I Added Procedural Generation to My Voxel Engine !
What's better than a voxel world ? An infinite voxel world ! That's why in this video I added procedural generation to my voxel engine to allow it to generate infinite worlds as you move around. It uses perlin noise to generate smooth terrain and a chunk system to load and unload it.
I also vastly improved the destruction system of the engine by fixing many bugs with it and allowing it to destroy in all directions and even create tunnels.
I also started making the world more interesting by adding trees, but I'll need a better solution later.
In the next part, I'll probably add better lighting to make everything look better ! I'm thinking about a form of ray tracing or ray marching but optimized for voxels so stay tuned.

Things used for the engine: OpenGL & C++
