Lithosphere Terrain Generator

[Tim Blokdijk]

I came across this project, I thought that it's quite interesting. It's written in Python and licensed as AGPL version 3.0 so it's not something that can be hooked into the engine.
Other than showing it, I'm also suspecting that it would theoretically be possible to generate the terrain in real time as needed (as it seems to be 100% procedural), essentially creating an unlimited map. I also see some really interesting path-finding problems..

I saw this tool but the rub of generating terrain for maps the real issue is generate the large texture not the heightfield.
