- Fractal Landscape Generator v1.3
- Copyright (c) 1992 Steve Anger
- This program is freely distributable
-
- FRGEN is a utility to generate fractal landscapes and other shapes
- using successive triangle sub-division. The fractal data can be output
- as POV-Ray 1.0 or Vivid 2.0 scene files or as raw triangle data. FRGEN
- only generates flat faceted triangles. To produce smoothed fractals you
- can output the fractal to RAW format and then run the data through the
- programs Sandpaper (Vivid, MTV, Rayshade) or raw2pov (POV-Ray).
-
- Changes in v1.3
- - modified for POV-Ray 1.0 and Vivid 2.0 output format.
-
- Changes in v1.2
- - replaced DKB output with PoV output.
- - added Vivid and raw triangle output formats.
-
- Changes in v1.1
- - you can now start the fractal generation from any arbitrarily
- specified set of base triangles instead of the simple square base
- which was used in v1.0. You can now generate fractal spheres, boxes,
- specifically shaped mountain ranges, etc.
-
- - the program will now create an efficient set of bounding shapes for
- the huge number of triangles generated. Scenes generated with v1.1
- will typically render 5 to 10 times faster than those generated with
- v1.0
-
- - the 3D projection is now much more accurate, plus you can specify the
- view-point and look-at coordinates instead of just the viewing angle.
-
- Includes C++ source.
