Hello! I just upgraded to Ultrafractal 5 and would like to play with some Lyapunov images.
I found three non-hybrid Lyapunov formulas in the public library, but they all give me a black rectangle.
Any tips on which parameters to tweak, or which coloring methods to use?
We could focus on "dmj-Markus-Lyapunov" for reference.
Thanks!
Kevin

Kevin, I sure am no expert on UF, but found that when I loaded dmj-Markus-Luapunov and played with the outside parameters I just got the black rectangle. However when I placed a color formula on the inside I began to get coloring. Ready to play ibn earnest now.

Thanks, Linda! That pointed me in the right direction.
The inside coloring methods that work for a 3d look are Generic Coloring (Gradient) and Exponential Smoothing, with transfer function set to Linear.
After I had something on the screen it was easy to find which seed values etc. to tweak.
Happily playing now!
