float3 vb = normalize(float3(size.yx, s12 - s10));

float3 localNormal = float3(cross(va, vb) / 2 + 0.5f);

You forgot to normalize the final normal, while normalizing the two tangents isn't needed. So it should be:

All of these are totally procedural, with hundred of t…

A simple way to generate limitless terrain in real time, in plain HTML5/JavaScript!

This article explains in some detail how I generate terrain in The Forest (www.myforest.uk) as the player moves around. I discovered the techniques around 1980 when making games for a TRS-80 with only 16 kilobytes of memory available. In 2014 I began converting my old Z80 assembler to HTML5/JavaScr…
