Title: Heightfields Post by: JosLeys on November 09, 2010, 01:15:18 PM My algorithm in UF is coming along rather well, although I'm still working on it.
There are 57 images like the one below at http://www.josleys.com/show_gallery.php?galid=337 (http://www.josleys.com/show_gallery.php?galid=337). Title: Re: Heightfields Post by: cKleinhuis on November 09, 2010, 02:06:52 PM great images, have you published your formula yet ?

Title: Re: Heightfields Post by: bib on November 09, 2010, 11:55:23 PM great images, have you published your formula yet ? I asked him, but he said he still wants to debug it ;) Title: Re: Heightfields Post by: JosLeys on November 10, 2010, 11:09:31 PM Yes, well, I'm still working on it.
Trying to add in some fake ambient occlusion like in this image : Title: Re: Heightfields Post by: JosLeys on November 18, 2010, 05:54:32 PM Here is a factor 10 billion zoom on a Julia heightfield..

Seems like the formula is workiong well. When are you going to publish it? Title: Re: Heightfields Post by: bib on November 18, 2010, 07:25:07 PM You just need to paste the http link, the forum does the rest.
Title: Re: Heightfields Post by: JosLeys on November 18, 2010, 09:12:42 PM To bib,
- Thanks, I modified the post, now showing just the http: link - I'm still trying to improve the coloring scheme, as it is not user friendly in its present state, and I don't want to set up a helpdesk once it is published. No idea yet on timing... Title: Re: Heightfields Post by: fractalrebel on December 05, 2010, 01:07:05 AM After an email form Jos I have started a totally new approach to heightfields which doesn't use meshes. It is still very experimental and very buggy but here is an example with a 3500x zoom into the mandelbrot set. It takes about 5 minutes without antialiasing, and about 1.5 hours with (which was used for the attached image.) |
