FMF V1.6 is now released to use freely. This is the first full functional version of FMF. If you have any suggestions on it, please let me know. Reply to this thread or send me an e-mail at spanzhang@gmail.com are both ok. To see images created by FMF or download it from a server in China, please visit http://www.cgpad.com. Following is a sample parameter for it.

Copy the above text (from <root ... to ) and paste it to FMF with menu of Edit->Paste, and you can see the image is generating in progress.

Here is another sample fractal.

You can explore it by magnify a block by select and double click in it.
Following is the coresponding scene script for the above ray tracing fractal.
It's writen in JScript grammar.
You need not paste it to the FMF.
Just switch to Property Editor's Color tab and click the toolbar's last button to view or edit it.
