How do I add the world to Minecraft?

Unzip the download and place the world folder in .minecraft/saves. It then appears in your singleplayer world list.

Is the result a full world or just a build?

It is a complete Java world save built around your schematic, so you can load it directly rather than pasting it into another world.

Which Minecraft version should I use?

Use a version that supports the build's blocks. If the schematic uses newer blocks, load the world in a matching or newer Minecraft version.

Do I need the Litematica mod?

No. The output is a vanilla Java world folder, so you can load it without any mods.

Convert .litematic to Java world

Turn a Litematica build into a standalone Minecraft Java world. Bloxelizer reads the .litematic regions and packages them as a Java world folder you can load in singleplayer.

The .litematic and Java world formats

A .litematic file is a Litematica schematic — regions of Java block states with placement metadata — designed to be pasted into an existing world. A Minecraft Java world is a save folder with region (.mca) files and a level.dat. The conversion writes your Litematica build into a fresh Java world folder, delivered as a .zip, so it loads as its own singleplayer save instead of a schematic you have to place.

How to convert .litematic to Java world

Upload your .litematic file in the converter below.

Review the build in the 3D or layer preview.

Keep the Java world format selected and download the .zip, then unzip it into your saves folder.

When to use this conversion

Use this route to explore a Litematica build as its own Java world without pasting it into an existing save or running the Litematica mod.

Compatibility notes

Load the world in a Minecraft version that recognizes the build's blocks. The build is placed in a generated world; blocks from newer versions may need a matching client.
