hello Newnome! thanks for the amount of knowledge, math has become a little easier thanks to you. I'm trying to recreate strange attractors, specifically the Clifford Attractor, based on the techniques shown in this video tutorial, but I think something is going wrong. I have 4 variables (a, b, c, d) and I'm trying to set them via Math TOP and Constant TOP but I don't see any difference. The values are positive and negative and when I put all the expressions in a Reorder TOP, TD generates a single curved line and not a 3D shape (I set all the function in Degrees).
When I put a negative value in the constant (e.g., R = -1, G = -1, B = -1) the constant TOP obviously turns black and I do not understand if TD reads this value as -1 or 0. Same thing with Math TOP.
In this case, Clifford's Attractor consists of three variables (x, y and z), can I set them via Ramp TOP? Or is this a wrong way?

Hi!
Thank you si much! It's quite difficult for me to understand that without a patch but are you sure you changed pixel format of the reorder top to 32-rgb?

this is really well done! i guess if you take a torus shape and unwrap his points than blend the mobius and the torus, and you sample those points in a vertex shader i guess you can get a 3d version of it!! LOVE IT thanks!!!
