Procedural terrain generator written from scratch using various procedural technics to reproduce the Swiss topology. The topology is a 3D mesh made of triangles. Among the various methods applied, we find in particular:

• Noise algorithms to create the height map (Perlin noise, Fractal Brownian motion, Swiss turbulence)
• Camera modes (Free navigation in the space, FPS like mode, Camera following Bezier curves)
• Water in motion
• Reflexion of the landscape in the water
• Fogs
• SkyBox
• Day cycles
• Snow
• Shadows of the mountains
• Texture mapping

The infinite map is fully explorable in 3D and every parameter are adjustable.

• Clone the repository in your local workspace
• Open a terminal at the root folder (the folder containing the whole repo)
• mkdir build
• cd build
• cmake ..
• make
• cd project
• ./project

This is the result of a team project for the Introduction to Computer Graphics course taught at EPFL.

The project took 7 weeks and was divided into 3 parts:

• Part I: Procedural generation of terrain (2 weeks)
• Part II: Advanced rendering (2 weeks)
• Part III: Animation / Interaction (3 weeks)
