Project Lodestone - Documentation

In this repo, you'll find documentation on various mechanics and file types for many versions and editions of the game.

What is Project Lodestone?

Note

This project is still in development!

Project Lodestone is a toolset that aims to edit and convert Minecraft worlds across various editions, including Java Edition, Bedrock Edition, all Console Editions, support for both current and legacy versions. Essentially a mega tool.

Note

Support for community-made converters/readers will be looked at, but is not the main focus at this time.
