Block Designer Options

Why a spawner?

If you don't pick a texture for the first layer you will see a spawner in-game as this technique of adding blocks uses a spawner as a base. Learn more in this video by SimplySarc

Rotation controls

The rotation controls do not change the rotation of your block in-game, they are simply there so you can get a better view of your block.

Updated for 1.18

The generator now works with 1.18. You do not need to update the resourcepack as it has not changed.

New Textures!

4 have been added for layer 1

New Ancient Debris Model, Brown Mushroom Block, Bookshelf Backs, Pumpkin

5 have been added for layers 2 and 3

Bookshelf Books (2 variants), Red Mushroom Spots, Old Emerald Block, Old Chiselled Quartz

UI updates

The UI has been given a fresh new look, throughout the website, that is inspired by the new Minecraft Bedrock UIs.

Updated "Saved Blocks" menu

The "Saved Blocks" menu now shows the block name, block lore and formatting.

Saved blocks are no longer stored in your browser cookies meaning more blocks can be saved.

Editing Menu Changes

The editing menu in the "Saved Blocks" screen has been replaced with a simpler "More Options" menu. In this options menu you can Load, Share or Generate the command for a block you have saved. Click the 3 dots next to a block in the "Saved Blocks" to open the "More Options" menu.

Block Loading

You can now easily load blocks without having to click on a URL. Simply click the "Load Block" button, select "From a Shared Block Link" and paste in the block link.

There is also a random block option where you can generate a truly random block or randomly pick from a list of preset blocks.

Loading from CodeCrafteds Block Designer

You can now load blocks from CodeCrafteds Block Designer. Click the "Load Block" button, select "From CodeCrafted Block Designer" and paste in a block link from their Block Designer. This is still experimental so expect some bugs.

New context menu and tooltips

Right clicking on the Block Preview will show a context menu with some quick options. This makes it easier to switch to a certain layer or save the block, for example. (May not show up on some devices)

Complete rewrite (again)

The Block Designer has been rewritten to use some more modern features and is now overall more stable. This will also enable bigger possibilities for new features.

Info

This Block Designer is intended to be used with Minecraft 1.18 but can be used in any version from 1.14 to the newest versions.

Every block you create can have up to 3 different layers. Each layer can be assigned a colour, texture and enchant glint.

Block Name / Lore

You can edit the block name by clicking C or B until you get to "Block Options" or by right clicking on the Block Preview. Here you can edit the block name and style by giving it a colour, making it bold etc. You can also change the block lore, though it can't be styled.

Generating the Command

To get your block in Minecraft, click "Generate Command", copy it, open Minecraft and paste the command into a command block. Power it and you will be given a new command block that will become your block when placed!
