It's OpenGL so compatible with Oolite!

Now this one is Beautiful!

I almost forgot to dream about so 'deep' procedural approach ever since I saw Ad Astra.

Thanks for the link, it gives a lot to think about.

Well now, should we come down to chicken-and-the-egg phenomena?

I tried downloading the source here but nothing happens when I click on the button - anybody else managed it? If, yes could you put it somewhere I can get my mits on it (or PM it to me if not too big!)

I've put it here.

The source code for that fantastic program is just 72KB!

Amazing. Praise Be for clever people, who can put a smile on the face of us simple folk.

Thanks RC - much appreciated.

Erm... looks more like 237Kb. But you're welcome

OK, you're right - forgot it was zipped - but still erm, tiny!

Take look at this: Fr-041: Debris (procedurally generated city in 179 kb) and Elevated (realistic landscape generation in 4 kb). Press 'Download', unzip the archive and launch the demo.

Both demos written using DirectX 9 and require a decent video card to run.

Youtube videos for Mac users: Debris and Elevated.
