Build Mod is a Minecraft utility designed to simplify large-scale building, blueprint sharing, and image generation. Whether you want to automate construction, recreate existing builds, or generate massive pixel art, Builder Mod provides a complete toolkit for creators.
Use Minecraft dot or some other website to convert a picture into csv, I will also upload the picture to rgb.csv on my github soon
Blueprints are stored as CSV files and can be built directly in-game using commands.
Normal Build – Instantly constructs the blueprint.
Builder Bot – A builder entity automatically constructs the blueprint block-by-block, making it appear as though a player is building it.
Scaffold Mode – Generates temporary guide blocks so players can manually build the structure themselves while following a visual blueprint.
These modes are available for both 2D and 3D blueprints.
Builder Mod can scan existing Minecraft builds and convert them into reusable blueprints.
Select two corners of a build.
Export the selected area.
The mod scans every block and stores the complete BlockState.
A new blueprint folder is created containing:
Metadata
Individual CSV files for each layer
These blueprint folders can be shared with other players.
Import any exported blueprint back into Minecraft using dedicated import commands.
Imported blueprints support:
Normal Build
Builder Bot
Scaffold Mode
allowing structures to be recreated exactly as they were originally built.
Canvas Builder allows images to be recreated in Minecraft using custom RGB Canvas Blocks.
Workflow:
Convert an image using the included Image → RGB CSV converter.
Place the generated CSV inside the Canvas folder.
Use the Canvas build command.
The mod recreates the image using RGB Canvas Blocks.
Unlike traditional block palettes, Canvas Blocks store their own RGB values, allowing images to reproduce millions of colors with far greater accuracy.
The Canvas system also includes a custom rendering/LOD system designed to efficiently display extremely large artworks.
Builder Mod includes commands for:
Building blueprints
Builder Bot mode
Scaffold mode
Canvas builds
Blueprint position selection
Blueprint export
Blueprint import
Commands are designed to remain separate between the traditional Builder system and the Blueprint system to keep workflows clean and intuitive.
Each exported blueprint is stored inside its own folder.
Example:
blueprints/
└── Castle/
├── metadata.json
└── layers/
├── layer000.csv
├── layer001.csv
├── layer002.csv
└── ...
Each layer stores the complete BlockState for every block, preserving orientation, properties, and block variants for accurate reconstruction.

Builder Mod is designed for builders, content creators, and survival players who want to automate repetitive construction while still supporting manual building, blueprint sharing, and large-scale creative projects.
