Ray_Tracing_1.pb -> Nice! Very smooth on my old PC, too.

Ray_Tracing_2.pb -> For a moment I thought this was meant to be animated, but looking at the code I don't see anything for that. So it's just to show the reflections? If so, it's nice as well, and amazing mathematics used. Way above my understanding.

Hi Mindphazer,

Thank you for saying so, I put a lot of time into the small details.

I was hoping most of the examples were cross-platform, but since losing my virtual drive two years ago, I've only had access to Windows.

NOTE: The way you feel about your MacBook Pro is the same way I feel about the Windows OS.

Hi BarryG,

Thank you for taking a real interest.

Definitely complicated. I'm able to use the algorithms when programming, changing some values to achieve various effects, but the math, forget about it. Check out the references, I believe they're references of references, and those references are references of references; say that ten times fast.

Hi All,

The included 8 examples are PART 1 of 4.
• Some of the examples in the 4-part download will be simple.
• It would be a mistake to ignore these if you're interested in this type of programming.
• Compare my version with the original, and you're on your way to converting some old Basic to PureBasic.

This group contains some of my favorite SpecBAS examples: Attraction.pb, Bubble_Universe.pb, etc.
• If there are any additional features they will be listed in the Title Bar.
• Some of the examples, where applicable, include the Maximize Window Button.

Hi JHPJHP,
These things are very cool and we know your code is always well-formed and -thought.

Speaking for myself I couldn't test your stuff yet, because I just started my new job. But I can't wait to see more and will try it when I have time.

Big thanks for sharing!

Very nice examples.
I really liked deep field, i remember playing around with it.

Hi jacdelad,

You're welcome, thank you for posting.

Hi Mijikai,

Thank you for your post, I'm fairly sure nothing here will be new to you.

For anyone else reading this post, you really need to check out Mijikai work.

Included in the SpecBAS folder (PART 1 of Old Skool Kool) is the Digital Rain example.
• Not to be confused with the basic Matrix Effect, previously discussed and located in the QB64 folder.
• One of many options that sets this example apart is #DYNAMIC_FADE: Fade Up, Fade in Place, Fade Down.

Waouw : a lot of good codes !

Playing with your examples is so much better than me sitting here on the radio:):)

Hi SPH,

Thank you, I'm about halfway there.

Hi Fangbeast,

I don't know, I think I'd be trying to crack the code on those Numbers Stations.
• I hope a couple of the new examples also provide some interest.

Hi All,

The included 8 examples are PART 2 of 4.
• Some of the examples in the 4-part download will be simple.
• It would be a mistake to ignore these if you're interested in this type of programming.
• Compare my version with the original, and you're on your way to converting some old Basic to PureBasic.

This group contains a few more of my SpecBAS favorites: Evolution.pb, Flux.pb, etc.
• If there are any additional features they will be listed in the Title Bar.
• Some of the examples, where applicable, include the Maximize Window Button.

While the following image demonstrates a fairly simple effect, the way it's processed is interesting.
• The lines are static, but the color palette is shifted.

I feel like this is getting somewhere now.

Hi idle,

Thank you for commenting.

If anyone wants to check out another really cool graphics effect, see the following: Osmosis
• Original: PurePunch Contest July-August 2014

I don't know, I guess it depends on your perspective; from where I'm sitting:
• After a week, when the number of forum members (12) posting positive comments is less than half the number of examples (26).

I don't get it; this latest batch includes 2 Perlin Noise algorithms and an Old Skool HSV to RGB algorithm, so Where Is The Love?

I'm sure everyone is appreciative of your efforts, I intend to spend some time looking over them in the weekend.

Definitely appreciative!

Finally I got to run the new examples, they are amazing!
Now I just need a lot of time to understand the magic of the code.

Thank you.
Norm

Hi JHPJHP,

I don't get much time these days to do any coding in Pure basic but do still regularly read the posts on this forum.

I've always found your examples and codes to be very helpful and I've learnt quite a bit from them. You're windows service code was a life saver a few years back in a project I was working on.

Please keep on posting these amazing examples of what can be achieved using PB. I just hope I can get some time to actually try them out myself.

Hi JHPJHP,

Love your work,
as always, very good and nice work.
Everytime you post, I can learn a lot of your work.

I don't know the graphics will work on my old/small computer ?
Will test it ...


Thanks,
Marc
