Processing Checklist

When downloading and getting posted Processing applets to run, here is a list of items to check if it is not running properly.

• Download all files including font files. Make sure the base filename of the main program matches the folder name. For example, in project 2 the main source file is main.pde. Place all the project files under a folder "cs3451P2" and rename "main.pde" into "cs3451P2.pde".
• Place data files including the font file(s) in a "data" subfolder under the base folder, e.g. under "cs3451P2/data/".
• If the font file doesn't exist, create it in processing to match the one specified in the code. For example, the loadFont() function call "PFont font = loadFont("ArialMT-24.vlw");" requires ArialMT-24.vlw. To create this, goto Tools, Create Font..., select the font ArialMT, change the font size to 24, and click OK.

If you haven't already, create a personal project page (PPP). We suggest you place this in a subdirectory in your prism webspace. If you have not previously created one, see the prism FAQ page for instructions on creating a new prism page http://faq.oit.gatech.edu/0275.html.Create a personal project page (PPP) in a subdirectory, e.g. http://www.prism.gatech.edu/~userid/cs3451/. Use this page to link to all of your project submissions. While only one submission per group is required, every student should have their own PPP (since there will be different groups and individual assignments). Once you have created your PPP, send a link to it via email to Justin (jang AT cc) and also cc Jarek (jarek AT cc).

Instructions for submitting projects:

Send an email containing the link to the project page to {jang AT cc} and {sidjoshi AT cc}, and also cc Jarek {jarek AT cc}. The email subject line should begin with "CS3451" and contain the project number (and phase). For example, the subject line for project 1 phase 1 could be "CS3451 project 1 phase 1".
