Generator files are located in the "generators" folder.
Generator files are .jar files which contain the code, schematics and settings files for a specific generator.
They can be edited using WinRAR or similar program.
First, it is recommended to make a copy of a generator (e.g. "Default.jar") in the "generators" folder and rename it to something like "My Generator.jar".
Then, copy any files you want to modify in the generator .jar. For example, you could make a copy of a settings file to change to your liking. Or, you could create new schematics files of your own buildings. Lastly, you can edit the thumbnail image that is in the jar.
Replace the files in the .jar with your new settings files or schematics. You can paste them using CTRL + V right in WinRAR and it will add them to the jar.
Run the HGMG.jar and you should now see a new generator "My Generator" (or whatever you renamed it) in the list of generators to choose from.
Note, this is for advanced users only with a working knowledge of Java.
Again, this is not supported fully but if you know Java and look at the source code for the generator, you can simply replace my code in the "WorldGenerator" class with your own for a custom generator.

I can't open the generators!
Please be more specific. What exactly is the problem you are having? Also, are you using a Mac or PC?
I have a blank window with "Choose a generator". That's all :/
Win7 64bits, Java 6.
Did you extract the .zip folder?
im having the same problem where do i extract to? I may sound like a total noob right now
You can extract the files anywhere you want, just make sure you keep the HGMG.jar and generators folder together in the same folder.
what does it mean when it says: Copy the configurations file for your plugin and replace the file in your server's plugins folder.
You have to copy the files in the configs folder into your Bukkit server so the plugin you are using knows where to put players on the map. So copy the .yml files in whatever folder corresponds to the plugin you are using into the folder of your Bukkit server for that plugin.
can you make a video tourorial
Check the main page for a link.
can you make a swamp generator?
or just more biome generators. or make a bunch of buildings and then randomize them to make a city/town map. my point is can you make more generators with cool builds/biomes. thank you for your consideration. :D
I'm working on a city generator now, it could be a while before it's done though.
