Yep still pretty there craig..

Playing with the percentile component I see updates for some painty effects that use offsets..

Heres the filter with other things connected via switch..Check pre-set6 its a windy paint effect...

Very interesting Uber. I'd have never thought that the hue values are preserved with tint amount 0. For some reason only HLS and HSB extraction can access that info, the rest sees no hue at all. I wonder if that's a bug or a feature.

But otherwise it's a very clean and elegant solution. /me tips hat

Its not zero, just very low. Cool solution!

No, this is the hairy version Basically same filter with some pre bomber particle distortion and some chaos added in the bomber

+1mil on that one Craig...

Nice, blood seems like a fun idea, here's a smaller scale jelly like blood splat.

Sphinx's looks like wet fur, very cool!

Excellent work everyone. Here's a forest floor.



That's something strange out here in the woods. Is it a trap or a secret entrance?

Here's a RIDICULOUSLY simple filter that does some crazy background patterns. It uses percentile

I dare somebody to try and actually attempt "Jackson Pollock" style.

Either way... just for some decoration....

It means "Big Octaves on Top", not "Big Particles on Top". Only the octave scale is used for sorting, the particle size is not considered.

*Cough* *Cough* Sjeiti has a hairball.

sure...

Sweet! Feel like sharing the source code? I may have an idea for a spin-off.

Here it is. I remade it because my original was called Blood01 and I was searching blood so it never showed up (of course I found it after I remade it). Oh well I think I remade it a little better.

I believe he is talking about detail. Imagine higher octaves being smaller and smaller details. Imagining it with fractals is easier, the next octave being the repeat of the pattern, on and on. So in Bombers, Size Chaos will not automatically make smaller particles be on top/bottom because they are part of the same Octave. When you add Details you get ever smaller particles, there are several octaves of detail added based on the amount you are using (maybe every 10% or so?). Anyway, the smaller particles that result from Detail are the ones that will sort. This may not be 100% correct.
