Hey Tatasz
I tried making this into a linear tile: sta.sh/01f0gnt9ek3l
but I ended up with this: sta.sh/02e6s8k6j6g1 and have no idea why.Β I didnt get the same shape and ended up with triangles instead :/
Here is the xml: 011ksh44bl8a
If you don't mind can you check it out? Sorry haha Β

ahhh no worries
Looks like you got the scale wrong here...Β it should be 0.3333333333 and not 0.5
This makes the pentagons overlap and look like triangles.
Maybe there is some positioning wrong too, but once you fix the scale it should be easier to check.

Yay after changing it to 0.33333 it worked! 
sta.sh/0252aqtjougk
How do you know the scale?
I think this is why some of my attempts haven't been well. I got the positions and angle down I think. I think I just don't understand scaling.
Is it due to the area taken by one tile? If so why not 1/9 instead of 1/3?
EDIT: Never mind I just found out how xD (square root of the of [small tile area/whole tile area] :3)

Mind if i incorperate part this into a workshop on basic fractaling i'm working on? Β

So I finally got the ones up I've done so far

The 2nd one is a bit loud, but I really like the 3rd... But I must have over 100 that I've saved and haven't rendered. There's NO end to what you can come up with. Thanks for the tut!!

Zoooomg, grab and run (as I already did )
Thanks Tatyana for this cool explanation - works really well and you can make tons of patterns

Thanks for this tutorial, it reminds us on the simple things and can be endless fun

Thats sadly true. And so many forget that they not only able to create awesome stuff, they are also very fast, allowing cool motions in almost realtime.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yup... Almost instant render compared to some other stuff

Great instructions! Simple, yet very diverse. As someone else pointed out, I love how these are general guidelines and not steps to replicate a fractal type. I started working on some fractals already.

oh, really nice
Im eager to see the results... if you get any questions, please ask

So far, I've rendered two. [link] / [link]
I do have one question. When you did the second example, the half-hexagon, what criteria did you use to determine how many shapes/transforms were going to be included? For example, how come you divided the half-hexagon into four trapezoids and not three triangles?
Anyhow, I did something similar for another image that I still haven't rendered, except it was a half-octagon. I tried making the shape with the triangles' sides on the editor but the flames overlapped, so I figured out that the triangles must be space different and not even touching each other.
Thank you for your help. (=

Well, this tutorial is about tilings composed of scaled down copies of themselves, so pretty much a square is tiled with squares, a triangle is tiled with triangles and a half hex is tiled with half hexes.
Of course you can try making up shapes by yourself, but seems like its way easier to use already existant shapes.
For a half octagon, you would need to tile up a half octagon with smaller half octagons without empty spaces and overlaps (which may not be possible... or may be
To tile something with different shapes, you would need to use some quite nasty xaos, quite beyond the scope of this tutorial.

Ooooooh! I see. Wow, it all seems so obvious now. I'll get working on that half octagon right away.
Thank you very, very much! (=

welcome
well dunno, to start with, i would make some already tiled up stuff, like sierpinski triangle and things like that.

I might just fire up apophysis again to try this out

This marvelous tutorial is featured in my last This week in my MC#11
Take care

At last - a tutorial that explains stuff and doesn't just show how to recreate something. Excellent, many thanks! More please!

This is the best tutorial I've seen for Apophysis. It explains in depth on the mathmatical process concerning how to make fractals. While many make tutorials giving you only params and a simple explanation on what these params do, this tutorial actually tells you exactly the math that is involved on how fractals work in Apophysis.
Thank you very much!
π: 0 β©: 1
aww thanks... though this math is more related to how the tile works, but somehow it made clearer to me how fractals work overall.

ROFL! Oh, so after that lengthy Apochat session NOW you put this out! I'm honored.
