WFC Level Generation
Gamedev

The WaveFunctionCollapse algorithm is an amazing piece of tech that can greatly increase your workflow in bitmap generation, level generation and overall content creation. In this project, you can see how to expand upon this using Houdini's massive toolkit of built-in tools. See how you can use PDG to parallelize content creation and supercharge creative workflows for artists.

NOTE: This asset uses the latest SideFX Labs tools. Make sure they are installed when using these tools.

      You can ignore those parameter warnings. If PDG_INST is empty you need to install the hda from $HIP/hda manually.
