- I know absolutely nothing about the algorithms Steve Worley uses to generate
- his textures, but it surprises me at how long it takes to generate, for
- example, a 752x480 IFF image - sometimes you're talking 20 or 30 minutes per
- image, which can be longer than rendering a raytraced scene, or generating a
- procedural texture in LW. Does anybody have some insights on what's involved
- that takes so long ?
