Hello!
This is a demo version of MapTrix, a new program developed by The Art
Machine. What is MapTrix? Well, it's a fractal generator unlike any
other, offering a variety of fractal effects, in addition to some
image processing tools, all aimed at helping you create textures and
backdrop images for video, 3D rendering or any other graphic work.
This program REQUIRES 2.04, so don't even attempt to run it on a
1.2/1.3 machine. (Although the lucky 3.0 owners should have no
problem).
MapTrix is a program with a lot of room for exploration. Many of the
functions available have multiple "styles", each yeilding different
effects. Additionally, you can experiment with some of the image
processing functions to smooth out, emboss, or convolve any
interesting images you create. (And the handy UNDO function makes
experimeting with image processing a possibility, finally!)
This is just a demo, so don't expect to generate full size images.
Although, there is no reason you can't use the program as-is to
create interesting, (and some seamless), repeating brush maps.
I'd especially like to hear feedback from Vertex users regarding the
uses of MapTrix. If you have any comments, criticisms or opinions,
pass 'em my way.
Enjoy!
