Wonderful desktop images!  Do you have a 1680x1050 version of the second one?

Having read all posts in the forums over the last couple of months, I decided that it was time to register in the forums.

I just looked at image #2 while listening track #15 (Solar Sailer) from the Tron: Legacy soundtrack on Spotify. Damn it felt like I was sitting atop the summit looking out over the fabulous landscape after a long hike up the mountain.

cameni and angrypig; keep up the excellent work!

"Now gracing cshawnsmith's desktop wallpaper."

I can't stop looking at these two images.  They're very powerful, not only for the engine itself, but also the beauty of the shots themselves.

Out of the number of fractal world engines I've looked at in the last year, these two shots have sealed the deal for me.  I no longer care if I can do what I want to do with the engine.  I just want to stand on the shore of some island get-a-way and watch the sunset!  Don't care if it's a silent world.  Don't care if all the trees are Pines.  Don't care if Lake Lewisville is a dried up lake-bed, with no water.  I've been staring at my desktop for the last half-hour, just in awe.

Guy's, you've out-done yourselves.

Thumbs up!

Now looking at an AWSOME atmospheric sunset...... "I want to Fly-Drive-Run-Hunt-Fish-Climb-Build-Fight-Die(virtually of course) & BE IN THAT LANDSCAPE....... Damnn    I can imagine an "Age of Empires" type scenario where the landscape is un effected by human presence and the whole world is there for the advancement of a new model human civilisation.... just establishing the first community, city, road network, trade routes and so on.

Or... maybe an already advanced high tech human community arriving from space onto a new earth to begin again in... a virgin garden of eden....

I feel really sad for all of you. Because as much as you think you love these shots looking at them on your computers, I (with no ego) can safely say am the only person (probably on earth) to have seen them on a fully calibrated GDM-FW900.. and I can only describe the warmth and color and detail of these shots with my very limited vocabulary of F*** and S***..

I did discover that if you open the second image with GIMP and perform a simple Colours --> Auto --> White Balance

It returns a rather nice result...

Yup, that's something we need to add to the final processing, color mapping to reflect how human eye perceives white in different lighting conditions, especially in evenings.

And transitioning to B&W perception with low levels of light during nights.
