With two of my friends, we develop, since 2015, a program on Unity3D capable of making realistic
procedural worlds
in 3D.
Some features at present:
- Real sized environments (1:1 scale terrains)
- Progressive level of detail system
- Mountainous area procedural algorithm
- Procedural material and vegetation placement trying to mimic natural processes
- Realistically scaled volumetric cloud coverage and weather system (In development)
- Terrain editing, roads, dirt paths, rivers, lakes (In development)
And some technologies used:
- Multithread programming, C#
- Shaders programming, CG
- DEM Data Manipulation
- GPU Computing using a C++ DLL, DirectCompute/HLSL
- Raymarching
If you want more information, explanations, images and videos, you can look at our dev blog and these screenshots!
