This version introduces NetRender optimized for rendering animations using clients distributed over the network. It can use OpenCL for rendering. In addition it shares textures and sound files during network rendering. All rendered image frames are sent back to the server.
Version 2.20 new type of fractal formulas and transforms. New dIFS formulas can place geometric shapes into the fractal structure.

What is new:

  • Added new fractal formulas

    sierpinski3d, fixed DE

  • Fractals: added dIFS distance estimation mode

  • Fractals: Fixed issue #725. In some cases (only dummy iteration), colorIndex was uninitialized (noise on images)

  • Fractals: Fixed problem #737 (lack of coloring when slot#1 is disabled)

  • Fractals: Force analytic DE now works in non-hybrid mode

  • Fractals: Fixed problem #685. There was incomplete bailout condition for coloring mode.

  • NetRender: added network distributed rendering of animations (also with
    OpenCL). Server controls rendering animation and distributes rendering of
    animation frames to all connected clients. Finished image frames and sent back
    to the server.

  • NetRender: clients can pull textures and audio files from server

  • Shaders: Added color property for ambient occlusion effects

  • Shaders: Added fill light (0-order ambient occlusion)

  • Primitives: Added boolean operators for primitive objects

  • Primitives: Added parameter to control water progression speed in animation

  • Tools: Added Mandelbulber VFX Tools by Adrian Meyer

  • UI: Re-organized order in fractal list

  • UI: Colorized sections in comboBox with fractal list

  • UI: Added hotkey F11 to toggle full screen mode

  • UI: rendering of Julia set preview now is done by OpenCL

  • UI: Added Spanish language (translated by Jorge Abalo)

  • UI: Fixed bug #721. Deleted second material sometimes was really deleted and caused problems with Undo

  • UI: Fixed problem with Queue hanging program when deleting items from queue table

  • UI: add new generalized image file save with hotkey. This allows for all image
    file formats. The file format is derived from the given extension.

  • Examples: used $SHARED_DIR to substitute hardcoded texture paths

  • Examples: added many new examples

  • Files: Changed EXR compression from ZIP16 to ZIP1

  • Compilation: Changed to use OpenCL/cl2.hpp (cl.hpp is already depreciated) with OpenCL 1.2 compatibility macros

  • Compilation: Changed xcode version to 9.4.1 for MacOS builds

  • Compilation: Fixed many errors showed by CoverityScan
