ARCHITECTA

Architecta

Visual building and terrain editing for Minecraft Forge

Architecta brings brushes, terrain editing, and schematic workflows into your Minecraft world. Shape landscapes, create paths, place grown trees, and transform builds through a transparent interface that keeps your surroundings visible.

Features

• Continuous brushes: Hold right-click to build, erase, paint, or smooth, with adjustable brush size and smoothing strength.

• Terrain tools: Sculpt landscapes, paint biomes, and naturalize selected areas with configurable depth.

• Path Creator: Draw paths across curves and slopes using a randomized mixture of up to eight selected materials.

• Tree Creator: Quickly place grown trees with selectable species, wood types, sizes, and seeds.

• Copy and paste: Select with Pos1 and Pos2, preview placement, rotate, mirror, and replace materials before pasting.

• Schematic workflows: Import and export supported NBT and Sponge schematics. Compatible import can replace missing blocks with stone and report adaptations.

• Create integration: Export NBT schematics for Schematicannon and copy supported machines with their configuration and inventory data.

• Editing controls: Undo, redo, selection masks, saved presets, and a clipboard library.

• Flexible interface: Transparent purple panels, configurable shortcuts, and English/Spanish language switching.

Getting started

• Right Shift: Open the main editor.

• Right Control: Activate direct copy/paste with an empty main hand.

• Ctrl + P: Open materials, replacements, library, and schematic files.

• Ctrl + Z / Ctrl + Y: Undo and redo.

• Ctrl + D: Clear the selection and its filters.

Move while the editor is open, drag with the left mouse button to look around, and hold right-click to use continuous brushes.

Requirements

Minecraft 1.20.1 · Forge 47.4.10 · Java 17

Install the same Architecta version on the client and server. World editing requires Creative mode and operator-level permissions. Survival players can use visual blueprints for manual construction.

Create is optional; integration has been tested with Create 6.0.8. Machine support covers selected types, and contraptions are copied as static structures.

Current release: Release Candidate. Back up your world before large edits. Other Minecraft versions and universal modpack compatibility are not supported by this release.
