Hi,

So now I feel less lonely...
Euh... take care about your knees, the picture's size seems a bit heavy no ? ;-). But now it's clear. I tested the same manip but before I rendered the 3 fractals separately without any problem, it's only when the renders are simultaneous the problems occur.
I suspect thread conflicts.

I concur. I've spent the last hour duplicating the errors and my conclusion is : let's not publicize multi-rendering just yet. It was more or less disabled in 0.1 and it is now in 0.2, although the code is a bit dirty.


Calling VCL objects methods or assembler routines from separate threads is bad. It will have to be sorted out for the next version though.

Hatojem, please keep the size of your attachments down. I know we live in the broadband era, but some people are still using 56K modems and a 200Kb email is considered as big. You can crop the pictures, reduce their size or raise the compression ratio. Next time you do it I'll force you to install Windows ME on your machine(*). You've been warned. :-)

I'll put the maximum attachment size to the vote later on but until then let's try to keep them as small as possible.

Cheers,

Nicolas Desprez
