For the aspiring creator of MUD with Graphics, check out MojoWorld 3
for a graphical something:
http://www.pandromeda.com/
Here is a review on version 2.0:
http://insidecg.com/feature.php?id3 (Note: It is a full point
release higher now).
Maze generator (infamous Jamis Buck dungeon generator):
http://www.aarg.net/~minam/dungeon.cgi
I am unaware of any one bit of software that precisely matches a
dynamic creation of worlds. I use a hodgepodge mix of tools,
myself.
Slight Tangent:
I believe there'd be more push in the direction of better
generative tools if there existed a standard format for the
description of virtual/planetary worlds. Then the generators would
come, as there'd be a format to follow, which is 90% the challenge
in creating software tools, IMHO. Further, with a standard format
that describes a world, one would have different tools to view
them follow as a matter of course.
Area files remind me of the nearest thing to a world file
standard. There are a lot of tools for them. Neverwinter Nights
comes pretty close in the world of 3D. A real shame VRML never
took traction.
Perhaps a .world file structure RFC isn't too far away these days
from some list member with a sleepless night and a little too much
caffeine. (To the standards body: please don't let any 800lb
gorillas on the committee. ;) )
