Simple Image Renderer
by Patbox
Simple Image Renderer lets players render items, blocks, entities and regions to image files through client-side commands, using an orthographic isometric view.
What it does
Rendering runs entirely on the client, so a server does not need the mod and players join without installing anything. Commands produce images of a held or inventory item, an item with its components, an item from the creative tab, a block state, an entity, or a whole region including the entities inside it. Output can use isometric or orthographic perspective.
Image names can follow the item or block id and display name, or stay generic, depending on the use-id-name option. A command opens the folder where the rendered images are saved. Creative tab rendering is noted to work alongside Polymer. The source code and issue tracker are public, and the project is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only.
Simple Image Renderer is published for Fabric only, across six release versions 1.21.11 – 26.3, with snapshot builds also published. The latest Fabric file, 1.3.0+26.3 for 26.3, was released on 2026-09-12, and the first release dates from 2026-01-18.
Key features
Item rendering
Renders an item in the hand or from the inventory, including the components it carries.
Block state rendering
Renders a block in a chosen block state, so each variant can be captured as its own image.
Entity rendering
Renders an entity to an image file, for use in documentation or wiki pages.
Region rendering
Renders a region of the world together with the entities inside it, in one image.
Naming and folder access
Image names can use the item or block id and display name, and a command opens the output folder.
