The Terra-Infinitum project is an effort to create an infinite world.
Infinite, in that the world extends in all directions forever, and that all aspects of the world are generated procedurally by the underlying engine:
· Terrain
· Rocks
· Animated Clouds
· Animated Sun
· Stars
· Animated Trees and plants
· Lakes
· Animated Oceans
· Sounds
· Textures
In order to achieve this, Terra-Infinitum uses fractal algorithms to produce natural shapes, textures and sounds.
Because the equations that produce the fractals are unchanging, the landscape at a given location with it’s objects remains the same every time you visit that location.
The pictures at right are screen-shots taken at random from within the world.
