worldpainter
by mr-chibi
WorldPainter by mr-chibi lets server owners paint terrain, blocks and schematics into a world with brushes, and it is installed on the server.
What it does
Players can paint select blocks onto the world with a set of tools, including custom schematic brushes for trees, mud, roads and patterns, plus some vanilla schematics. Brush tools come in small, medium and big sizes, so a single stroke can cover a narrow line or a wide area. Terrain is shaped with a sphere brush and a smoothing brush, which raise mountains and hills and soften the surface.
The mod targets creative building, landscaping and biome painting on servers, where it covers the work of placing trees, flowers and features by hand. Installation runs on the server, and players need it only if the server requires it, so the server is the side that has to run it. Builds are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and a Data pack distribution exists as well. Files cover 1.21 – 26.2 across 14 release versions, and the mod is licensed as All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
