  This is a 2D implementation of the TVCG paper Fast Animation of Lightning Using An Adaptive Mesh. It includes both the simulation and rendering components described in that paper. In particular, a quadtree conjugate gradient Poisson solver is included.

Several pieces of software are used in this project that the respective authors were kind enough to make freely available:

FFTW, OpenEXR, GLVU, Antimony, Mersenne twister

You must have FFTW and OpenEXR installed to compile the code.
