[comp.graphics] Ocean synthesis : Help !!!!!

isacreman@brb.isnet.inmos.co.uk (03/12/90)

    Hi Folks,


  I am unsuccessfully trying to produce a C program from an article in
IEEE CG&A March 1987. The article is titled 'Fourier Synthesis of Ocean
Scenes', written by Gary Mastin, Peter Watterberg, and John Mareda.

  I have produced a working program from the algorithm described in the
article, but the data obtained from this program is, as far as I can
tell, wrong (ie. changing the white noise produces white noise).

  Has anybody successfully implemented this algorithm and produced screen
pictures ?????? (and even animated these pictures?).

  If so, could they mail a working program (preferably in C or Pascal) or
good Pseudo-Code or describe how they coded the algorithm. Anything, I just
need Help!!!

  Also, has anyone got any other Ocean Synthesis programs, or know of any?


    Cheers in advance, Richy.
