8Crafter's Panorama Generator

Instructions

To create a panorama, do the following:

1. Open Minecraft.
2. Set your FOV to 90.00.
3. Disable the FOV Can Be Altered By Gameplay toggle.
4. Put Minecraft in fullscreen.
5. Choose the direction you want it to start out facing (find the y vector of that rotation (should be between -180 and 180), this will be referenced as rotY).
6. Take screenshots in the following directions in this order (the order matters because the script uses the creation date of the file to determine the order).
   1. { x: 0, y: rotY }
   2. { x: 0, y: rotY + 90 }
   3. { x: 0, y: rotY + 180 }
   4. { x: 0, y: rotY + 270 }
   5. { x: -90, y: rotY }
   6. { x: 90, y: rotY }
7. Create a panoramas folder inside the folder containing this README file if the folder does not already exist.
8. Create a folder inside the panoramas folder with the name of your panorama.
9. Create an input folder inside of the folder with the name of your panorama.
10. Paste the screenshots into the input folder.
11. (OPTIONAL) Add a manifest.json and (OPTIONAL) pack_icon.png into the folder with the name of your panorama if you would like an .mcpack file to be generated for your panorama.
12. Run the script with npm run start.
13. The output will be inside the folder with the name of your panorama.
    • There will be a folder called output inside of the folder, which will contain the images named correctly to be put into the textures/ui folder on a resource pack.
    • There will be a folder called named_output inside of the folder, which will contain the images named based on which side of the panorama they are.
    • There will be a file called ${panoramaName}Panorama.mcpack inside of the folder if you have a manifest.json in the folder, which is the resource pack for the panorama.

Example 1:

This is an example set of commands to use for positioning yourself correctly to take the screenshots for the panorama.

/tp ~~~ 0 0
/tp ~~~ 90 0
/tp ~~~ 180 0
/tp ~~~ 270 0
/tp ~~~ -90 0
/tp ~~~ 90 0

Example 2:

This is an example set of commands and scripts to use for positioning yourself correctly to take the screenshots for the panorama.

/tp 48183.0 118 31372.0 0 0

Note: The script in this example uses 8Crafter's Server Utilities & Debug Sticks add-on (you give yourself the canUseScriptEval tag and then paste it into chat).

Run the below script 6 times, each time incrementing the 0 at the end, taking a screenshot after running it each time.

${ase}function setPanoramaCamera(location, rotY, screenshotIndex = 0) {player.camera.setCamera("minecraft:free", { location, rotation: { x: screenshotIndex < 4 ? 0 : -90 * (-1) ** screenshotIndex, y: rotY + (screenshotIndex < 4 ? screenshotIndex * 90 : 0) } })}; setPanoramaCamera({ x: 48183, y: 118 + (player.getHeadLocation().y - player.location.y), z: 31377 }, 180, 0);
