Fractals & AutoIt => have Fun!

[JRowe]

Awesome. Beautiful. 5 Stars and well earned!

AndyG, I tried run on another computer and ... this works. It seems, on the old hardware it works more faster.

Anyways, 5* from me for a really nice example.

I bet your old hardware is not hyper-threading or dual core. That allows autoit to use 100% of processor. Hyperthread and dual core will restrict autoit to 50% cpu usage.

You're right, but on a new computer is not working properly, always crashes (QX9650). Edited March 9, 2010 by Yashied

Crash is caused probably because of the assembler part. That's not AndyG's fault. It's Ward's.

Just comment out generation of the code and use that from line 94 and I think it shouldn't crash any more.

However, this is a impressive example.

Nice too see you Ward.

I can't wait for AndyG's new version. I'm curious how would he deal with some glitches.

[JohnOne]

works fine with a PIII@1200Mhz^^

Works on my Athlon 2400+ underclocked (to stop it crashing) and running at 1.5Ghz.

Real cool too.

I can't wait for AndyG's new version

hmmmm^^.

There will be two versions, one with Wards (nice Job!) Assembler (2 times faster should be possible)  and one with a MASM-DLL written with a little help of SSE2/SSE3-Instructions (thx to AMD-Development Manuals) ...and this is awesome, because of the calculating of 4 pixels in one time. With the DLL it should be possible to run the script in x64-mode.

But today i was hit by a hammer, throwing by a guy who coded a flight through this Fractal with CUDA on a 80$-Graphicscard. The CUDA-Code is many times faster than the best optimized Code running on a CPU....but this is only if the algorithm is good to parallelize. 

Unfortunately i have a ATI-Graphicscard, so i cannot run the CUDA-Program

ciao, Andy

Impressive how fast "Mandelbrot_SSE_benchmark" is! Today I will test the CUDA version on my desktop on 8800GT card!

I am on Win-7 x64. Program fails to run each time.

When I try to open the .ZIP file it says it is damaged :/

[UEZ]

On my Win7 X64 neither zip file is damaged nor it is crashing when it is running, only when closing the window it will crash (!>12:45:22 AutoIT3.exe ended.rc:-1073741819, 0xC0000005). Seems to be a problem with AsmExit($AsmObj).

No matter what computer I use it always says it is damaged (re-downloading doesn't work either).

[hench]

just tried, great stuff from a great mind!!

download : OK

script: OK, crashed when exiting tho

thanks for sharing

btw, winxp sp3, autoit 3.3.6.1

Tschüss!

[AndyG]

Hi,

i am in the process to script something like a "Debugger" for the inlined and executed asm-code. Please do not expect too much, presentation comes soon. During the runtime of the asm-code it is possible to display the content of the 32Bit-registers eax, ebx...., all the important flags, FPU/MMX-Register ST0-ST7, Stack [esp....+20], 128Bit-Register XMM0-XMM7 and maybe some more.

In the Fractal-script I have always suspected an error in my asm-code relating to the stackpointer of the FPU, aka "not have cleaned the FPU-Stack entirely". Unfortunately my AMD-Processors and the old Intel PIII are insensitive of these kind of "unclean" software, at XP32 on AMD-K8-Athlons the script does not crash. Apologize.

But the Fractal-script is a good thing to test the "Debugger" and i am confident to find the reason of the crash(es).So stay tuned...

why can‘t run？ windows 8.1

Look on the first thread.. 2010.. and not been updated yet. You got your answer right there!

maybe not yet, i got the code on autoit.de, it's suitable for running.
