Regor : F-Render, a Fractal Renderer

F-Render

©Roger B. J. Baron 1991-1996

F-Render stands for Fractal Renderer.
This home-made software is dedicated to the rendering of simple surfaces made of thousands of contiguous facets, which is the most simple way to approximate most 3-D fractals, such as mountains or Mandelbrot sets.

F-Render is running under Unix systems but could be ported easily. F-Render takes simple scene description files as input. These files are human-readable, but primitive; so you'll have to wait a little before I write a graphical interface and distribute a final version.
At the moment, I am enhancing some computing algorithms, but I have to do this out of my working hours...

Here are some examples of what can produce F-Render
