[ASSETS]: Fix hardcoded relative asset paths for GitHub Pages - Updated texture paths in SeveranceMaterials.js and AssetLoader.js from './assets/' to '/assets/' - All asset paths now use absolute paths that work correctly with Vite base path configuration - Added deployment test script to verify fixes - Rebuilt project with corrected asset paths
