The Georg Project provides procedurally generated assets for use in JMonkeyEngine applications.

It contains 3 subprojects:

1. FuzeCreekTextures: generate textures for the FuzeCreek project
2. HeartTextures: generate textures for the Heart project
3. MavTextures: generate textures for the More Advanced Vehicles project

Complete source code (in Java) is provided under a 3-clause BSD license.

How to build Georg from source

1. Install a Java Development Kit (JDK), if you don't already have one.
2. Download and extract the Georg source code from GitHub:

• using Git:
  • git clone https://github.com/stephengold/Georg.git
  • cd Georg

3. Point the JAVA_HOME environment variable to your JDK installation: (In other words, set it to the path of a directory/folder containing a "bin" that contains a Java executable. That path might look something like "C:\Program Files\Eclipse Adoptium\jdk-17.0.3.7-hotspot" or "/usr/lib/jvm/java-17-openjdk-amd64/" or "/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/zulu-17.jdk/Contents/Home" .)

• using Bash or Zsh: export JAVA_HOME=" path to installation "
• using Fish: set -g JAVA_HOME " path to installation "
• using Windows Command Prompt: set JAVA_HOME=" path to installation "
• using PowerShell: $env:JAVA_HOME = ' path to installation '

4. Run the Gradle wrapper:

• using Bash or Fish or PowerShell or Zsh: ./gradlew textures
• using Windows Command Prompt: .\gradlew textures

After a successful build, texture assets will be found in FuzeCreekTextures/build, HeartTextures/build, and MavTextures/build.

Conventions

The source code is compatible with JDK 7.

Acknowledgments

Like most projects, the Georg Project builds on the work of many who have gone before. I therefore acknowledge the creators of (and contributors to) the following software:

• the Firefox web browser
• the Git revision-control system and GitK commit viewer
• the GitKraken client
• the Gradle build tool
• the ImgScalr Library
• the Java compiler, standard doclet, and virtual machine
• jMonkeyEngine and the jME3 Software Development Kit
• the Linux Mint operating system
• LWJGL, the Lightweight Java Game Library
• the Markdown document-conversion tool
• the NetBeans integrated development environment

I am grateful to Github and Imgur for providing free hosting for this project and many other open-source projects.

I'm also grateful to my dear Holly, for keeping me sane.
