About this project

What does Automatic chiselling add?

This mod allows you to automatically hollow out a shape specified by a .vox file using a chisel.

Usage Algorithm:

  1. Find a ready-made model in .vox format on the internet, or convert any .obj model to .vox format using this website.
  2. Place the ready .vox file into the WorldEdit folder.
  3. Enter the game world and type the command .vox load [filename without extension].
  4. Move to the position where you want to place the model, select the block with your view that will be central, and execute the command .vox selpos. You will see a highlighted red zone (dimensions) and a green zone (the area where blocks for chiseling need to be placed). NOTE: All blocks in the red zone that are not in the green zone will be destroyed.
  5. Fill the green zone with blocks. Remember that blocks like sand and gravel are unstable and may collapse. If you want to make a model from such materials, it is recommended to convert regular blocks to chiseled blocks beforehand. This is not necessary when using stable materials.
  6. Execute the command .vox start while holding a chisel in your hand. The carving process will begin; do not remove the chisel from your active hand.
  7. Wait...
  8. Wait...
  9. .....
  10. Wait...
  11. Hooray, your model is ready!

The mod also has other commands, which you can learn about in the manual.

Remember that your gameplay should not interfere with other players and game servers as a whole!

Known issues:

- In survival mode, the mod does not check for the presence of a hammer in the off-hand, causing the chiseling process to start but not execute correctly (iterations are skipped, resulting in a flawed model).
