[Minecraft] How to create a Litematica blueprint | How to create a schema for your own architecture

When using Litematica,
What many people want to do as the next step is

• I want to make my own architecture a blueprint
• I want to reproduce the same architecture in another world
• I want to create a schema for multiplayer and distribution

This is “Create a blueprint (schematic)”.

In this article,

• Steps to create a blueprint with Litematica
• Points that are likely to fail
• Practical tips from architects

A complete explanation of

for beginners.

What is Litematica Blueprint?

Litematica blueprints are
**files (.litematic) that store architectural data**.

If you have this blueprint,

• You can build the same architecture in another world
• You can share your architecture with others
• You can reproduce large-scale architecture as many times as you like

The state will be

.

What you need to create a blueprint

The following must be installed in advance.

• Fabric
• MELib
Litematics

※ Litematica alone does not work
※ Forgetting to insert MaLiLib is the most common mistake

Preparation before creating blueprints

① Complete the architecture

You can make it in the middle, but
It is better to do it after it is completed to prevent it from shifting or chipping.

② Delete unnecessary blocks

• 足場
• Temporary block
• Working pillar

If these remain
they will also be included in the blueprint.

How to make a blueprint [Basic steps]

Step 1: Set area selection mode

1. M key opens Litematica menu
2. Select “Area Selection”
3. Click “New Selection”

You are now in range specification mode.

---

Step 2: Specify the start and end points

• Left click: Starting point (1st point)
• Right click: End point (2nd point)

Make sure that the entire building is
completely enclosed.

Common mistakes

• Insufficient height
• One block is missing on the ground side

→ Please note that it is difficult to understand at first glance

---

Step 3: Save the schematic

1. Mキー →「Save Schematic」
2. Enter name
3. Execute save

This will create a
.litematic file.

The save destination is the
.minecraft/schematics folder.

How to check if the blueprint is correct

This is a must-do check.

1. Load the blueprint once
2. Overlaid with original architecture
3. Check for missing or misaligned parts

If the blue/red display does not appear, it is OK.

Tips for creating blueprints from architects

Tips 1: Leave some white space

If you enclose it at the last minute,

• Cut out
• Display deviation

will be easier to wake up.

It is stable to leave 1-2 block margins.

---

Tips 2: Be aware of the direction

The blueprint has an orientation (north/south).

• No problem if rotation is assumed
• Be sure to check if the orientation is fixed

I often find myself saying, “It was in the opposite direction…” afterwards.

---

Tips 3: Create a split schema

For large buildings,

• Exterior
• Interior
• Decoration

It will be easier to use if you change

to separate schema.

Notes when creating survival blueprints

When using for survival,

• Are there any blocks that are unavailable?
• Are there too many decorative blocks

Let’s check

.

By looking at the **Material List**, you can determine whether
it is realistic.

Common problems and solutions

Some parts are missing from the blueprint

→ Range specification mistake
→ Recheck height/edge

Cannot save

→ Write permission
→ MOD version mismatch

Can be loaded, but is out of sync

→ The origin position is shifted
→ Check the reference point of the blueprint

---

Points to consider when distributing and sharing with others

• Write version notation
• Specify any required MODs
• Write the purpose of use (survivability)

With just this,
the troubles will be drastically reduced.

---

Compatible MODs

This is a MOD that is compatible with blueprint creation.

• MiniHUD (center/height confirmation)
• WorldEdit (groundwork creation)

Design → Modify → Re-save becomes smoother.

Summary｜If you can create blueprints, the range of architecture will expand at once

Once you can create blueprints with Litematica,

• Architectural reuse
• Distribution and sharing
• Stabilization of large-scale buildings

Everything is possible.

It may seem difficult at first, but
Once you get used to it, it will take less than 5 minutes.

Try it out with a small building first,
and gradually try larger designs.
