Item Icon Exporter

by Saku_rain

Item Icon Exporter is a client-side utility that batch-exports in-game items and blocks as transparent PNG images saved to a local drive.

ForgeNeoForgeClient-side onlyAll rights reserved1.20.1 – 1.21.1

What it does

Players run the export from inside the game, and each item or block is rendered and written as a PNG with a fully transparent background, which suits wikis and modpack documentation. The output folder and the square image sizes are set in the configuration, and sizes are entered as whole numbers, so 32 produces a 32x32 image. Paths can be absolute or relative to the game directory.

Only the client needs the mod, so players join multiplayer servers without installing anything on the server side. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge, with builds for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1 released under All rights reserved. The project is not open source.

Items that share an ID but carry different data components or NBT tags are told apart, so variations are not left out of a batch export. A separate option controls items with the enchantment glint: the glint can be removed visually before the icon is exported, which gives a plain icon of an enchanted item.

Key features

  1. Transparent PNG output

    Each icon is saved with a fully transparent background and no extra padding around the item.

  2. Batch export

    Whole inventories are captured in one run, producing one image per item variant.

  3. Data component handling

    Items with the same ID but different data components or NBT values are exported as separate images.

  4. Configurable sizes and paths

    Several square sizes can be listed at once, and the output folder accepts absolute or relative paths.

  5. Glint control

    Enchanted items can be exported with the glint removed, so the icon shows the base item only.

Questions

Does Item Icon Exporter need to be installed on the server?

No. The environment is client-side only, so only the player's client needs the mod and it works on multiplayer servers without server installation.

Which loaders and versions does Item Icon Exporter support?

Forge and NeoForge builds exist for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1. The latest Forge file is 1.0.3 for 1.20.1 and the latest NeoForge file is 1.0.3 for 1.21.1, both dated 2026-05-21.

Can items with different NBT data be exported separately?

Yes. Items that share an ID but have different data components or NBT values are exported as distinct images, so variations are not lost in a batch export.
