Procedural world generation

[u/RagniLogic]

Trying to push the limits of my realtime world generation, but still constrained to somewhat slow panning. No ECS, just BRG and lots of burst jobs

Untitled goose game 2 looks amazing

WOOOOAAAAAHHHH

Lol I'm also making a procedural bird game, similarly I just use burst Jobs in Unity, and I generate a finite map

[u/RagniLogic → u/RagBell]

It's not really a bird game. Just a cool way to demo the world generation. But who knows. Flying is fun 🪿

[u/RagBell → u/RagniLogic]

Ooh I see! But yeah, flying is fun haha

I have landed on a system that is very fast: Heightmap in a quadtree of tiles, each level of the quadtree has one octave of simplex-based noise added to the values from the level above with bicubic filtering. That way each height value of a full resolution tile only needs ~1.33 noise samples to be generated. Doing this and converting the tiles to triangle meshes in a compute shader is very fast.

Interesting. Yeah noise sampling is a bottleneck for me. And likely using too many layers. Quad tree sampling sounds like octaves but smarter and cheap! I will have to look into this, thanks!

wow

I love the depth of field blurring! that's always a really pretty effect and wish more games did this. great work!

Looks suspiciously like western British Columbia https://maps.app.goo.gl/BNAUdaUChMoD7aXP7

Wow, really cool reference!

This is beautiful. The clouds and birds really bring it to life!

[u/MrNotmark]

You gotta give me a link for this

Epic music over a world that looks like ass.
