Procedurally Generated Terrain

The ground is procedurally generated using a random midpoint method and smoothed using a neighborhood smoothing filter. The trees were generated by different procedural rules. The scene uses OpenGL material and lighting.

Shadow Algorithms

The scene contains a 4-sided room that are light-colored blue. Within this scene are various objects included a texture-mapped sphere and several stacked objects. There are 3 different shadow algorithms being used: projective shadows, shadow volumes, and shadow maps. Projective shadows from objects will only cast shadows on the floor and room, but not on […]

Deformable Bodies

A deformable bodies simulator based on a standard non-linear strain finite element simulation as in O’Brien et al. [1999]. This approach required incredibly small time steps.

Procedural Textures

The terrain was created using the same method as the “Procedurally Generated Terrain” project. The procedural texture is based on a noise algorithm. The trees are a texture-mapped image of a tree onto a rectangle. The alpha channels of the tree are transparent. The trees have billboarding apply so that the tree rectangles turn to […]
