Visions of Chaos includes many sample GA files, which are typically saved in the C:/Users/UserName/AppData/Roaming/Visions of Chaos/Examples directory.
Meer informatie
Fractals are complex geometric patterns that are self-similar across different scales. They are created by repeating a simple process forever in an ongoing loop. Visions of Chaos is a free fractal art generator that allows users to create and share fractal-based art.
Visions of Chaos includes many unique fractal generation tools, referred to as modes. One of Visions of Chaos's modes is named Genetics, a sub-mode of which is Genetic Art. The Genetic Art tool uses GA files as the parameters from which it generates fractals. GA files are simple text-based files that include a reference to a genetic art rule, image options, and gene character offsets.
How do I create my own GA file?
Users can create their own copies of Visions of Chaos's GA files by clicking the button that appears in the Genetic Art 1 Settings window. By default, Visions of Chaos saves these files to the Documents/Visions of Chaos/Data directory.
OPMERKING: Additional genetic art image parameters are saved with the .ga2 and .ga3 extensions. GA2 and GA3 files are used with Visions of Chaos's Genetic Art 2 and Genetic Art 3 modes, respectively.
