HeatonVoxel

NuGet .NET tests .NET coverage License

Read and edit Minecraft Java Edition worlds from .NET and Unity.

Open a save, read any block, change it, and write the world back the way the game would have made it: a door placed as two halves, a fence joined to its neighbors, a stair set in water waterlogged. Move builds in and out as WorldEdit .schem, Litematica .litematic and vanilla structure files, change the game mode, difficulty, weather and time of day, and undo an edit. Everything you didn't touch is written back byte for byte, and saving refuses while Minecraft has the world open. It has no package dependencies and targets netstandard2.1, so Unity can use it directly.

It is the C# twin of the Python heaton-voxel library. One shared test corpus holds them to the same answers, so a save edited in either comes out identical, byte for byte.

using System;
using HeatonVoxel.World;

var save = MinecraftSave.Load("/path/to/saves/MyWorld");

var (px, _, pz) = save.PlayerPosition();
int x = (int)Math.Floor(px), z = (int)Math.Floor(pz);
int ground = save.SurfaceY(x, z) ?? throw new InvalidOperationException("no ground here");
Console.WriteLine(save.GetBlock(x, ground, z));          // e.g. minecraft:grass_block[snowy=false]

// Placed as the game places an item: both halves, connections, waterlogging.
save.PlaceBlock(x, ground + 1, z, "minecraft:oak_fence");
save.ResetLighting((x, ground, z), (x, ground + 1, z));
save.RebuildHeightmaps((x, ground, z), (x, ground + 1, z));

save.Save();   // refuses while Minecraft has the world open

Scope. It reads and writes the current chunk format (Minecraft 1.18 and later), reads chunks saved by 1.13 to 1.17.1 but refuses to write them, and refuses anything older with an error that says why. It reads Java Edition worlds only: Bedrock worlds are a different format.
