Convert anything to Minecraft Blocks with BlockBlender 1.4

BlockBlender 1.4 has some new features like Minecraft 1.20 blocks, an installable Blender addon, and it works seamlessly with a schematic exporter and texture baking addon. Plus I give some examples of things you can build with it.

    I've used vowel converters in the past for making minecraft builds from 3d files. I don't think they're quite suitable for that usecase, since to get a good amount of detail requires the buildings to be scaled too much -- and if you don't the buildings don't look great. For key megastructures though they are really good e.g. if you wanted to make the world from Elden Ring, converting the Erd tree to a blocky format would work well, but then for individual buildings that arnt massive a good minecraft player will always produce much better results making use if half slabs, stairs, and weird things like anvils, extinguished camp fires, and other non conventional blocks to give details.

It would be awesome if you could generate entire dungeons randomly just with the effect of noise; with secret rooms and lurking mobs, just like in isekai RPGs and animes. Anyway, great project, I'll test it in the near future.
