Short: Fractal landscape generator
Author: billy@uni-paderborn.de (Michael Böhnisch)
Uploader: billy@uni-paderborn.de (Michael Böhnisch)
Version: 0.0
Type: gfx/fract
Requires: AmigaOS 3.0+, 68020/030 + FPU or 68040, AGA or Gfx board recommended
This is an alpha release of AMountains, a fractal mountain landscape
generator. It is based on xmountains 2.4 (UNIX, X) by Stephen Booth and
was ported to the Amiga by Michael Böhnisch.
Call AMountains -? for a short description of available options. For a
quick try set up your Workbench preferences to 640×400 or bigger with as
many colours as possible (256 is nice).
In a shell window now enter
AMountains -M -r 1 -Z 0 -F 2 -G -2.0 -a 1.5 -p 6.0
Restrictions of this release:
· the paint window is currently restricted to a 620×380 Workbench window
· 68020/030 + 68881/2 or 68040 needed
· task priority fixed to -25
· no option parameter handling when called from Workbench
· ugly UNIX-Style option handling (needs complete rework)
· no source (will be included when finished)
· no documentation (try "Amountains -?" or "AMountains -H" for now)
