New Flam3 released!
I checked the Apophysis mail and just found out there's a new version of flam3 out, get it here, click the underlined ZIP for the binary .exe files: flam3.com/index.cgi?&menu=down…
so if you use Flam3 for rendering you should get the update.

Wow, I just checked my gallery stats (hardly ever do that) and noticed I have 50 Friends and 56 watchers, 50 by old standards was equivalent to a small army, amazing!
(Up to 67 friends,60 watchers,I watch 87 people, and 468 's WOW!)
Not sure how many friends I added myself personally (couldn't have been that many because I didn't know how until very recently)
A big Hug and Thank You to you all!

If you have any questions/problems with apophysis feel free to note me as I have probably already had the problem before and found the info on how to fix it.

Info tip from :
Quote: "I have discovered something cool....
Joel Faber's Image Apo 2.04, doesn't allow for moving post transforms or additional plugins, But if you move the posts around in 2.07, as Ngons with a power of 1, then open the result in JF's 2.04, the posts will still be moved, and you can change them to the image variation."

Thanks for the the info m8!

NEW* Plugin Variations - Polynomial by Cothe:
cothe.deviantart.com/art/Polyn…
Heavily commented with previews as well, Nice work Cothe!
*He also has made a Complex Polynomial variation, they both give occasional errors but they're still cool plugins

===========================================
Apophysis Plugins:

Apo Plugins
sourceforge.net/project/showfi…

Lu-Kout's Plugins
lu-kout.deviantart.com/art/Apo…

"Z" Plugins from the beta2z+c+ version for Normal apo
cothe.deviantart.com/art/Apoph…

*You  will need to create a folder called PLUGINS to use these plugins if you don't have that folder yet, then once downloaded copy them into the plugins folder.
Please note that there's a limit at 30 plugins and the total of these is more than that.  What I did was to create a folder called PLUGINSBAK and only use the plugins I plan to use or what plugins  a script I plan to use calls for in the PLUGINS folder ann move them back and forth as needed.  If you have already loaded apo and you want to use a plugin variation that you don't have in the plugin folder you will have to close apo, copy the plugin to the plugin folder, then restart apo.

Also note that some plugins don't "play well" with others, like Epispiral and Lazysusan for example, most of the time (but not everytime) they will cause an error which will cause you to force close Apo or reboot if you can't force close the program.

===========================================
Free Paint Programs for Post Working
===========================================

ArtWeaver, Free Graphic program with multi-layer support:
artweaver.en.softonic.com/down…

The Gimp, free paint program, can also make animated gifs
Gimp.org

PhotoFiltre, Free Graphic/paint program, no transparent layer support but it has some cool filters and is VERY easy to use.
I highly recommend it for people new to using paint programs:
photofiltre.en.softonic.com/do…

You might have downloaded the source files (programmers stuff) and not the binaries, here's the link for the binaries: [link]

FracFx In reply to AndreiPavel [2008-01-28 15:37:50 +0000 UTC]

In Apophysis go to Options,options,Paths and check your "Export Renderer" (the bottom box), if it's set to flam3.exe and not HQI.exe you need to get the update as it fixes a few bugs the old version had.
