I just realized I never posted a video showing my most recent version of GPU hydraulic erosion, so here it is :) heightmap size is 1024x1024, rendered with tessellation shaders with displacement mapping. Textures from FreePBR.com and Textures.com

OpenGL procedural terrain.
Here is a smalll list of some of the techniques I used here:
. tessellation shaders
. trilinear texture mapping
. 2D billboards
. displacement mapping
. wind animation using noise texture
. HDR
. advanced bloom via downsampling
 

Thank you for the reply and giving an helpful and insightful explanation! 

Maybe this is part of the problem:

float3 va = normalize(float3(size.xy, s21 - s01));
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:

Currently searching for beta testers for #TileMesh!

What is it?
A tool for Windows, OSX and Linux to help indie devs and modelers create large-size, scale terrain objects for their games using simple CSV (ie from Tiled) or indexed PNG files - UV mapped to a tilemap image of your choosing.

Definitely looks like basic splat maps.

hello.

I found that btStridingMeshInterface is required to create btBvhTriangleMeshShape.

But all I have is as much data as (Width * Height) for btTerrainHeightfieldShape. There is no index information on the data.

Then, I found this post on Forum : viewtopic.php?p=38852&hilit=btTriangleI ... ray#…

The work about the beaches is almost finished. There are many of them and I will add teleporters in order to reach them without walking for hours into the jungle. 

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