Talecraft

Import your Minecraft builds into Hytale!

Experimental: This mod is still in early development. Some features may be incomplete or change in future versions. Feedback and bug reports are welcome!

This mod is a passion project built in my spare time. If you'd like to help, consider supporting the project.

Talecraft is a mod that allows you to import Minecraft schematics directly into your Hytale world. Whether you have massive builds from Minecraft that you want to bring over, or you want to use the thousands of schematics available online, Talecraft makes it easy.

Features

Minecraft Schematic Support: Import both legacy MCEdit .schematic files and modern WorldEdit/Sponge .schem files

Block Mapping: Automatically converts Minecraft blocks to their Hytale equivalents

Block Properties: Preserves block orientation, rotation, and state (stairs facing, slab type, log axis, etc.)

Download Schematics: Download schematics directly from URLs without leaving the game

Undo System: Made a mistake? Undo your paste and restore the original terrain

Large Build Support: Handles schematics with thousands of blocks efficiently

Installation

Download the latest Talecraft-X.X.X.jar from the releases

Place the JAR file in your Hytale server's mods folder

Start/restart your server

Schematics go in the plugins/Talecraft/schematics/ folder

Commands

Command Description Usage

/schematic list Lists all available schematics in your schematics folder /schematic list

/schematic paste <filename> Pastes a schematic at your current position /schematic paste castle.schem

/schematic download <url> [filename] Downloads a schematic from a URL /schematic download https://example.com/build.schem

/schematic undo Undoes your last schematic paste, restoring original blocks /schematic undo

Alias: All commands also work with /schem (e.g., /schem list, /schem paste)

Command Details

/schematic list

Displays all schematic files (.schematic and .schem) found in your schematics folder. Use this to see what builds you have available.

/schematic paste <filename\>

Pastes the specified schematic at your current position. The schematic's origin point will be placed at your feet.

Example:

/schematic paste medieval_house.schem After pasting, you'll see:

How many blocks were successfully placed

How many blocks were skipped (unmapped Minecraft blocks)

A reminder that you can use /schem undo to rollback

/schematic download <url\> [filename]

Downloads a schematic file from the internet and saves it to your schematics folder.

Examples:

/schematic download https://example.com/castle.schem /schematic download https://example.com/build.schem my_castle.schem

If no filename is provided, the original filename from the URL is used

The file must be a valid .schematic or .schem file

Validates the downloaded file before saving

/schematic undo

Restores the terrain to its state before your last paste. Each player has their own undo history, and multiple undos are supported.

Notes:

You must be in the same world where the paste occurred

Undo history is per-player and per-session (cleared on server restart)

Supported File Formats

Format Extension Description

Sponge Schematic .schem Modern format used by WorldEdit, Litematica, and other tools. Supports all modern Minecraft blocks.

Legacy Schematic .schematic Classic MCEdit format. Limited to pre-1.13 block IDs (0-255).

Recommendation: Use .schem files when possible as they have better block support and preserve more block properties.

Block Mapping

Talecraft automatically maps Minecraft blocks to Hytale equivalents. The mapping preserves:

Block orientation: Stairs facing direction, log axis, etc.

Block variants: Wool colors, wood types, stone variants

Block states: Slab position (top/bottom), trapdoor state, etc.

Some Minecraft-specific blocks may not have direct Hytale equivalents and will be skipped during paste. The command output will show you which blocks couldn't be mapped.

The mod is really early stages and I'm working on support more blocks and mobs in the future so stay tune and if you can help founding, feel free support the project.

Troubleshooting

"Schematic not found"

Make sure the file is in plugins/Talecraft/schematics/

Check the filename spelling (case-sensitive)

Use /schematic list to see available files

"No parser available"

The file may be corrupted or in an unsupported format

Try re-exporting from WorldEdit/Litematica

Many blocks skipped

Some Minecraft blocks don't have Hytale equivalents yet

Legacy .schematic files have limited block support

Try using a modern .schem file instead
