Fractal Workflow
Create the Fractal
(The creative bit.)
If the fractal is derivative of another, copy the original from C:\Dev\Fractals\Trunk\Gallery to C:\Dev\Fractals\Trunk\Workbook. Add square brackets and a V1 on the end.
Otherwise, get a new code from C:\Dev\Fractals\Trunk\Fractal.ods.
| Computer | Aspect Ratio | UltraFractal Working Size | MandelBulb3d Working Size |
|---|---|---|---|
| Zeus | 85 | 1200 × 900 | 600 × 450 |
| Zeus | FA | 1750 × 700 |
Test Render
Save the fractal. Render to C:\Temp\Renders with Anti-Aliasing set to Normal and Open When Finished checked.
| Aspect Ratio | Test Render Size |
|---|---|
| 85 | 3000 × 2250 |
| FA | 4000 × 1600 |
Do a save as. Increment the Vx on the end. Continue being creative.
Finish Up
- Leave any fractals that didn't make the cut for reference.
- Rename final fractals.
- Delete any other versions of the final fractals.
- Copy to the appropriate
C:\Dev\Fractals\Trunk\Gallerydirectory. - Move to the appropriate
C:\Renders\Sourcedirectory.
Final Render
| Aspect Ratio | Final Render Size | Anti-Aliasing |
|---|---|---|
| 85 | 10240 × 7680 | Normal |
| FA | 12800 × 5120 | Normal |
| 8E | 10480 × 7336 | Normal |
- Open fractals from the appropriate
C:\Renders\Sourcedirectory. - Render to the appropriate
C:\Renders\Imagesdirectory. Use PNG.
Wait a while…
Copyrightisation
- Copy image files from
C:\Renders\ImagestoC:\New Gallery\*\Source. - Update the file
C:\Dev\Copyrightise\CopyrightImageDetails.pmwith the new images. - Run
C:\Dev\Copyrightise\v2Generate All Derivatives.bat - AdjustSettings: Use the sampler in
C:\New Gallery\*\Copyright Samplersto update the values in the fileC:\Dev\Copyrightise\CopyrightImageDetails.pm. - Delete the appropriate files from
C:\New Gallery\*\Copyrightised. Sort by modification date makes them easy to find. There should be 12 for 85 or 10 for FA. - Delete the file
C:\New Gallery\85 (Screen)\Copyright Samplers\Montage.pngor rename it to compare the difference. - Run
C:\Dev\Copyrightise\v2Generate All Derivatives.batagain. - Examine the Montage image. Ignore the 512×384 image. If the values need adjusting, go to AdjustSettings:
- If the image is 85:
- Copy
C:\New Gallery\85 (Screen)\Copyrightised\*.2800×1600.pngand*.1024×768.jpgto a USB Key to take to work. - At work on WHOS008, copy
*.2800×1600.pngtoC:\11000 x 7703 (Raw). - Run
C:\11000 x 7703 (Raw)\To Wallpaper.bat. This will convert to BMP and store inC:\11000 x 7703 (Raw)\Wallpaper. - On the laptop, copy
*.1024×768.jpgtoC:\Wallpaper.
- If the image is FA:
- Run the batch file
C:\Backgrounds\Refresh.bat.
To Wallpaper Script
This will need adjusting to work at home.
