Simplex Noise Example

Published 2023-06-12


Hi all,
I'm working on a space game with procedurally generated planets and thought others may benefit from the simplex noise functions I'm using.

This is ported the reference examples at:

The whitepaper can be found here:

Feel free to use. Be aware that perlin noise (predecessor to simplex noise) has a patent. Here's an alternative: OpenSimplexNoise

Enjoy!

Edit: That patent is for simplex noise
