Comment on Isosurface Extraction by whendric so

In reply to Manu.

Marching cubes provides the best performance, since it uses a lookup table to resolve geometry. Transvoxel is also extremely fast, but it’s optimized for massive terrains and therefore contains a lot of unnecessary optimizations for sculpting objects. If this is your first time working with isosurfaces, I would recommend starting with marching cubes.

Hey there! Awesome stuff here! Version control with Unity is truly a pain, which is unfortunate, since it’s my engine of choice.

You may recognize me from gamedev.net, as deltaKshatriya. I didn’t know you blogged too!
