This is a test project which I made to play around with perlin noise for terrain generation. Excuse me since I can't guarantee that the buildsystem is cross-platform (It was a test project so I didn't integrate a proper cross-platform buildsystem).
The language I am using is C and am rendering using OpenGL and GLFW. For perlin noise algorithm, I am using stb_perlin since it is quite a popular single header library.
The platform I am using :-
- Windows 10, 64-bit
- MinGW-W64 14.1.0
- Buildsystem is Make
- Generated the heightmap using stb_perlin
- Rendered a small piece of flat terrain
- Used the data from the heightmap on the terrain's vertices
- Generated the surface normal for each triangle of the terrain and did some diffuse lighting
- Can change parameters of the app using command line arguments.
- W, A, S & D for movement
- Space for going up (relative to the camera)
- Left Shift for going down (relative to the camera)
- Hold B for wireframe mode
- R for reloading shaders (For devs)
- G for regenerating the heightmap and the terrain (1s cooldown after each use)
- Escape to exit
- Right click to move the camera with mouse
