Fractal Landscape Generator - A Plugin for GenesisII

Function
This plugin generates a fractal landscape for rendering in GenesisII.

Setting up the plugin
Simply copy the fractal.glg file to your GenesisII plugins directory. As this plugin is written in Borland C++Builder you must also download the C++Builder common file set from our site and copy it to your GenesisII or Windows system directory.

Options
The plugin displays a dialog box to control generation parameters. The fractal surface is generated as a new grid.

• Grid Size: Select the grid size required.
• Grid Point Spacing: Distance between grid points.
• Random Number Seed: A seed value used to generate the fractal surface.
• Roughness: Local roughness. Set this to a low value to obtain a smooth surface
• Maximum Height: Grid heights will be generated between 0 and this value
• Glaciation: Controls height dependent flattening of the generated landscape. Set to a low value to obtain evenly sloped shapes, higher values flatter planes with sharp peaks.
