Hi,


I've seen the question come up a few times now that people are asking what do they open .schematic files with.  So here's the sticky with the information:

MCEdit is a versatile map utility, designed for moving blocks from one level to another.

• With it, you can open a level of nearly any type and fly around in glorious 3D with multiple levels of detail!
• Select millions of blocks and clone them anywhere else in the level.
• Fill a boxy selection with the block of your choice, or replace one kind of block with another.
• Export blocks to a "schematic" file for later use.
• Import a schematic or an entire level into any world using the crane.
• Move the player or his spawn point.
• Create and and remove chunks from the world.
• Fill blackened areas with light. Find bugs!

How do you Fill blackened areas with light ?

Select the area you want to light (does not need to include height)
Then select the Chunk tool (last one in the toolbar)
Select Relight option

EDIT:  Also when you save the world (CTRL-S) it automatically relights everything.

I downloaded a big map, i cant open it on MCEdit, what can i do?

[calo4562]

It probably is too big! or maybe it isn't a .schematic, so make sure and add a .schematic to the end of the file name before you open it!

 You can put them in any folder, if you cannot find your schematic files, search your documents for MCEdit.
