RE: My first fractal!

in #art7 years ago

Make sure you have the correct version of Java installed. If your machine is only 32bit, then you need 32bit Java and 64bit if your pc is 64bit OS.
If it is 32bit, then you will not be able to render very big sizes. I'm not sure about how big you can render, but it is not very much. Maybe 640x480?
Much better to use a 64bit Java with a 64bit OS.

Sort:  

At first I didn't but I redownloaded the 64bit Java. Still takes ages :( hardware is decent too on my pc

Yeah, render times can be long, depending on what type of fractal you're trying to render.
What quality is your render setting set to?
Look at the settings next to the big render button on the top right side.
I usually render to 1000 quality on my screen renders and 2000+ on print jobs.
Take your "zoom level" down to near zero and your "ppi" up to above 300, I try to be above that, but if you are slowing down, then drop it to 300-ish. You can set those in the center of the bottom of the editor with the first tab at the bottom open.
What size are your renders? Bigger than 1920x1080?
How long are they taking approximately?

I don't recall exactly.
My house been out of power since yesterday. I'm currently at work so I can't really remember. Been busy with the Irma hurricane.

No problems Mark, more important stuff to consider with the effects of Irma!! Be safe!

Thank you Fractalizer!
Everything already passed. coworker of mine had a tree fall on her home so she wont be at work for a while :(
It sucks but there is nothing we can do when it comes to mother nature.

Yes, sad news when that happens!
We are getting 75mph winds and rain here, from Atlantic weather. We usually get the remnants of hurricane weather from east coast US here in UK.

Ooh you're fromt he UK?
Didnt even notice!
Damn I hope you're all safe!

Yes thanks, I am an American, just been livin here since getting out of the military in 1981. I used to live in Houston, not having much luck are they!
