Some experiments with realtime water & erosion simulation on heightfield terrains, using OpenGL 4.3.

Technology, How stuff works

Basics

• C++11 (using mainly Visual Studio 2013
• OpenGL 4.3

Dependencies

• trunk version of ezEngine (also taking a minor part into its development) ** Used for File IO, Memory Management, Basic Math, Window creation, Input, ...
• GLU
• AntTweakBar

Todo/Planned Features

(List not complete, mostly a memory aid to my self)

• Water Rendering ** Implement visible Waterflow like described here: http://www.slideshare.net/alexvlachos/siggraph-2010-water-flow-in-portal-2
• Fancy erosion stuff
• Moar sliders
• Athmospheric Scattering
