Isometric Renders
by glisco
Isometric Renders lets a player capture game objects such as parts of the world, blocks, items and entities as isometric images.
What it does
The /isorender command starts the capture tools. Each render is keyed to a transparent background, so the exported image can be placed over other artwork without a backdrop. Scale, positioning and other options are adjusted in-game through an interface that opens from the command.
Renders cover several kinds of subject: areas of the world, single blocks, items and entities. Batch export produces several blocks or items in one run, and Item Atlases lay items out as an overview sheet. The mod requires oωo (owo-lib) to run.
Files exist for Fabric and Quilt. Builds cover 1.16.2 – 1.21.4, with snapshot builds published alongside the releases. The code is open source under the MIT License, and the mod was first published on 2021-06-07 and last updated on 2025-03-01.

World area captures
A section of the world is captured as one isometric picture, with the scene kept together.
Batch export
Several blocks or items are exported in a single pass instead of one screenshot at a time.
Item atlases
Items are arranged on an overview sheet, which lists many items in one image.

Isometric Renders allows you to take isometric screenshots, or rather, create renders of game objects like parts of world, blocks, items and entities. These are automatically keyed to have a transparent background and you can adjust scale, positioning and many more options right in-game in a fancy gui.
