Wow ! Great stuff can be create with this method. Thanks for the link uber  Can you create a filter to reproduce the first example ?Ghislaine |

Cool and interesting website
Would be possible to make the impossible in FF ? 
At least the second figure that you have shown here and that I like much |

OH ho ho ho pretty sure this is doable. | |||

I'm pretty sure both can be done in FF. The second one is much simpler, but the first is doable. | |||

If this is doable, let´s see who can make it better
Skybase VS Morgantao
Who will make it ? Let´s wait and see... FF Duel |

Well, while this is true, is NOT the first time that this have happened Skybase VS Morgantao In my personal opinion and for my taste I like more your than the one from Skybase, and is not at all that the Skybase version is bad at all, just different and is not that I do not like the Skybase one, as it is also good and well done |

Using my patented Smudge Method ®  , I can easily add varying thickness to the squares. However, the lighting is an issue; I completely faked it here. "Time flies like an arrow; Fruit flies like a banana." -Groucho Marx |

That would have been what I would have done D: unless we had iterators yes iterators.
I donno, You can probably use derivatives to get some info and maybe get normals. I still like the outcome of it |

Nice attempt Indigo. The smudge method is clever but looks shoddy. Not that I have a better idea. |

Very well done Indigo Ray, this looks very good and nice, would be really great if you could put an image mapped over the upper part broken in tiny cubes |

Thanks for the kind words, SR, but I suspect that this one is a bit beyond my abilities |

Yep, SR, here's an example. I can also have the image fill one color per tile. "Time flies like an arrow; Fruit flies like a banana." -Groucho Marx |

Looks beautiful, Very well done Indigo Ray, it looks very well, and I suposse you can change the height of the colummns and make them variable or even better, could the colummns be heightened by a mask, I mean that you could rise more the colummns with white or black and lower more the columns in white or black of the mask. | |||

I did it with bombers as well. Had helluva time figuring out how to make the bomber omit the particles outside the square, but finally figured a way to do it. |

Very well done uberzev and like much your happy accident
THREEDEE, WHAT YOU HAVE DONE IS INCREDIBLE AND AMAZING !!! 
Excellent done and like much the animation too The animation remembers me of the Rafflesia flower (biggest flower in the world)  |

ThreeDee, I assume your rotating by 45deg and then squishing your bomber output. | |||

ThreeDee

Indeed -- that seemed like a logical way to do it. I also have the density set at 4 so I could make even taller particles, each 1/4 of maximum particle width. The bottoms of the front rows are simply stretched (fr om the vertical midpoint) with the lookup component afterwards, they are not really that tall. Now, for a real challenge, can you figure out how the overall shape is lim ited to an exact square? |

It would be significantly easier if the bomber chance setting would not be affected by the offset location... | |||

uberzev

I'd like an option for the bomber that calculates depth/color/chance/etc from the initial location without factoring in the offset. That seems like a logical solution to your issue.
On another note I'm working on a non-bomber version of the effect. This will allow a properly tiled version. It's a pain in the butt though.  |
|||
| Posted: July 24, 2012 7:57 am | ||||

ThreeDee
|
Wouldn't it be easier to rotate and scale the original image input before feeding it into the bomber to get a properly tiled effect? | |||

All I have to say is...  |

It's not the original image I'm worried about. The columns will never fit nicely at the edges to tile properly. |
|||
| Posted: July 24, 2012 6:32 pm | ||||

uberzev

So I I've gotten tiling to work with 'Size, pixels' maxed out...
But when you reduce the size you get some weirdness... 
Any ideas ThreeDee? (or others who might understand what I'm doing) Cuberism Grid (1).ffxml |

Seems like maxing out Chaos slider breaks it too...
Anything above 90 seems like a bust.  |

Hi Uber,
I see what you mean by bomber messing up the seamlessness, having tried it out. So how 'bout this "quick fix"? I cut the two pieces in half and pushed the bottom parts of both in the back. Cuberism Grid Fix.ffxml |

Great work ThreeDee. You nailed it.  
Now to figure out an efficient way to add color and offset controls like those available in bomber... but it will probably end up way too convoluted. |

I put together a bomber-based Cuberizer, which is slightly different from these in it's default state, in that it steps up at each row, like this: |
|||

|
ThreeDee

When offset, it looks like this.
Basically this is made of two bomber sets interleaved every other row, with the second bomber offset so it falls in the right place. It tiles properly, but due to using bomber the coloring is still based on the offset location, not the original location of the cubes.  |

Size, pixels tiles the image.
The filter is somewhat slow as I made it a surface filter. On the other hand, this allows lighting changes.  |

On the other hand, Repeat amount makes more cubes without shrinking image. |
