New Features

  • Two new examples by Adam Majewski.

Bug Fixes

  • Example files are loaded properly now.

4.0

We acknowledge the kind help of Fractal Foundation in supporting our development.

What's new in 4.0

  • The user interface is based on Qt, so XaoS has a modern look and feel.
  • Works on macOS Catalina, which broke older versions.
  • Animation rendering has been fixed.
  • Menu entries are now standardized.
  • TrueType text rendering so fonts look nicer and non-Latin alphabets are supported.
  • Hindi, Icelandic, Russian, Serbian and Swedish translations.
  • Several minor updates for the other languages.
  • The language can be set in the View menu now.
  • Lots of bug fixes.
  • Zooming is possible also with the mouse wheel.
  • Mouse cursor has been changed to cross.
  • Iteration number N can be used in user formulas.
  • Lots of source code cleanup and refactoring. It may not be obvious to end users but this will allow us to make better features and more frequent releases in the future.
