Use Schematics with Amulet Editor
This document will go through how to use Amulet Editor to work with Minecraft world files.
Download Amulet
- Go to AmuletMC and download the program for your operating system.
Open the World
- Open the program once installed.
- Click on Open World and select the world you want to modify, it will automatically show the worlds installed in the
%APPDATA%/.minecraft/saves/directory. - If you want to modify or make a schematic of a world present on your server, you will have to download the entire world folder. The folders for the different dimensions are as follows:
world: The overworldworld_nether: The netherworld_the_end: The end
Open the World
- If you have the world you want to modify or make a schematic of a world that already exists on your own device in single player mode, click on the Java dropdown. This will expand and show you all the currently installed worlds on your device, which you can then click on to open.
- If your world was downloaded via SFTP due to it not being a single player world, simply click on Open other world and select the folder for the world that you wish to edit.
Open 3D Editor
- Once a world is open, click on the 3D Editor tab, which is where all the edits occur.
Navigation
Once the world is open, you can move around using the following keys:
- W A S D: Normal up left down right movement
- Space: Fly up
- Shift: Fly down
- Right click + drag: Moves the view to look into other directions
- Scroll wheel: Modified the speed at which the player moves with WASD in “bps” (blocks per second) which can be seen on the top right information bar
- If you opened a single player world, which will usually contain all dimensions in one folder. You can change dimensions by clicking on the dimensions selector next to the blocks per second display.
Selection
- Placing the mouse over blocks will highlight them, meaning they are ready for selection.
- If you would like to select an “air” block, you can hold the right click button which will move the selection box to a small distance in front of you, making it possible to select air.
Draw a Box
- Once you know the starting point of the box selection, left click, then move to the second point of the box and left click again to confirm the selection. This will create a visible square that can be edited.
- If you would like to change the size of one face of the rectangle, simply put your mouse over a square, which will turn it blue; from there, click and drag to the desired size.
Export the Selection
- Once you are satisfied with the selection, swap to the “export” tab at the bottom of the screen.
- From there, click on “export” and save the resulting .construction file somewhere on your device.
Import the Construction
- To import a
.constructionfile (or any supported file by amulet such as.schematicfiles) swap to the import tab and click on 1 Import File. This will open a file explorer where you can select the file to import. - This will create a “ghost” version of the build that will move around with the cursor, which gives you the ability to choose where you want to place it. It also gives additional options such as scale, rotation, if you want to flip it directionally, whether liquids or air should be pasted or not.
- Left click once you are satisfied with the position of the schematic (remember that you can hold right click to avoid it going into things) and finally click on the 2 Confirm button to confirm the placement.
Save the Changes
- To save the changes, click on the save button at the top right of the screen, which will permanently apply the changes.
