Understanding iflames

Today am going to take a look at iflames these things have been around in JWildfire for quite a while. Let’s see here, I did this one when it first came out in 2014, so iflames have been out for quite a while but I don’t think a lot of people understand them or know what a flame is. Plus it is a little taxing on the computer it does there it does use a lot of memory and resources on your computer so maybe that’s another reason why people don’t use them very often. But today I’m trying to help explain what in our three minutes and how to use them. So basically what a flame is, is hundreds if not millions of little fractals applied to an image so every single one of these little dots here if you were to zoom in is actually a fractal. Find another good example here like every little tiny dot here if you were to do in on it is actually a fractal and you can adjust ,there are many many ways to adjust how they are visible here you can really tell the fractals in the different times right here. They just keep on going and going and going and going in a fractal way now there is a tutorial that Andreas did for iflames as well, I will include that link down below but that was before he made the iflames module engine wildfire so let’s go ahead and open it.
