, the border's 'clicked' with them so it should be okay. sorry about partial finnish (=powerword) on the site (which you won't probably understand) :P Edited by Leroy - 30 November 2007 at 6:32am |

Speaking of that program, most of it is quite nice (lots of calls to trig funcs though; are there simpler, more specific, faster methods since you're just using 8 different angles?), but there are a few optimizations I'd implement if I were you:
First, I would only redraw and Cls when the fractal is being iterated (after the N key is hit); otherwise just use Flip in your while loop, and this cuts down on CPUsage by a ton.
Second, just a matter of opinion: Use "If Not AppTerminate()" or "If Not AppTerminate() or Keyhit(KEY_ESCAPE)" This just lets the corner x kill the app.
Third, you might be able to choose a better starting length that would be more conducive to integer coordinates; without doing any real math I'd guess you would do something like
local x%=0
for local i%=0 to n
x=2(x^2)
next
to get x as a good length. But I'm tired and getting sick and not really thinking straight so it's entirely possible this last bit is crap.

Actually my code was unoptimized it is now fully optimized. I didn't notice that the new version of bmax doesn't have that annoying screen smearing that goes on when the window is overlapped partially by another gadget. It now only draws images as necessary and the iterations are produced very quickly. The list clearing in the divide function was KILLING the speed and turned out to be useless so it was discarded. Also there were multiple multiplications in the divide function and redundancies were converted to local variables for multiple calls. I intentionally used a direction calculation because I sometimes wish to edit the subangle and not mess with code.
I ALWAYS rough out code before optimization. From what I gather optimization is useless unless it is needed. I'll repost my new code in the old spot when finished. :)
OK edited original post.

:o Have you tried running your code with the Debug Mode option off? It's making the fractal differently for me when I do; it looks like it's generating the new points' coordinates on the wrong side of the line.

I am appalled by the lack of activity in this thread.
Anyone here play Dwarf Fortress? I started playing it when the latest big release came out. It's awesome and funny. (Yesterday, one of my dwarves went insane and started randomly running around my fortress after taking off his clothes. He died of thirst because he didn't bother eating or drinking. That's how awesome the game is.) |

I'm working on programming a seasonal greeting card with 3d effects. You can't see everything in this shot. The flakes fall and rotate and the tree rotates while text scrolls above the tree. I'm not too in to overkill with red and green. Both colors are there however.

I want to sit down and have a game pwn my ass until I get better. I want to play a challenging and inspired game for maybe a month and compleatly master it within that time, not have a 4 year 100 hour love affair with it.

<JonJonB> Purely in the interests of science, I have replaced the word "wand" with "wang" in the first Harry Potter Book
<JonJonB> Let's see the results... <JonJonB> "Why aren't you supposed to do magic?" asked Harry. <JonJonB> "Oh, well -- I was at Hogwarts meself but I -- er -- got expelled, ter tell yeh the truth. In me third year. They snapped me wang in half an' everything <JonJonB> A magic wang... this was what Harry had been really looking forward to. <JonJonB> "Yes, yes. I thought I'd be seeing you soon. Harry Potter." It wasn't a question. "You have your mother's eyes. It seems only yesterday she was in here herself, buying her first wang. Ten and a quarter inches long, swishy, made of willow. Nice wang for charm work." <JonJonB> "Your father, on the other hand, favored a mahogany wang. Eleven inches. " <JonJonB> Harry took the wang. He felt a sudden warmth in his fingers. He raised the wang above his head, brought it swishing down through the dusty air and a stream of red and gold sparks shot from the end like a firework, throwing dancing spots of light on to the walls <JonJonB> "Oh, move over," Hermione snarled. She grabbed Harry's wang, tapped the lock, and whispered, 'Alohomora!" <JonJonB> The troll couldn't feel Harry hanging there, but even a troll will notice if you stick a long bit of wood up its nose, and Harry's wang had still been in his hand when he'd jumped - it had gone straight up one of the troll's nostrils. <JonJonB> He bent down and pulled his wang out of the troll's nose. It was covered in what looked like lumpy gray glue. <JonJonB> He ran onto the field as you fell, waved his wang, and you sort of slowed down before you hit the ground. Then he whirled his wang at the dementors. Shot silver stuff at them. <JonJonB> Ok <JonJonB> I have found, definitive proof <JonJonB> that J.K Rowling is a dirty DIRTY woman, making a fool of us all <JonJonB> "Yes," Harry said, gripping his wang very tightly, and moving into the middle of the deserted classroom. He tried to keep his mind on flying, but something else kept intruding.... Any second now, he might hear his mother again... but he shouldn't think that, or he would hear her again, and he didn't want to... or did he? <melusine > O_______O <JonJonB> Something silver-white, something enormous, erupted from the end of his wang <JonJonJonB> Then, with a sigh, he raised his wang and prodded the silvery substance with its tip. <JonJonJonB> 'Get - off - me!' Harry gasped. For a few seconds they struggled, Harry pulling at his uncles sausage-like fingers with his left hand, his right maintaining a firm grip on his raised wang. Old probably. But for those of you who don't know it (y) I am sad and emo for my pc fails at getting reasonable FPS at Call of Duty 4. |
