Take the Mystica
tour, click images
to zoom.
 |
This is the
image definition
screen that
allows
to create
ingenious
artwork with a
couple
of mouse clicks.
Snapshots,
unlimited undo
and redo levels
as well as
extendable presets help in finding
unique images.
A Chaos slider
allows to
continually add
chaotic
structures, a
Sequence button
presents
variations while
preserving the
image character.
Coloring is done
in layers with
adjustable
transparency.
Each control is
described
here.

A very
interesting
feature is the
video
generation. Take
any of your
created images
and define a
belonging second
image. All video
frames are
automatically
generated as a
transition
between
the two images.
Videos can be
exported in all
video formats
(divx, mpeg4
etc). Mystica
comes with an
integrated video
player that
allows to copy
individual video
frames as
images.
Videos can be edited and
extended even
after rendering,
hence allowing
for complex
creations.
See the video
tutorial for
details. |

|
 |
Once an image or
video is
defined, it is
moved to the
"Render Queue".
The queue takes
care of
rendering in
selectable sizes
of up to
8000x6000 pixels.
Rendering is
done by a
separate thread in
background until
all images are
ready.
Once an image or
video is
rendered, it is
moved to the
Gallery. |
| |
|
 |
The Gallery
contains all
images and
videos that have
been rendered.
All
settings are
still available and
can be edited by
going back to
the design
or movie screens.
Assets can be
opened, copied,
and exported in
all major
graphic formats.
The ".mys"
format allows
saving and
reloading
the image
or video together with
all settings.
An HTML gallery
generator
creates
galleries and
optionally adds
the ".mys" file
for later
reloading. |

|
 |
Digital effects
enhance your
art in a
variety of ways.
Different
filters of
adjustable
kernel size,
layers and a special 3D
lighting section
are at hand.
Any image source
can be pasted as
effect or layer
input;
similarly, the
output can be
looped back to
input or
assigned to any
layer.
Both the
original and
final image are
saved with all
settings for
later editing.
Effects can be
assigned to each
movie frame.
See the effect
tutorial for
details. |

The fun part
of Mystica is
the third
dimension. Your
images are
recomputed into
a height field
which can be
explored
interactively by
means of
helicopter,
virtual camera,
off-road Jeep or
a walking human.
This is pure
fun!
Take
snapshots from
any position and
experience your
virtual world in
3D, see below.
You can also
paste arbitrary
images from the
clipboard and
experience them
in 3D! |

These are actual
screenshots of
the 3D part.
Take a ride
through your
landscape and
shoot 3D
screenshots of
your 2D image -
or record a
video from your
tour through
your world! |
