Mysterious technology: Bring an fictional Island to live using procedural tools
Marc Braun and I will introduce you to a fictional island – the Mysterious Island created by Jules Verne in his novel of the same name. We will show you, how we took that fictional island and recreated it step by step using procedural tools. At the end, we will scatter plant life on the island, and load it up in a game engine to demonstrate a gamers experience of that world.
