#Welcome to the CashGen wiki!

##What is it?

Cashgen is an UnrealEngine 4 plugin that dynamically generates terrain at runtime. The terrain is generated in chunks around the player as they move, and discarded as they go out of range, creating a nearly limitless world. The terrain mesh is built using the RuntimeMeshComponent.

##What is it not?

Cashgen is not a voxel engine. Terrains are heightmap-based (so no caves) and at present cannot be deformed by the player.

#Main Features

  • Modular noise using my UnrealFastNoise plugin, many varieties of noise available, plus blending, masking etc.
  • LOD levels with dithered blending
  • Per LOD collision/tesselation options
  • Simple hydraulic (droplet) erosion
  • Biomes (two)
  • My terrible material skills :)
