Render Flam3 1.3.7
4th November 2008
I’ve got finally some spare time, during the last days, to put my hands back on the Script again.
This version adds more support to the latest Flam3 versions.
New motion blur features: temporal_filter_type, temporal_filter_width and temporal_filter_exp
plus
interpolation types: old and older (linear and log already supported)
The padding XForms addition (”Flam3 Advanced Parameters”) is selectable by user.
A rare bug regarding FinalXform handling was corrected.
The code is better optimized and the whole script is more compact than the previous version.
The Flam3 installation scheme is now version-independent for every 2.7.xx version both in “sub” and “plain” folder setups.

RenderFlam3 main purpose is rendering a sequence of Flames using Flam3 to create animations.
It’s an Apophysis script which cycles through the flames in the Title Window,
sets their time field,
sets their advanced animation tags,
saves them all off to a single flame file,
and then creates a bat file (to the same output path).
Executing the bat file will launch flam3-animate and render the animation’s frames; Flam3 will interpolate all the flames.
RenderFlam3 can create Morph, Sheep or Edge animations.
