powerPlant Description

powerPlant is a geometry generator and editor. powerPlant is a geometry generator and editor. powerPlant is specially suitable to generate terrain and plant models. The geometry generation is based on custom implementations of L-Systems, Turtle-Interpretation and the Diamond-and-Square algorithm.powerPlant is composed of a Java application supplying the application logic and external Haskell programs for geometry generation.The application is intended to create complex, realistic models by supplying a minimum ammount of parameters instead of explicit modelling. Created models can be combined recursively to make up complete scenes. This scene creation is presented in a WYSIWYG tree view. The integrated terrain tool can also be used to generate various coloured, tileable textures.Every work result (models, scenes) can be loaded and saved in a xml file. User interaction takes place in a convenient Java Swing GUI that brings together all the aspects of the application.The chosen approach should significantly shorten the process of creating adequate 3D-models and entire virtual landscapes with realtime visualization. Visualization is based on OpenGL/GLU API and includes adjustable speed optimizations.Requirements:· Java 1.5· GHC 6.4· jsr231 (jogl)Installation:java -jar powerPlant-install-1.0.0.0.jarWhat's New in This Release:· Major file reorganization(repository), user-defined inputs, sample projects, and a quick start guide.
