Found an interesting video on Youtube that has “video based terrain illumination” which I presume means GPU generated lighting for the terrain. It looks insteresting and perhaps I could investigate further into this subject.
Another example here on dynamic shadows:
Still need some external input in regards to my initial ideas. I am not sure if it will be adequate for the requirements of the honours thesis.
Finally got all the settings done for the blog. Time to progress with the task at hand.
First action was to have a brainstorm of the topics that I wish to cover. From the brainstorming session, the main “theme” of the honours project is on Terrain Generation. I chose this area because I am interested in it and also that I have some background knowledge in regards to this topic as my previous courseworks were based on this.
I have also looked at another topic such as realistic simulation of fluids and particles (such as fire, smoke, rain, etc). At the moment I am not sure of which should I focus on.
