City Generator

I found this code for Python that would allow cities to be produced on the fly. Auto generation of assets has always interested me. arnaud.ile.nc/sce/home
It is amazing as it creates textures as well as buildings. This could be just the thing for creating backdrops, and with some work, actual playable levels. One of the things I have always wanted to do was create highly detailed beautiful landscapes using code to generate the missions. Of course you would use some prebuilt modular assets, but the program would be able to create many plausible variations.

but city engine may be the best.with the help of OpenStreetMap's geographical data u can make any city like NYC in minutes.even indoors of each building.
it seems Suicidator City Generator has improved greatly in last couple of months.
that guy also has made an free tree generator.do not know what is it's current state.but it seems he has converted that to a online tree generation system.here is his youtube account:

there are some other tools and scripts (mainly for 3d max) to generate city.but city engine may be the best.with the help of OpenStreetMap's geographical data u can make any city like NYC in minutes.even indoors of each building.

That's way cool, thanks for the link! I'm pretty sure I can use this in my current project :D.

That's really cool. That looks like a really fun product to make. Now to the big question, does it optimize a scene well for draw call/video mem performance or does is that an exercise that's left up to the end-user developer?

It looks like it would be end user adapted for whatever use. I am betting this is more for video presentation than anything else.
