Code: Select all

//Rovastar - Unholy Ritual

A0="6 + flor( 64 * rnd( 1 ) )",

Aspc=1,

srcT="theta - 0.005 * cos( r * a0 )/sin( theta* a0 )",
srcR="r - 0.005 * cos( theta * a0 )/sin( r * a0 )",

LEt me know what you think.

And simply chnaging teh variable froma Polar to Cart get this nice mod.

Code: Select all

//Rovastar - Unholy Ritual (Temple Mix)

A0="6 + flor( 64 * rnd( 1 ) )",

Aspc=1,

srcX="x - 0.005 * cos( y * a0 )/sin( x* a0 )",
srcY="y - 0.005 * cos( x * a0 )/sin( y * a0 )",

And from swapping around between the polar and cart inside oneanother gets the following.

Code: Select all

//Rovastar - Unholy Ritual (Boxed Belief Mix) 

A0="6 + flor( 64 * rnd( 1 ) )", 

Aspc=1,

All are elegant to an absolute tee.

Your last two, however, seem to yield the same results. In your MultiMix, making A2 a reiteration of A1 doesn't make sense if your aim is further variation than the original.

Also, I would heartily advise you to interpolate rnd() and flor() in your vars. Since variety is key, the larger integer receives treatment generated by the the former func (I would venture, by inference, that flor() acts as somewhat of a hedge against overkill).

Thank you very much, Mr. Rovastar, Sir!

And I ain't being sarcastic. If these are anywhere as good as your last batch, that's just the only thing I can say. Although I haven't specifically checked them out yet, they are already honored entries in the Rovastar Memorial FlowField sudirectory.

Take care.

Yeah the last 2 don't change too much but there are 'different' as the multi mix is placing a different value in there. I am sure I have explained before why aI use teh same equation for A1 and A2 for example. It is not exactly the same as the other one.

BUt I was actually a little rushed and could decide on which one I like best.

The FLor/ rnd thing was by design although I now realise it was not needed. I was playing with a specific shape for a map/flowfeild for a potential client. And that had to be a integer value with 18 sides. (With the top petal of the 'flower' always pointing directly upwards (and a fraction of an integer moves the upwards most point right) )

I then played with the equations a bit and made what I did and expanded the range of A0 for 18 to interger values only for a bigger range. Now I realise that you do not need integer values at all. Thanks Jay.

SO We change change the above from

A0="6 + flor( 64 * rnd( 1 ) )",

,etc

to simply

A0="6 + rnd( 64 )",

Thus getting more variety.

I'll tweak these more and zip up a collection sometime and give to Andy also. NOt happy 100% with them all yet.

Although Andy never seems to comment on the config threads.......

Try this ones for size

Code: Select all

//Rovastar - Unholy Ritual (Deeper Evil Mix)

A0="16 + flor(rnd(32))", 

Aspc=1, 

srcT="theta - 0.035 * ((cos( (r)*a0 )+1)^(sin( (theta)* a0 )+1))",

Come step it up JayPro and other lets see some configs.

Code: Select all

//Rovastar - Unholy Ritual (Rancid Taste Mix)

A0="32 + flor(rnd(32))", //amount of swirl-like things 
A1="sgn(rnd(2)-1)", //direction of them on the x parameter
A2="sgn(rnd(2)-1)", //direction of them on the y parameter

Aspc=1, 

srcX="x + A1* 0.0035 * ((cos( (y)*a0 )+2)^(sin( (x)* a0 )+2))", 
srcY="y - A2* 0.0035 * ((cos( (x) * a0 )+2)^(sin( (y)*a0 )+2))",

Excellent pieces.

I don't think you need to imporve on them at all.

I'll try to post some ideas using the newer functions once I get an idea.
