It stands for "Tarik Art Engine" (I used my real name, yes). It's a basic art generator for those guys who are obsessed with generating bunch of random art, aka NFTs based on assets (images) you provide. None-programmers will struggle a bit trying to run this program, just follow the instructions, and you should be good to go.
- Installation
You have to download NodeJS to you machine to run this software Clone the repository using git, or download if you are a psycho. Then, go to the downloaded folder and type the 3rd cmd which will install all the necessary dependecies.
git clone https://github.com/Txreq/tae-tool
cd ./tae-tool
npm install
-
Setup you assets
-
postioning
First of all, you got to know the program won't position the assets for you magically, thus you have to do it your self.
-
naming
To make the software regonize the image value and trait please name it that way:
NOTE: Just keep the rarity right before the image extention
[value]_[rarity].png - e.g: myValue_myRarity.png
- add you custom rarities
Of course your can add your own rarities and to do that head up to./configs/main.json
there you could find add rarities I have already added, delete them if you want and add yours
"rarities": [ { "key": "myRariy", "rate": { "up": 100, "down": 0 } } ]
If you skiped all your math classes you will screw with the
rate
, take a look to this diagram to get an idea what the heck is theup
&down
values. -
To get a better understanding how in world this piece of software runs, take a look on the assets
folder and configs/main.json
, or contact me
- Ready to go!
If everything has been set, you can run it with this command
node .
# or
node index.js
DONT EVER TRY TO GENERATE A HIGH AMOUNT OF ART WITH THIS PROGRAM IN LOCAL YOUR MACHINE.
I highly suggest for those pyschos who generates up to 1k, 10k, 100k images to do all what I have been said in a hosted virtual machine which has a good CPU and RAM.
