Undiscovered worlds, real-time procedural generation of virtual three-dimensional spaces

TL;DRAbstract

This study attempted to create a game world of enormous proportions that consisted of a visual variety of procedurally generated and distributed objects. A framework was designed to accommodate several procedural generation approaches for the various components of the virtual space. <br><br>Game worlds have become increasingly larger and more detailed over the last decade. The approach to manually create all the objects in a game world has become more and more problematic as the increase of workload demands a higher commitment of time and resources and the current solution to “hire more artists” does not scale well with the higher demands of future game worlds. <br><br>The approach to reuse a limited collection of objects to fill a game world with content is also problematic, as this repetition can be recognised by the players. As a result, the frequent repetition of geometries and textures becomes more obvious and runs the risk of boring the player. Moreover, such frequent repetition
