Phantom Shapes Mod

The Phantom Shapes Mod for Minecraft introduces a tool for previewing 3D shapes.
With this mod, building 3D shapes
becomes an ease, thanks to the inclusion of diverse shapes like cubes, spheres, cylinders, or toruses.

Further development and version bumps currently halted due to my lack of free time and many backend changes made by Mojang, requiring further research and multiple rewrites.

If you have any problems or have an idea for a new feature, make an issue on Github.

Features

Shape Variety

  • Cubes
  • Spheres
  • Cylinders
  • Arches
  • Polygons

Rotating Shapes

Shapes can be rotated in any direction, allowing players to create unique structures with ease.
For example, you can rotate a cylinder by 90 degrees in the X axis to create a tunnel.

Intuitive Interface

  • A user-friendly interface allows players to easily navigate through the different shape options.
  • Convenient controls make shaping and resizing structures a breeze, giving players complete control over their shapes.
  • Scrollable inputs allow for precise property adjustments. Hold shift or control to change the value by 10 or 100
    respectively.
  • Options to change the color and transparency of the shapes or even the size of the blocks themselves.

Frequently Asked Questions

PhantomShapes server crashes on startup – what to do?

Server lagging with PhantomShapes – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if PhantomShapes consumes the most tick time.
