I'm not sure what to use for my game's terrain generation (in Unity). Advice?
I've looked at both Gaia and Terragen. Terragen has an abysmal amount of tutorials. Gaia doesn't have the option to really control the border regions of terrain.
I need something like "adobe photoshop for terrain".
- I want to be able to literally HAND-DRAW features like coastlines etc (Gaia is out), but once I have hand drawn the basic outlines of things, I would love a program that could then take over with realistic erosion etc.
- I would like something with a reasonable amount of tutorials that I can follow (I google'd "make a continent in Terragen - crickets. Should be something you can get a written or video tutorial on, but of course there are tutorials on making other planets...).
- I really like Gaia's ability to procedurally generate terrain though, it's beautiful, too bad it doesn't let you hand draw things. It would be great of this program offered this functionality.
- Definitely needs to be capable of modern photorealism.
- Having built in very high quality vegetation that I can use in my project would be a huge plus, but I can use PlantFactory for that if I have to (honestly I am not sure what the whole deal is with vegetation if it's a common feature or if the programs mostly expect you to provide your own).
- Very preferably, they have a cheaper monthly subscription. I cannot drop more than $300 on a program (considering how many other things I need to buy) and I definitely need a trial so I can see if I like it first.
- Needs to be unity friendly (ie: plug and play and gogogo, not a draw everything-just-to-get-a-heightmap-and-reload-everything-after) type deal.
I know absolutely jack squat as far as things on the unity store that may or may not fit this bill, so there is also that (I've only really looked into the dedicated programs).
Appreciate the recommendations.

ProcGen Radio Station - How It Works
I posted about this online stream project fifteen years in the making a couple months ago. Inspired by your questions, I added a page on how it generates its mixes and effects. Many of the techniques were drawn from material I learned teaching a Procedural Methods class last quarter.

My Perlin noise
This is my try to make Perlin noise.

Top left is what looks like a regular Perlin noise.
Top right is the one with linear interpolation of the value. It is surprisingly different.
Bot row is the same but the vector to corner is normalized. Again, unexpected result.
Are these results correct?

Ask help for dungeon procedural generation
Hi,
I've spent the last few days examining different procedural generation algorithms for creating dungeons. After some reflection, I'm reaching out to you for help. Here's what I want to achieve:
I want to generate a graph nodes representing different rooms and the connections between them. This is where I encounter the most difficulty: translating this graph directly into the game, considering that all the rooms are of different shapes (square, L, T, O, etc.) and sizes, and they are all adjacent without any corridors.
After extensive research, I came across this site that describes pretty well what I want to do: Graph-based dungeon generator basics.
Unfortunately, maybe it's just me, but I find the technical explanations sometimes very unclear, which leaves me a bit unsure about how to proceed.
I wanted to know if you had any sources to recommend for this type of generation or perhaps more detailed explanations.
For your information, I am using Unity as the game engine.

help for procedural snake generation
Hi everyone, I would like to start a big project whose aim is to generate (kinda) realistic snake images, I think I know how I want to organize the work but I don't have any clues on how to do for each of the different parts I've identified. Does anyone have experience with one of these fields (btw it doesn't need to be realtime and can be expensive to generate):
- snake curve and movement : beginning with just 2 dimensions, the idea would be to simulate the movement of a snake, with some constraints like the impossibility of self-intersection and a minimum curvature radius (limiting how sharp the turns can be). I thought about a discretization of the curve, storing regularly spaced points and then interpolating, but I don't know what interpolation method would be best, or maybe there is even a better solution.
- scales system : after the generation of the curve, a 3d "cylinder" following the curve could easily be rendered, and I would then need to add scales on it, and I would like to allow a lot of control on the scales shape to reproduce the great variety of shapes encountered in nature. What I would like to have is a mathematical equation to describe the shape of a scale with several parameters. And then I would need a way to combine all these individual scales to make the full skin - actually maybe not the head, as the scales layout on the head is very complex.
- realistic eye generation : I would like to create really realistic eyes, and actually even for human eyes I couldn't find anything truly satisfactory, with accurate colors and pattern diversity.
- pattern generation : I only found one paper about the generation of snake patterns, and it didn't venture much into patterns more complex than stripes or dots. My idea is to use reaction-diffusion equations, but for now I've only simulated such processes on a 2d grid, and for example I couldn't figure out how to adapt it to a sphere, so I don't know how it could be used in the case of complex 3d shapes.
Thank you in advance for your answers

Cellular Automata for procedural simulation in Stars Reach?
How do you suspect Cellular Automata is being used for the upcoming game Stars Reach? It seems like their physics engine might be doing some kind of cellular Automata calculation in order to handle structural integrity, water flow, etc.
The details are hazy so far...
> we’re already pulling off something a bit unusual: modelling a world at MMO scale using cellular automata. What that means: we know the humidity, the temperature, the material, the viscosity, the adhesion, for every cubic meter of the world.
(https://www.raphkoster.com/2024/07/03/wishlist-stars-reach-and-its-living-world/)
...but I'm very interested in learning how C.A. can be used like this. Any ideas?
