Very nice !

 Will you be leaving your "tutorial" at that address ? If you do then I
will link to it from the POV-Ray tutorials section of povray.org links
pages so that others may learn from it as well.

Ooh! Aah! Where does the original stone map come from?

Hi Kari!

'till now I didn't get the meaning of the Level Connector. Whats it's
purpose?
How does the input file looks like? Is it the texture, or the mask or
what?

Thanks in advance


Karl

The LC interpolates levels in "free" (pixv=255) areas
to form a smooth transition between perimeter pixels.
This is also a solution to the analog heat distribution
problem where the pixel values are temperatures.

Since the solution is obtained by iteration there is
a "side effect". When all the perimeter pixels are equal,
as in this case, this method eventually produces flat plane
but with small iteration counts the perimeter pixels
"bring down" those high free areas at a rate pixel/iteration.
The black parts of the mask could be considered as a
"distributed black hole" that eats the free areas :)

So basically it's an interpolator and in this case you input the mask.

Now available as Windows command line version and Leveller plug-in.
The plugin has only one parameter to change for the benefit of
GUI oriented people :) http://www.idrive.com/k_k/web/levcon.htm.

K.K.
