Crocus 4 (Indra's Dreams)

Crocus 4 uses the OpenGL library to set up a simple 3D scene using data files from Swirlique, Fractal Lab, lsystems, built-in primitives and Wavefront objects as the main foreground objects.

Features of Crocus 4:

Getting Started Tutorial
Import Swirlique data files [DFS] and convert them to 3D objects using the built-in primitives (spheres and cylinders, etc) or Wavefront objects
Import Fractal Lab data files [FRL] and convert them to 3D objects using the built-in primitives (spheres and cylinders, etc) or Wavefront objects
Import objects [OBJ] or lsystem [LS] files from other programs such as QuaSZ, Quetzal and Fractal Zplot.
Stereolithography [STL] output for 3D printers
Export Kleinian sets, lsystems and fractals to other programs in [OBJ], POV] and [DXF] formats
Mesh simplification and POV smoothing for smaller export files
You can use the figure Pilot to rotate and move objects around, and the integrated video routines will track each movement to create an AVI video file.
Additions to the OpenGL library include routines for including reflections and planar shadows in the scene, for enhanced realism.
Choice of built-in textures or bitmap [BMP] texturing
Context help for menu commands and dialog windows
