Perlin Noise CIKernel (Composition by smokris)
Here's a CIKernel implementation of the Improved Perlin Noise algorithm, based on the reference implementation http://mrl.nyu.edu/~perlin/noise/ . Drop "Perlin Noise CIKernel.qtz" into "perlin.qtz" is an example of how to use it. This is fairly inefficient, as Core Image Kernel Language doesn't support arrays (!), so I ended up dumping the Perlin permutation array into an image (see "perlin-tga.c") and then loading the image into QC and sampling it. Suggestions regarding how to improve performance are welcomed. Release: Particle Tools, v0.3

Release: Value Historian, v20090114
Release Type:
Beta
Version:
20090114
Release Notes
Warning: These patches are now part of DataTools. Use that plugin instead.
This update fixes playback, which previously gave slightly erroneous output for a given input time. Also applied a few other small optimizations, so it should be a bit snappier (probably not noticeable though). |
