Wood Texture Generation
Sep 17^th, 2005, 3:17am

I was looking into how to create realistic wood textures. While searching, I came across this freeware program. It generates fairly realistic and high-resolution images. When using it, it gives you a lot of options to tweak the texture, too. (Sorry if this seems like an ad for this program ;)

http://www.spiralgraphics.biz/Wood_Workshop_1,01_Setup.exe (1.8 MB, Windows, requires .NET framework)

Has anyone tried to generate realistic wood textures before The algorithms I have found are based on Perlin noise and sinusoidal distortion. I don't think they look exceptionally good, but the algorithms used by this program are proprietary.

I'll play around with it for a while, but if anyone has any suggestions I'd be willing to listen.

Hello rgovostes

Yea :] These guys appear to be doing some fancy procedural texture generation stuff. It's pretty hawt.

These guys made an entire first person shooter from procedural data, including very similar wood tiles like the software you've shown here.

My 2 cents.
