one link to the blog is sufficient, this article is not about 3D CA. No need to mention specifically support for 3D CA without mentioning any other classes - and *if* that is done, that would be in a separate section, not in the lead.

Visions of Chaos is a Windows application developed by Softology. Among other mathematical simulations, the application provides a way to simulate and explore a number of classes of CA rules, with capabilities focused on video rendering.

Although there are no pattern editing features, it is possible to evolve a randomly filled pattern according to any user-chosen rule. The configuration dialog of the "2D Generations Cellular Automata" mode allows to select a .LIF pattern from a supplied collection of patterns.

The program can be run under Linux via Wine, although a message is shown on the start that warns that some features may not be available.
