Programs generates terrain with different options in a skybox.
Computer Graphics - Project 4
** Controls
- R: load a new terrain
- V: toggle between first-person nav mode and observer model view mode
- W/S: in first-person nav mode, move forward/backward
- P: in first-person nav mode, reset to original position
- F: toggle fog on/off
- +/-: increase/decrease fog density
** Navigation
- In first person nav mode:
- W/S: move forward/backward
- Move mouse: rotate view perspective
- Click and drag mouse: reposition mouse without rotating view
- In observer model view mode:
- Click and drag mouse: rotate terrain
** Menus
- Appearance Mode
- Color: shows colored terrain
- Texture: shows textured terrain
- Texture and Color: shows terrain with color and texture
- Diamond Square Visualization: originally a mistake during texturing, uses the i, j grid coordinates as texture coordinates, such that the textures end up offering a visual representation of the "diamonds" and "squares" of the diamond square algorithm
- Toggle Water
- Water on: terrain at or below y=0.3 is flattened at y=0.3 and given water texture
- Water off: terrain below y=0.3 is given grass texture
