OpenGL 3D Game Tutorial 14: Simple Terrain
0LWJGL tutorial series on how to create a 3D Java game with OpenGL!
This week we program a terrain renderer and generate a simple flat terrain!
Code for generating terrain: https://www.dropbox.com/s/47qk4yrz5v9lb61/Terrain%20Generation%20Code.txt?dl=0

Common Problems:
-If you can't see the terrain make sure your camera is in the right position! It needs to have a y position of above 0, and if you still can't see the terrain then try turning the camera around by setting the "yaw" to 180.
-Make sure that you're starting and stopping the *terrain shader* (and NOT the static shader program) before and after rendering the terrain in the MasterRenderer's render() method.
-If the texture on the terrain only looks good in one corner then try adding these 2 lines into your loadTexture method before returning the texture's ID:
GL11.glTexParameteri(GL11.GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL11.GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_S, GL11.GL_REPEAT);
GL11.glTexParameteri(GL11.GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL11.GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_T, GL11.GL_REPEAT);
