| Reptile System
Requirements
|
a 32-bit that lets you create great-looking tiling textures for use as wallpaper or Web page backgrounds. It uses mathematics to initially generate a texture. Once the texture is created, the program quickly grows a new image from the original texture. The textures are created in a series (similar to the way fractals are grown), with each image affecting how the next texture will appear. As Reptile continues to produce the graphics, you'll observe the textures changing and evolving into a myriad of different forms and colors. When you see a texture you like, press the Esc key to halt the growing process. Or, you can take "pot luck" and see what appears when the growth spurt finishes. You can also record textures as you grow them, which lets you fine-tune the texture-creation process. Reptile can generate textures at any resolution you need and preview what they'll look like on a Web page. The images can be saved as .gif or .jpg files or be sent to the desktop as wallpaper. Note: Even It's free, you must get a registration code to use it. |

| POV-Ray Version: 3.01 |
Tracing tool for creating photo-realistic images. The first stage of ray tracing is to "describe" what it is that you want to depict in your picture. You may do this using an interactive modelling system, like a CAD package, or by creating a text file that has a programming language-like syntax to describe the elements. You specify what objects are in your imaginary world, what shape they are, where they are, what color and texture they have and where the light sources are to illuminate them. | download |
