icon Mapart Helper

Note: The mod is still quite new and needs more testing and polishing. If you run into any bugs or rough edges, please report them on the Issues page — your feedback will be a huge help.

This mod aims to make working with maparts as convenient and enjoyable as possible. It provides a user-friendly interface for generating maparts from images. By default, you can open the screen with the Y key (This can be changed at the setting).

The mod generates palette directly from the client, giving you a complete list of blocks available for each specific color.

It also includes other map-related features, such as saving maps from the world as PNG files or displaying beams at the starting coordinates of map areas.

Commands

The following commands can be used everywhere, including servers:

  • /mart beams - Toggles displaying the beams at the map areas' start points
  • /mart save frame [filename] - Saves the map's image you are looking at to the saved_maps folder
  • /mart save hand [filename] - Saves the map's image you are looking at to the saved_maps folder
  • /mart save selection [filename] - Saves the image from the selection area to the saved_maps folder
  • /mart palette regenerate - Regenerates blocks palette
  • /mart palette update - Updates palette and presets from config files

There are also several miscellaneous singleplayer-only commands, almost for debugging or for some unique cases:

  • /mart-creative palette give-map-palette - Replaces an image of the holding filled map with the image of the complete palette
  • /mart-creative palette place <height> - Places all blocks from the generated blocks palette into the world from the current map area's starting coordinates and at the given y-coordinate

Rebane's MapartCraft

As someone who builds maparts in survival, I have always used this great website for that purpose. So, of course, the main idea for this mod was inspired by MapartCraft. As a novice modder, I decided to create a similar tool, but integrated directly into the game.

Mapart Helper is an alternative that provides in-game GUI for the same purposes, with some differences and its own features.

MapartCraft and Mapart Helper use different programming languages, algorithms, and logic. For this reason, the results may and will differ, especially when it comes to image preprocessing. Please keep this in mind if you want to use both tools for the same mapart.
