ccRegionManipulate

a simple python script which allows you to copy, move or delete region files (2dr + 3dr) in a 1.12.2 Cubic Chunks worlds within specified 3dr bounding box ranges.

This script is only for the 1.12.2 Cubic Chunks worlds.

Prequisites

• Python 3

Installation

• place the script inside your world folder that you want to process
• run the script from command-line interface:

python ccRegionManipulate.py

if you on macOS or Linux:

python3 ccRegionManipulate.py - (mac comes with pre-installed python 2 that is not sufficient, get Python 3)

Usage

1. choose operation mode:

• c - to copy regions into ./region2dOutput and ./region3dOutput
• m - to move regions into ./region2dOutput and ./region3dOutput
• d - to delete regions

2. input coordinates in 2dr space range (MC Region coordinates, 512x512 blocks):

• minimum X
• maximum X
• minimum Z
• maximum Z

3. [optional] set vertical range in 3dr space range (256x256x256 blocks):

• n if you want process everything from top to bottom.
• y if you want to set vertical limit:
  • minimum Y
  • maximum Y

4. confirm to start processing.

Input coordinates in 2dr space (Minecraft region coordinates):
min x: 20
max x: 200
min z: 10
max z: 300
The bounding box is '181x291' large in 2dr space
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[optional]: Do you want to set vertical range in 3dr (256x256x256 cubes) space? (n/y)
(if you don't, all cubes vertically will be processed) n
Vertical range limit was not set
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total number of 2dr files to be processed: 241
Total number of 3dr files to be processed: 1670
