flam4 is coming to a Linux near you.

Sun Nov 15, 2009, 8:05 PM

Mood: Tired
Listening to: Pink Floyd - Animals
Reading: The Gathering Storm
Watching: UFC 105
Playing: TexMaster
Drinking: a lot of coffee.

Most people know about the awesome work keldor has put into flam4 which uses CUDA to provide huge speedups in flame rendering. flam4 has been Windows only...until now...or rather very soon.

I've just finished porting the base flam4 renderer over to Linux and gotten commit privileges to flam4 svn. I'll start the work on putting my changes back into flam4 this week.

I start work at Timegate this week, so it won't happen as soon as I would like, but it will happen.

Soon fr0st, which already has the ability to use flam4 on windows, will provide rendering of fractals through the GPU through flam4 on my favorite OS.

Life is what we make it, and the world is what we make it. The eyes of the cheerful and of the melancholy man are fixed upon the same creation; but very different are the aspects which it bears to them.

Thanks for the watch

You appear to be a fractal pro, so I'll definitely have my eye on your work as well!
