Terrain is coming along nicely. The differentiation stuff lets me calculate the curvature of the terrain at a given point, so I can use more polygons where the ground is curvy, and less where it's flat.




The more I learn about graphics programming, the more I realize I'm doing this wrong. The cpu's job is to tell the video card what to do. I'm doing all this clever dynamic level of detail stuff with terrain generated at run time, where I ought to just use a big file with all the polygons. Oh well, this way is pretty fun. If it is a performance problem i can always generate this stuff up front.
