How fast time has passed and its now week 3! Anyway, will attempt to answer the questions posed in Worksheet #2 Research Question I have decided to forward my research question or rather research topic as ” An investigation into real time lighting effects for procedurally generated terrain “. I could have phrased this in
This is the first Worksheet task given to us. The aim is to aid choosing a topic of interest for the Honours research project. Below are the questions and my answers for them: Topic of Interest The topic I have chosen for my honours project is “An investigation into the techniques of terrain lighting in
