    The Schematic exporter is here!!!
    bryanvalc.gumroad.com/l/BlockBlenderToSchem
    Bryan Valdez made a .schem exporter that works for BlockBlender, so now you can bring your creations right into Minecraft.
    It is a third-party addon made by Bryan Valdez. I do not control the price. I have tested it with Litematica and it worked great for me, but I know it is a work in progress, so please be patient and kind.

      And with concrete powder it's a large amount of blocks you'd have to manually toggle otherwise.

    @SuperMakeSomething Před rokem +3

    Really cool add-in! Thank you for sharing this! One quick note -- based on how human color perception works, you may get closer "visual" matches to the color on the base object if you operate in HSV instead of RGB color space. It's a subtle difference, but makes a big differences for complex models with few colors, which I stumbled upon when writing up a paint-by-numbers drawing generator. Cheers!

    • @bradenfleming9354
      @bradenfleming9354 Před rokem

      Even better, I suggest a model using the CIELab space. This is 5% more accurate than HSV though it may cause a substantial increase in calculation time. It may also be more difficult to correctly compare colors of this space though.

    I have never seen F3 walk mode in blender, that is a great tool that will use in the future

    I used BlockBlender to build my castle in hardcore Minecraft, it was useful, because I knew what blocks I will need. Thanks for the tool

    I wish I could wrap my head around how these node groups were dreamed up 😳 Im definitely trying this for VFX videos/animations. Absolutely insane. I love it.
