Fractal texture parameters

Amplitude: A scaling factor applied to all values in the texture about the texture’s average value. The valid range is 0 to infinity. The slider range is 0 to 1. The default value is 1.
Threshold: An offset factor applied to all values in the texture. The valid range is 0 to infinity. The slider range is 0 to 1. The default value is 0.
Ratio: Controls the frequency of the fractal pattern. The valid/slider range is 0 (low frequency) to 1 (high frequency). The default value is 0.707.
Level_min, Level_max: The minimum and maximum number of iterations used to calculate the fractal pattern. These parameters control how fine grained the fractal pattern is. The valid range is 0 to 100. The slider range is 0 to 25. The default value is 0 for Level_min and 9 for Level_max.

TipIf both Level_min and Level_max are high (close to 100) rendering will take a long time. If you want to make the fractal pattern more finely grained, lower the Blurmult or Amult value instead.
Animated: Allows you to animate the fractal pattern by setting Animated ON and animating the Time value. The Fractal texture will take longer to calculate when Animated is ON. The default setting is OFF.

TipUse an animated Fractal texture to create billowing cloud or flame effects.
Time: Allows you to animate the fractal pattern by setting Animated ON and animating the Time value. If Animated is OFF, the Time value has no effect. The slider range is 0 to 1. The default setting is 0.
