PixelCraft
PixelCraft is a free Windows application that turns photos, logos, and artwork into Minecraft block pixel art. It accepts PNG, JPG, GIF, and BMP files, and lets users choose a Minecraft version from 1.12 through 1.21. Palettes include all supported blocks, Survival-only blocks, or a custom selection; color matching uses CIE LAB. Users can paint individual blocks or replace every occurrence of a block type in one action. Exports include datapack ZIP, .mcfunction, plain command text, and WorldEdit .schem files. The WorldEdit output uses Sponge Schematic v2 and is compatible with WorldEdit 7.x. Build Mode provides a row-by-row guide and lets users mark placed blocks as complete. The app runs offline and processes files locally without sending data elsewhere. It is an open-source Python application packaged with PyInstaller. PixelCraft requires Windows 10/11 64-bit and about 150 MB of disk space. Its block IDs and command formats target Java Edition, so Bedrock exports may need manual adjustment. Large functions can cause brief lag at 50,000 or more setblock commands.
