rmapbash

Minecraft map renderer

Reads a saved Minecraft world from disk and outputs a rendered .PNG image.

Features so far

• Orthographic (top-down) or isometric (oblique) viewing angle.
• Day or night lighting mode.
• Nether and End supported; just point to the DIM-1 or DIM1 subdir of the save dir.
• Render part of a world by passing coordinates at two corners of a bounding box; e.g. -b 10 20 200 400 to render only the area between (10, 20) and (200, 400).
• Render a vertical slice by passing min/max Y values; e.g. -y 20 100.

About

This is my first project in Rust; I've been using it to learn the language.

It's a reimplementation of my first C project, cmapbash, which is what I used to learn that language.
