GFORGE

Generates a landscape texture using a process known as "random fractal forgery". The generated landscapes are very realistic in appearance, yet calculated from a simple algorythm. The output files are in 24-bit TGA or PNG format and may be used as standalone files or as backgrounds for POV scenes. A large amount of control is possible when creating these landscapes and the doc is very detailed. The program can hardly be described as user- friendly but the results can be impressive to say the least.
