Fractal Explorer

Fractal Explorer application - a fractal generator that will produce mysterious and beautiful mathematically-based images Fractal Explorer application represents a fractal generator that will produce mysterious and beautiful mathematically-based images.

Not just a tool for professionals, FE can provide hours of entertainment for beginners and experts alike !

Fractal Explorer can render the classical polinomial fractal sets (like the Mandelbrot-set, the Julia-set, the Newton-set and theirs variations), 4D-complex fractals (called quaternions ), 3D strange attractors, and IFS. Also, FE has many features for creation of special effects and improvement of the pictures.

Supported file formats:

  • FRS fractal spot in internal parametrical format
  • FRI IFS spot in internal parametrical format
  • FRO fractal orbita spot in internal parametrical format
  • FR3 3D attractors/IFS Spots in internal parametrical format
  • FR4 quaternion Spots in internal parametrical format
  • FRP palette file
  • FRA animation of fractal navigation project
  • FLP Fractal Landscape project
  • IFS FractInt IFS file
  • JPG for image saving
  • GIF for image saving
  • BMP for image saving
  • PNG for image saving
  • POV export fractal landscape scene (POV-Ray 3.1 project format)
  • INC export fractal landscape scene (POV-Ray 3.1 project format)
  • OBJ export terrain object to Wavefront OBJ format (to use with Bryce 3D)
  • TER export graymap to TerragenTerrain file
  • PGM export graymap to Portable Graymap file


    Note: Microsoft Video 1 format are recommended for AVI rendering (with other formats may be different problems). Also, we has no problems with DivX codecs;

    Here are some key features of "Fractal Explorer":
  • 148 implemented fractal-sets, from which Mandelbrot/Julie-variation polinoms and HopAlong-like fractal orbites;
  • the User Formula Compiler for advanced users allow to create your own fractals. With FEParser ( Kyle McCord) it is very simple now;
  • 3D attractors ( strange attractors)/IFS rendering;
  • 22 sets of the quaternions (4D-complex fractals);
  • the User Formula Compiler for quaternions;
  • Visual IFS Builder;
  • fractal landscapes rendering (throught OpenGL) with additional plug-in (Fractal Landscapes Library);
  • the special effects can be reached by 117 adjustable filters;
  • 12 coloring algorithms and gradient-like palette;
  • images smoothing, anti-aliasing and simple post-processing;
  • rendering animation (AVI) by different types of the fractal changing:
  • change of iteration's number;
  • change of scale and/or coordinates;
  • change of Julie or parameters values;
  • transformations of one IFS into another;
  • transformations and rotations of the 3D-attractors;
  • quaternion rotations;
  • you can save the best fractal images into Windows Bitmap, GIF or JPEG files;
  • also you can save your favorite fractals into very small files with internal parametrical format:
  • *.FRS - spots for polinomial fractals;
  • *.FRI - spots for 2D IFS;
  • *.FRO - spots for fractal orbites;
  • *.FR3 - spots for 3D-attractors/3D-IFS;
  • *.FR4 - spots for quaternions;
  • this format is very good for transferring via email or publishing in the WEB.
  • real multi-threading;
  • single, double and extended precision of calculations;
  • support command line and Drag&Drop for the all supported files (*.frp; *.frs; *.fri; *.fro; *.fr3, *.fr4 ets...);
  • internal File Browser, similar to the classical Windows Explorer;
  • Free Download ( 1.46 MB )
