thankx so much, i really love how that Mandel 4d BIC formula with 0,0,0,0 julia values gives such a nice cylinder.

thankx. the classic abox folding, but with the mandel4Dbic (in 0/0/0/0 julia setting [for cylenders]), and i think a bit of 'fldintpwr' for the turbine-y attachment points. i had to rotate and translate the bic formula to get it right though.

I don't know but it making me mad. I can't get there either
and several of my friends on here have told me the same thing.
I emailed them about it but so far nothing. Its been 3 days now.

do you have a free account? i know that pay accounts have priority at the help desk. if it's some internal error perhaps they are still trying to respond to any pay accounts that are experiencing the same issue. you're the only one i've seen with this issue though, so i'm not sure how wide spread the problem is. technology......sigh.

well, you could always do what i do when I get a really long render, start it before going to bed... who knows, sometimes they don't take as long as the counter first shows, so maybe it would be done by morning...

tobaal In reply to fraterchaos [2011-12-30 09:05:26 +0000 UTC]

i'm afraid to render for that long right now. i've only pushed this computer to just over an hour. i think that's why my last hdd blew out. bad fan, and too much heat for too long. be careful. i'm passively looking for a way to limit the cpu usage on certain programs. it seems that m3d pushes 99% cpu use on every machine. idk.

fraterchaos In reply to tobaal [2011-12-30 18:41:13 +0000 UTC]

well, I'm not sure if it would help... you can go into the task manager and set it to low priority, but the few times I tried that it didn't really seem to change the cycles MB3D used... on my machine I always have to set my browser to realtime priority if I'm rendering, or I can't do anything online while the render runs...

Not sure if there would be any other way to cut the amount of cycles MB3D uses... Incendia has a setting for that, but I never found one in Mandelbulb

tobaal In reply to fraterchaos [2011-12-31 01:15:09 +0000 UTC]

i didn't know about realtime priority, i'll have to check that out. i wonder if there is some sort of pseudo-proxy intermediary that could control a certain program's access to the cpu. hmmmmm. if incendia has a cycles used option, i can send jesse a message through fractalforums.com and see if he might be able to integrate that.

fraterchaos In reply to tobaal [2011-12-31 01:49:18 +0000 UTC]

it would be nice to be able to set it higher or lower... as for priority on the task manager, simply right click any process you want to change and choose set priority... there is one warning I'd give, if you set realtime on some process that is already using a lot of CPU cycles, it can be impossible to even change it back, as it will use so much of your processor's power that it effectively freezes the mouse until the process finishes, so use realtime with caution
