NOw I have finally got hold of gold and seen the flow field unions (nice btw - tidy it would be easy to acheive 'messy' unions but this is not the case)
BUt I have a suggestion could you display when prwessing 'L' the both teh Flowfields obviosly there are 2 FF's at once and a union to join them but the info only dispalys one of the FF's the 'newest'.
Flowfield Unions in Gold
Moderators: BTT, andy55, b.dwall, juxtiphi
Also how do I force a change to the make unions come up liek I can do with waveforms, flowfields and colour maps.
It is really difficult for testing when making new ones.
ANyway I have only played with FF Unions for a few minutes but made this
enjoy. 
More later no doubt.

Code: Select all
//Rovastar - Madness Flower
A0="( 20 + flor(rnd( 40 )) )", //complexity
ALFA="sin((r)*A0*0.75)+cos((theta)*A0)"
Vers=250

More later no doubt.

You're Right...
There should be a reserved keystroke to toggle random Unions. I must admit it's a bit trying on the patience to wait for a Union to organically happen...unless one manually changes the Prefs file to increase Union probability.
Do tell if you have something(s) further to share with the rest of the class.

Actually I think this makes a better union. I keep teh range between 0 and 1 (rather than -1 and 1) so more blending.
Still working out how to get the best from these.

Actually, on the one hand, the first version is truer to the title of the effect.
On the other, version #2 seems to coalesce things *much* better, albeit at a sacrifice to creating your "flower" effect.
believe you me, these things *are* tricky; but getting it right is worth the agita.
