What is this good for? Can you import it into other games, or is it just a way to look at the world?

Regardless, that render is gorgeous.

Maybe people should love for the sake of loving, and not with all of these optimization conditions.

Even if it's only pretty to look at, it's still damn awesome.

Looks terrific.  Though you forgot the little circles on top of the LEGO bricks :)

I have a question. Where do the voxel maps go? Because I don't know where to find them.

Hello,

I made An account just to tell you how great this looks!
Only problem is that when I launch the exe, nothing happens. The zip folder only contains an exe and a config file.

You might need to install a different version of .net framework.

I don't remember which one this uses though.

I cant open the xraw file in magicavoxel. I go in the model tab, click the import button (the one with [...]) select the .xraw file and nothing happens.

How do I open the file voxel fortress produce?

[EDIT] After some time I noted a large number of unique colors were been generated and it wouldnt open in magicavoxel. It worked without the texture map.

Did magicavoxel always had the cap of 126x126x126? If so, it doesn't fit even a pocket world, that is 256x256

You have to open it in magicavoxel viewer, not the editor.

The viewer supports 65536 colors, and 2048x2048x2048 models, while the editor only supports 255 colors and 127x127x127 models.
