The question does not make much sense. What "steps" do you expect? As always, a first step, you need to learn the algorithm; as a next step, you should plan your further steps — all by yourself, depending on your application your ultimate goals and requirements which you did not share with us. We also have no idea what do you think is difficult. We have no idea what do you want to have on input, what do you want to do with your rendered surface.

The work is not easy; you should study the literature, plan development thoroughly. Any further detail is not something you could acquire from a quick answer, not matter what it might describe.

I agree. This is no place to ask home work questions or "Developer for hire" questions.

Hello Mobilat. This is not to discourage you. Sorry if you felt like that. But while you ask question you have to refine your question. Else people cannot help you. Can you answer my question below?
Hey All, I want to build a rocket, what are the steps required?
Learning is a continuous and tedious process. You should not let your ego come in way.

Best answer - uses WPF instead of OpenGL but shows basic principles and actual code

While I applaud your urge to help people, it's a good idea to stick to new questions, rather than 8 year old ones. After that amount of time, it's unlikely that the original poster is at all interested in the problem any more!
Answering old questions can be seen as rep-point hunting, which is a form of site abuse. The more trigger happy amongst us will start the process of banning you from the site if you aren't careful. Stick to new questions and you'll be fine.

The response to posts here are far too nasty for people just trying to get information. Tone it down and be civil. A date stamp of “Posted 1-Jan-12 23:23pm” is not clear to me as far as the year. Since the 2000 date computer crisis - most dates use four digit years.

OriginalGriff's comment was far from nasty - it was very civil. He was offering some perfectly valid suggestions for avoiding reports from the more trigger-happy members of this community. He is unlikely to have seen your response however, as you didn't use the "Reply" link to his comment

“Trigger-happy” —- exactly.

Here are the reference:
1. Wikipedia Intro[^]
2. Intro to Marching cubes[^]
3. Marching Cube Class notes.[^]
4. Visualization Library is a Graphics Library, it has a marching cube introduction. This is a reference if you want a ready made library solution.[^]
