Getting Started with 3D Previews

Viewing Your Schematics Before Loading

SchematicPreview adds a 3D preview display to Litematica's file menu, letting you see what your saved blueprints look like before placing them in your world. When browsing your schematic files, the mod renders a clear three-dimensional view of the structure.

The mod also organizes your files with custom folder and file icons, making it easier to locate specific builds quickly. Once you've found a schematic, you can use the built-in replace button in the material list to swap out blocks without leaving the menu—useful for adapting blueprints to different block palettes or resources.

Access SchematicPreview settings through the configuration menu to customize hotkeys and adjust how the preview tools function to suit your workflow.
