ObjToSchematic
A visual tool to convert .obj model files into Minecraft Schematics or Litematica.
Usage
You can either download the latest release or build it yourself by following the instructions below.
- Download and install Node.js.
- Run
git clone https://github.com/LucasDower/ObjToSchematic.gitin your command line. - Navigate to
/ObjToSchematic-main. - Run
npm install. - Run
npm start.
Advanced
Block Palettes You can create your own block palettes to fit the build you desire. When you select this palette, the generated structure will only use the blocks defined in your palette. To create a palette, list every block you want to use in /tools/new-palette-blocks. A list of every supported block can be found in /tools/all-supported-blocks. When your list is complete, run npm run palette. If everything is successful, the next time you run the program you'll be able to select your new palette in the 'Block palette' dropdown.
Texture Atlases If you play Minecraft with a resource pack, you will probably want to build your own texture atlas. This way the program will use the same resource pack for its visualisation and more accurate colour-to-block conversions can be made. To do this, run npm run atlas and follow the instructions. If everything is successful, the next time you run the program you'll be able to select your resource pack in the 'Texture atlas' dropdown.

Disclaimer
⚠️ This repo is in development and proper error handling is not currently my priority. Contributions are welcome.
This is an non-commercial unofficial tool that is neither approved, endorsed, associated, nor connected to Mojang Studios. Block textures used are from Minecraft and usage complies with the Mojang Studios Brand And Assets Guidelines.
Contributing
Any contributions are welcome, just fork and submit a PR! Just make sure the code style follows the rulings in the .eslintrc.json and pass the CI build task.
Currently there's not much docs but if you're looking for where to get started, look at app_context.ts and follow _import(), _simplify(), _voxelise(), _palette(), and _export(). If you're looking to add elements to the UI, look at ui/layout.ts, I'm not using a UI framework because I'm a nutter. If you have any questions or need help getting started then feel free to message me.
Adding more file formats to import from and export to would be nice. Adding new default block palettes would be great also.
Debugging
To allow for your favourite debugging tools like breakpoints and call stacks, I've included launch options for debugging in VSCode. Use Ctrl+Shift+D, and run "Debug Main Process" and once the Electron window has initialised, run "Attach to Render Process".
