  • How you can convert your MINECRAFT MAPS to 3D Models ?
    http://www.realtimerendering.com/erich/minecraft/public/mineways/index.html Mineways lets you export your Minecraft creations into files...

    http://www.realtimerendering.com/erich/minecraft/public/mineways/index.html

    Mineways lets you export your Minecraft creations into files you can use for making images, movies, or 3D prints. It is a free, open-source program for exporting your Minecraft models for 3D printing on your own printer or through a service such as Shapeways or Sculpteo, viewing on the web through Sketchfab, and rendering with Blender, 3DS MAX, Maya, Cinema 4D, or other rendering system.

    The latest Windows version is 5.09; for Mac it's version 5.04, 32-bit only (read the notes for the Mac). For Linux, use WINE to emulate Windows.

    Minecraft is a computer game that randomly generates infinite worlds made up of cubic blocks of various materials, with each block being 1x1x1 meter. There are rules that govern how the world works, but no set goals. Generally you mine the materials from the world, combine ("craft") them into blocks, and place each block in the world to build structures, all using an in-game character that moves like it would in a first-person shooter game. You can play in worlds on your own computer, or with other players on multiplayer servers.

    There is more to it than that, including monsters that can get in the way, but I refer you to a few sites that describe it in more detail:


    A crafting example from the Minecraft wiki.

    The game has become quite popular over the past few months. The single Swedish programmer who is developing it has it has over 400,000 paying customers and has made over five million dollars on it so far. And it is only in an "alpha" state!

    From my perspective, I find that it appeals to that part of you that loves LEGO, model trains, or building sand castles and pillow forts. I also find it very liberating to be limited to cubes, which sounds ironic. If I had more elaborate or complex tools to build with, the learning curve would discourage me from building something interesting. Only having cubes, I feel much more inclined to dive in and start building.

    1. In the Category menu mark the item License administration -> Clients.

      Select the Licenses index page.

      Select a license product top right.

      -> Now detailed license information is displayed under License key and Host ID/Role.

      Licenses

      Licenses

       

    2. Check, whether all received licenses are listed.

       

      If the license file „*.cnsldb“ is not listed or you have received a new license file, which you want to add to the list, then do the following:

      • Click on the Add file button.

        -> An explorer window opens, where you can select further license files (*.cnsldb).

      • Search the storage location of the file.

      • Open the license file.

      --> Now the file is listed in the license administration.

        Note

      Remove file(s): ... deletes the marked file(s).

      Thereby not only the entry in the license administration is removed, but also the respective *.cnsldb file in the lic / keysdirectory of your PARTsolutions installation. In case of need you can rebuild the file from the backup file *.bak. Simply rename the license file to *.cnsldb again.

       

    3.  Mark the License file in the dialog area top right.

      License product marked

      License product marked

       

      --> The individual License keys with Expiration date and Status are listed.

    4.  Check, whether the Host ID of the license (downright) is according to one of the Host ID displayed above (see Fig. „Licenses“).

      (Exception: Some products (e.g. free catalogs) have so-called zero-licenses '0000 0000 0000'). Here the hostid doesn't have to be according)

    5. In order for the license to be effective for the respective module (PARTdataManager, etc.), the Status has to be OK (green).

      If this is the case, then the licensing was successful.

      Possible status messages are:

      • OK

      • Newer entry exists

      • Valid for other computer

      • Expires

        Indeed the license is still valid, however you should take care to get a following license in time.

      • Expired

    6. In order to finish the procedure, click on the Save changes button! (If not already happened during the license installation).

       

      --> Now PARTsolutions is enabled.

    7. Call up software and support information

      After double-click on a license file / license product (*.cnsldb) the Software information dialog box appears.

      In the Customer information dialog area you can find your Customer number. Stating the number helps the support better help you.

      Under Dealer information you can find the relevant dealer with Support e-mail and support phone number.

      Software information

      Software information

       

      Check catalog licenses

      As of V9.03 catalogs without valid license are displayed in their own category under PARTadmin -> PARTsolutions -> Catalog update-> Online -> Catalogs, no valid license.

      Catalogs, no valid license

       

    8. Get further help regarding licensing by clicking F1 within PARTsolutions
