'''libNoise''' generates coherent noise. [[Map Maker]] is similar, but uses a diamond square algorithm. It has not been rigorously tested, but most things that don't involve file reading/writing should work. I really only changed the makefile. 

It has also been ported to [http://www.big-black-block.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=25&Itemid=21&b1081adb7c6b058153fc6ad76eb00193=eb3cafad97e5cb396feb8959d9265346 XNA]. A [http://vimeo.com/9487881 video with libnoise xna]. 

The quartz composer plugin ([http://kineme.net/release/Texture/0.5 Leopard], [http://kineme.net/release/Texture/0.4 Tiger]) can be useful for trying module compositions without recompiling a program.

===Demo===
*[http://scwii.googlecode.com/files/libnoise.zip download]
The libNoise demo program creates terrain using perlian noise, and renders it using noise utils. Noise utils is not part of the library. The source is included in the library download. Nunchuk c + analog stick changes lighting. Wii remote A generates a new random landscape.
