Flowing video animations.
This is our largest version to-date, with so many new features.
Our 11th year making fractal apps supporting GPU rendering.
Check our website to see why Fractal Architect 5 is the King of Flame Fractal apps.
No other fractal app has all these tools. No other flame fractal app has the GPU render performance.
◆ Tools:
⁃ Transform Editor
- Variants & Super Variants Editors
- Cross-Breeder
- Lua Scripted Fractal Creation/Mangling
- Create Videos in the app - Basic animation tools.
- Compositing & Transparent Fractals
◆ Features requiring In-app purchases:
1) GPU Rendering - OpenCL or Metal - Multiple GPUs in 1 Mac supported.
2) Animation Sequencer - Create state-of-the-art sequenced video animations.
Capable of creating extremely complex animations and long videos with audio track.
New Features in Version 5: ———————————————————
◆ eGPU Support (requires GPU rendering in-app purchase) - Render up to 50 X faster than CPU - WOW !
◆ New: Composite Multi-Fractals: Fractals made from other fractals:
⁃ Cross Breed them
- Splice them together
- Layer them
- Sub-flame instancing
◆ New: First class support for Layered Fractals
- All fractals are layered. Full tool support.
◆ New: True 3D
- 3D fractals that are “really” 3D - not Pseudo 3D - not 2D 3 times
- Tetrahedron 3D modeler to edit their 3D matrices
- This is the REAL thing. No more faking 3D.
- 2D fractals are still 2D of course.
◆ New: Smoothed Animation Cuves from Audio Clips
◆ New: Many Extra Lua Features + 50 new Lua scripts
- Fractal tweaking greatly improved over FA 4
- Many new fractal creation scripts
Many other enhancements - too many to list here (See http://fractalarchitect.net for complete list)
GPU Rendering Notice:
- GPU rendering may not work with all fractals
- Render performance depends on the power of the Mac’s CPU & GPU devices
- eGPU peformance with Desktop AMD graphic cards is much faster than laptop GPU
GPU Rendering Trial Window - Risk Free Method to try GPU Rendering
- You will know if it works on your Mac or not - Why pay for GPU rendering if it might not work on your Mac?

Ratings and Reviews
App uses up memory
I have 128GB memory on a M1 Ultra chip. The app continues to use up all memory and I get this message: “Your system has run out of application memory. To avoid problems with your computer, quit any applications you are not using.” I have contacted "Support" multiple times and have not gotten a reply. This happens when I try to render an annimation. App isn't working well for me.
Fun Fractal creation app - Wish flam3 was useable
Good Fractal creation application. It does make it easy for basic stuff and if you add layers, more complex fractals.
It would be an amazing app if the export to Apo flam3 worked and was useable but it appears the export is saved with very specific FA tags and parms so; it's useless for me.
same goes with importing Apo or JWF flames. I would like to leverage the GPU acceleration on FA.
No longer functional
I installed this also purchased the GPU Upgrade. The app worked a couple of times but no longer does. Posted for help on the Support page but no reply. Not happy and want a refund if it's not going to work.
