About MB3D
MB3D (together with the Mandelbulb itself) was initially invented at the forum fractalforums.com, the software was written by the user Jesse. After Jesse retired, I finally took over the project, so now I’m the current maintainer of MB3D.
Improvements over the original version
I created about 8 releases so far and added the following improvements:
- ZBuf16Bit-module to create z-buffes/depth-maps in high quality
- BTracer2-module to create high-quality meshes from within MB3D
- BulbTracer-module to create meshes from within MB3D (which is the predecessor of BTracer2)
- Extended the BulbTracer-module to create point-clouds with high detail from within MB3D
- Integrated module to generate heightmaps from arbitrary meshes
- MutaGen-module to easily explore new combinations of formulas and settings
- integrated formula-editor for creating/editing JIT-compiled formulas
- Support for animated (height)maps
- Navigator-size may be adjusted
- Global rework of the UI, added theme-support
- official bug-reporting tool
