Hello everyone,<\/p>\n

I created an implementation of the Diamond Square Algorithm<\/a> which is a method for developing procedurally generated terrain that can be used for video games or computer graphics. In this implementation of the algorithm I used java to generate a procedural square terrain with a variable amount of subdivisions. I then exported the vertex information of the terrain as a .obj file which can be used in almost any 3D editor.<\/p>\n

Here is a link to the main code<\/a> for the implementation.<\/p>\n

If that does not work here are images of the main functions:<\/p>\n

Here are some example procedural terrains I generated from the code.<\/p>\n
