Sculptory

Sculptory is an open-source world editor for Minecraft builders, for Fabric and NeoForge 1.21.1. Press B and the game turns into an editor: floating windows, a tool palette, brushes that shape terrain, selections you can fill, copy, turn and stack, schematics, a shared library, scatter, and one undo history for all of it. It works in singleplayer and on servers, where the server decides who may edit.

Beta: the main tools are done, and what you save carries over when you update on the same Minecraft version: editor settings, window layouts, keys, presets, undo history and the library. It hasn’t been played by many people yet, so keep backups of worlds you care about. See Updating Sculptory.

Features

• Editor mode: movable windows, a menu bar, Ctrl+K to find any command, F1 for every key, every key rebindable.
• Selections: boxes, spheres, cylinders, cones, pyramids, magic select, brush and lasso. Fill, Replace, Erase, Hollow, Walls, Overlay, Naturalize and Update blocks, up to millions of blocks, with progress and cancel.
• Masks on every edit: by block or tag, on top of, under, next to, slope, height, inside the selection, random.
• Terrain brushes: Raise, Lower, Smooth, Flatten, Paint and Palette Paint up to radius 32, on any surface, with falloff and symmetry. Weather brush: erode, fill in, roughen, melt. Heightmap brush: stamp or paint terrain from grayscale pictures, up to radius 128.
• Shape brush: spheres, cylinders, cones, cubes and pyramids by click or drag, or along lines and curves.
• Paste, move and stack with rotation by any angle around any axis, flip and upside-down flip, ghost previews, entities included.
• Biomes: paint them with a brush or fill the selection, as columns or in 3D; they travel with copy and .schem.
• Schematics: .schem (WorldEdit-compatible), .litematic and structure .nbt, import and export.
• Library: the server’s shared schematics and palettes, with per-asset access.
• Scatter: vanilla trees and features, schematics, rocks and plants over an area, previewed before you commit.
• Generate: roads, roofs, lines, sweeps and stamps along points you click, terrain from a heightmap, and Smart Surface, a terrain sheet through your points.
• Extrude faces straight, along a path or to a point. Fluid flood and drain.
• Tinker: change a block’s properties, a sign’s text or an entity in place.
• Building by hand is in the history: in Creative, every block you place or break, and every item frame, painting and armor stand, is one undo step from the first start. Hold G for builder mode’s other powers (long reach, keep shape, mirror and more). Jump with J.
• History: one Ctrl+Z history for every tool, a History window, saved with the world.
• Servers: Fabric, NeoForge and Paper (the Sculptory for Paper plugin, a separate Bukkit Plugins project); permission nodes per tool (sculptory.*, LuckPerms works), size and rate limits, job queues.
• Help: an in-game tutorial and the whole wiki in game.

Install

• Fabric: Minecraft 1.21.1, Fabric Loader 0.16.14+ and Fabric API 0.116.4+1.21.1; put Sculptory and Fabric API in mods.
• NeoForge: Minecraft 1.21.1, NeoForge 21.1.218+; put Sculptory in mods, nothing else.
• Servers: the same Sculptory build on the server and on every client that edits. A Fabric client can edit on a NeoForge server and the other way round. On a Paper server, install the Paper plugin and the mod on the clients. Operators may edit by default; a permissions mod can decide per player or group.
