An interactive 3D terrain simulation written in C++ using OpenGL 4 and Qt 5. The main features include:

• Procedurally generated terrain and forests.
• Continuous level of detail: Terrain chunks farther away from the camera are rendered with less detail (triangles). The LODing is done entirely on the GPU using tessellation shaders.
• Single-plane terrain texture and light mapping.
• Static mesh loading and rendering system.
• Simple animated water.
• Customizable settings menu.
• Qt Quick integration.

Note: The project may build and run with different configurations. The following are only guarunteed to work.

• Build Machine
  • C++ Toolchain: GCC 4.9.2+ | MSVC 14.0+
  • Qt: 5.5+
• Target Machine
  • OS: Windows 7+ | Ubuntu 15+ | Android 6.0+ (coming soon)
  • OpenGL: 4.3+

Simply open Terrain3D.qbs in Qt Creator and hit build. When running from the IDE, make sure the working directory is set to <root_path_to_terrain3d>/Deployment/Bin/. Otherwise none of the relative resource paths will work.
