Turning images into 2-D video game levels
Go to the Main directory and run:
python Main_Single.py <input.png> <out_dir>
For example,
python Main_Single.py dalle1.png dalle1_test
Quick manual setup of server (Not necessary to run the code. Skip ahead to run from command line)
npm run build
tmux new -s python-server
<goto /server>
python3 flask-server.py
<press ctrl-b-d>
tmux new -s http-server
<goto /dist>
http-server -c-1 -p 80
<press ctrl-b-d>
(These are the original instructions. See my additional notes below)
git clone git@github.com:mattgallivan/levels.git
cd levels
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
From Jacob: I specifically used Python 3.7.11 (I made an Anaconda environment). The original requirements file tries to use a version of Pytorch that is no longer availble. Therefore, after the standard pip-install, you will need to install the old version of Pytorch using this command:
pip install torch==1.7.0+cpu torchvision==0.8.1+cpu torchaudio===0.7.0 -f https://download.pytorch.org/whl/torch_stable.html
This is specifically the CPU version (not CUDA).
Basic example that creates a level based on a poor drawing. However, if does not apply any kind of repair, and thus seems to not produce a great output.
python levels/levels.py eugene-bad-drawing.png super-mario-bros-simplified/gameMetadata.json random nothing 16 11
usage: levels.py [-h] [-og OUTPUT_GEN] [-or OUTPUT_REP] image game generator repair width height
positional arguments:
image Filename of the input RGB image in 'data/imgs/'
game Filename of the game JSON found in 'data/games/'
generator The name of the generator function
repair The name of the repair function
width Width of the output level
height Height of the output level
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-og OUTPUT_GEN, --output_gen OUTPUT_GEN
Filename for generator .txt output
-or OUTPUT_REP, --output_rep OUTPUT_REP
Filename for generator + repair .txt output
Add a function inside generators.py with the following format:
def generator_name_here(image, game, width, height):
...
where image is a PIL image of the input, game is the game's JSON file, and width and height are the desired width and height of the output level.
Add a function inside repair.py with the following format:
def repair_name_here(level, game, width, height):
# ...
where level is a 2D matrix of the input level and game is the game's JSON file.
pip install library_name
pip freeze > requirements.txt
