halcy.de v4 » Version four-point-oh and counting.Two weeks!

So I got a 3DS, and after noticing that it uses an open format (“mpo”) for storing 3D photographs, I needed to play with that, of course.

As a result, I now have a version of my simple raytracer that can render a left and right image, which can then be combined into one stereoscopic 3D image for viewing on the 3DS with software such as this (It runs under wine).

I’ve rendered two small scenes, a 4D julia set and a trefoil knot of spheres! They look kind of neat, so if you have a 3DS, put them on your SD card in the picture folder and have a look!

(If you don’t have a 3DS, you can still look at them as if they were normal jpeg images, because they really are jpegs with some added exif data)

• Image 1 - Julia Set
• Image 2 - Trefoil knot
• Raytracer
• Program for converting left/right images into mpo files
• Bonus: WAHa_06x36 took pictures of his bismuth crystal, which I cropped and converted! They look neat, also!

P.S.: My friend code is 0473-7758-5435~ feel free to add me~

Four new entries and live videos have been added to the “releases” page, amongst them my favourite SVatG release thus far, “It’s 1975 and this man is about to show you the future”!
