Voxel Plugin

Optimization described above added, allowing to go from O(N^3) to O(N^2), O(N) or O(1) in many cases. In my tests the world generation was more than twice as fast.

1. Mine is insanely better, even the free version has more features. He doesn’t have LODs, perf sucks etc
2. Voxel farm is using a more precise algorithm, where you can have sharp features. If you don’t need that marching cubes (that I use) are just as good. My plugin is way more basic than VF, but IMO is far enough to achieve awesome stuff What are you trying to do exactly?

I’m just a noob hobyist, but basically, I’d like to do something similar to 7 days to die, but scifi themed. I believe that 7d2d use some different tech for their voxels, but I have to use what is available to me. OTOH, by now, 150 USD won’t make much of a difference in my expenses…

EDIT: I probably made my reply sound “over enthusiastic”. I already bought basically 100% of all assets I need, including characters, sound effect, blueprints, animations, systems, … “All I have to do”, is to glue it all together. :rolleyes: And if it wasn’t clear, I only meant to use a voxel plugin for the procedurally generated terrain; I’ll use something else for the “building” part. In fact, I think the end result will be more like Empyrion than 7D2D (which I didn’t mention, because 7D2D is 10 times more well known than Empyrion).
