Sunflow

Introduction

Sunflow is a rendering system written entirely in Java.

Installation

Sunflow offers only a startscript which has to be customized by the user (who has to unpack and setup the system himself, too). Due to these circumstances, I decided to create installers for various plattforms:

Debian/Ubuntu Linux

Starting with Debian lenny and Ubuntu 8.04 ("hardy"), you can install Sunflow by your preferred installation mechanism (Adept, Synaptic, apt-get, aptitute).

Microsoft Windows

Installing Sunflow on Windows
To install Sunflow on Microsoft Windows, download the installer, double-click on the downloaded file and follow the installation dialog. To start Sunflow (assuming you did not change the proposed features), select Sunflow in Start menu -> (All) Programs. If this fails or Sunflow displays a warning that you are not running the server VM, you probably need to install the Sun JDK. The installer ships with an improved start script (Download with right-click -> save as or similar).
