# MarbleShader

VTKExamples/Cxx/Shaders/MarbleShader

### Description

This example shows how to add user functions to a VTK shader. The example's fragment shader uses an implementation of Ken Perlin's noise function. Perlin received a Technical Achievement Academy Award for his work procedural texture.

The file for the shader code is here..

Usage

MarbleShader PerlnNoise.glsl [polydataFile] [veincolor(1,1,1)] [veinfreq(10)] [veinlevels(2)] [warpfreq(1)] [warping(.5)] [sharpness(8)]

Perlin's original Siggraph Paper.

This shader is inspired by Larry Gritz's veined marble shader.

Click here to download MarbleShader and its CMakeLists.txt file. Once the tarball MarbleShader.tar has been downloaded and extracted,

    cd MarbleShader/build

If VTK is installed:

    cmake ..

If VTK is not installed but compiled on your system, you will need to specify the path to your VTK build:

    cmake -DVTK_DIR:PATH=/home/me/vtk_build ..

Build the project:

    make

and run it:

    ./MarbleShader

WINDOWS USERS

Be sure to add the VTK bin directory to your path. This will resolve the VTK dll's at run time.
