Ok I hope you can help me when I try to run the .bat file I get this error message as a pop up "windows cannot find 'javaw'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again." when I just run the .jar file it run out of memory but I know that's just because the schematic is to large please help.
Yeah, that happens. Seldomly, but it does. What that means is that for one reason or another, you do not have a java forwarder in your system32 directory and/or a butchered path system variable.
I'll spare you the explanation of what that means.

Just open the bat file in notepad and replace javaw in it with the full path to the javaw executable.
So, for example, you would replace
start javaw -Xms256m[...]
with something like
start C:\Programs\Java\Jre6\bin\javaw.exe -Xms256m[...]

(I can't put in the path myself as it can be a different one on every computer)

@Klaue thanks for the help but it still does not work let me explain why my path is different than the norm. Th PC used to be Win XP before I upgraded to Win 7 so almost all my files including JAVA are in Program Files (86) instead of the normal one so the path would be start "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\javaw.exe" but after I added that in so it was "start C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\javaw.exe -Xms256m -Xmx512m -jar Schematic2Blueprint.jar" the error message has changed to "Windows cannot find 'C:/Program'.Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again." sorry it's most likely me doing something wrong T_T

ah, I forgot that it's "program files" and not "programs" on english pcs. it's the space that confuses windows. just change
start C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\javaw.exe -Xms256m -Xmx512m -jar Schematic2Blueprint.jar
to
start "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\javaw.exe" -Xms256m -Xmx512m -jar Schematic2Blueprint.jar

Ok sorry for bothering you so much but at least this will help anyone else having the same problem :( I replaced the path with start "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\javaw.exe" -Xms256m -Xmx512m -jar Schematic2Blueprint.jar like you said to and now here is the new error message I got "Windows cannot find '-Xms256m'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again." thanks for all the help you've been giving me so far :)

What should my Java memory be to load a very large schematic, like, oh say:

@jackzilla: I dunno, try it out. you can also just put in the most memory you have aviable. As this thing is 300 blocks in heigh (according to the description), you can't build it anyway as MCs world is only 127 blocks high

Ok sorry for bothering you so much but at least this will help anyone else having the same problem :( I replaced the path with start "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\javaw.exe" -Xms256m -Xmx512m -jar Schematic2Blueprint.jar like you said to and now here is the new error message I got "Windows cannot find '-Xms256m'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again." thanks for all the help you've been giving me so far :)
I checked it on a windows machine, and that was a silly one. the start command, used to start a program in the background, takes the first argument as the title of the command window it should create if and only if it's in quotes. so while encapsulating a path in quotes is right, it caused the start program to take it as the title and it wanted to take the next one, in this case -Xms256m, as the program path

The solution is easy, provide an empty dummy title
start "" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\javaw.exe" -Xms256m -Xmx512m -jar Schematic2Blueprint.jar
should work now :)

Many thanks for making this program, I love being able to see how to build the different schematics. Now I can use this program to convert designs to my other hobby, building with Lego.

This was very helpful. thank you for the post and keep up the good work.

MC runs on java 6 for windows, but it does not require java 6 for mac's (5.somthin currently) ... mac's don't have java 6 yet... that's why people on mac's will not be able to run this program until it's updated for them (java that is) ...

This is EXACTLY what I was looking for. I've been requested to add schematics to our server map, but being vanilla-ish, I don't like to do it too often, even on my own projects. This will be an awesome tool to recomend to the Genesis community. I'll be sure to link them here!

I've updated it to 1.6.5, tall grass, dead shrubs and trap doors are now fully working.
The newest version is, as always, on the homepage at http://klaue.net16.net/programme/ownprogs/java/schematic2blueprint.en.php#download

Have fun

I'm having an issue opening the program. I have Java installed and fully updated, however whn i try to open it with javaw.exe it says "Could not find the main class. Program will exit." or if i rty an earlier version of javaw.exe (still version6) it opens up a cmd window them immediately closes. Any help?

Do you perhaps try to open the zip?
You have to unpack the zip and then just doubleclick on windows.bat (that should work for about 95% of people)

I read somewhere in another thread around here about how a block counter would be cool to know how many blocks you have to collect for the schematic..
so I made one :D



it's included in the newest version on the homepage, in the tools menu

First off let me say i absolutely love this program. has allowed me to use some of thegreat ideas on this site which in turn has allowed me to grow as a builder due to seeing how to do new things.

Now on to my post reason :P

Its more of a request, but i am a person who can get distracted easily sometimes, and i was wondering if it would be possible to program in, a way to set two or even 3 markers to mark places. this would make it easier to count and also set your place if you have to turn away for a moment or two.

Also an option to turn on and off a numbered grid would be nice too.



anyways again thank you for this program and awesome work.

well, it would be possible, but with the way it's currently implemented, that could mean quite some work. well, I'll see the next time I'm in the mood to prog.

As for counting, every fifth line is slightly thicker
