YES, is true It seems that Indigo Ray show many nice and beautiful filter results but then these are not available in the library, even after many months waiting to arrive.

Perhaps if you do not want to share them, it would be good that you put a note that this examples will not be available in the library.

Although I think that Indigo Ray have the intention and wish to publish them BUT it seems that this does not happen after many months waiting.

One example

Indigo Ray wrote also in August 2011 Just to tease you, I'll show you some new added features to the mud cracks filter. First, I changed the perspective a little to simulate an explosion towards the viewer (I have an implosion mode as well). Second, I've added a metallic rendering mode (you can still make the above pic if you like).

So from reading the answer I could think that it has the intention of making it available sometime soon in the FF library, BUT we are already in April 2012, and there is NO news after 8 months about this filter.

OK, I agree with this BUT as I have said above this have been 8 MONTHS AGO !!

I understand and know this very well, as I am the same perfectionist but I am letting go and now I Know that to release a filter it does not need to be perfect, just working right and organized and with presets to show what it can do.

OH, yes, I agree with you, it does not need to make it super mega perfect, because you can ALWAYS update it after and add more things or correct something, the only thing is that it should work and be efficient if possible.

Well, I don't know...you didn't say please...

Please, could you be so kind and nice to share this great filter you have done so well?

Thanks very much

More 3D with the smudge component: (the vertical black lines on the block are there on purpose)

Now add ome windows to the buildings

It's motion blur, from flying so fast between the skyscrapers

i like this last one, indigo. but, you're right, the depth blur is off a bit. it doesnt make a smooth transition all the way through... at least to my eye. still, i like this!

What happened to the great 3D and high green windowsless buildings ?

Well, I really do NOT want to have windows and so they could be similar to buildings, this was something Morgantao said , but what I really would like is to be add you own textures to the sides of the nice cubes or 3D vertical shapes, but if this is difficult and not possible, do not worry.

Morgantao, neither of those ideas work, unfortunately.
...it's a long shot, but what about UV mapping?

Also, I made this by accident, thanks to Uber. No, it's not 3d.

Morgan, you might like this one.

Indigo, are you going to release this filter, or are you just trying to make me beg?

And what about the mud cracks filter? People are going to riot on the streets

/me smacks himself on the forehead!
How could I forget mud cracks' release!?

But I actually ment this one:

Ooooh, I know, I know, me, me, ask me, I know!
Uberzev asked for a hand made F2 whorley noise, and Indigo stumbled upon this in his try to make the noise.

I imagine this was done by feeding that triangular pyramid shape into a bomber. The question is, how was the shape created... Perhaps by manually overlaying the 3 lines over a polygon?

Morgantao I suppose that do you mean this thread Anyone have a manual method for recreating F2 Worley Noise?, but I do not see how you could convert this Worley noise shapes into this poligonal 3D sharp shapes shown by Indigo Ray



This below is the Worley Noise from uberzev

Sorry that I have been posting in your thread, and was just to ask how you have done your beautiful design of the triangles shapes, but do not fear that I will not continue posting in your thread so you can have it clean just for you.

OK, do not bother, I was wondering why you said this, as we did not do something very wrong, I think, but I do not bother about it, I accept you apology and also will be more carefull when posting.

AND THE BEST OF ALL is that you have uploaded your 3D style "accident" filter and after using it I really must say that is AN AWESOME AND AMAZING ACCIDENT !!!!!

I like very much how you have done this and the way to use the polygons with the bomber and the edge detector and tint color.

I have done an updated version with more controls and more ways to customize your great and lovely filter and have discovered more things that can be done.

This is a pre-release as I think there is hidden a great potential and much more behind this filter

Here is what I have done until now

Tri updated controls.ffxml

Boom.

I can add custom shapes to the landscape, like this plateau. I can also "fly around" with controls for 3D movement and yaw (rotation- like turning your head around sideways). The lighting has been redone, I fixed? the depth map, and I added simple clouds.

BIG THANK Indigo !

If you make anything cool with that landscape filter, show me!

Here's something else, inspired by one of Uberzev's recent screenshots. It's like fractals, but with noise implemented somewhere. This is 5 iterations:

For some reason, changing the size of the image actually changes the pattern...I like it.
