1.0.1 - Voxelier Update​

Release date: 2026-07-26

Changed​

  • Project name changed to Voxelier.

Fixed​

  • Heightmap import was incorrectly interpolated on images with lower resolution than the world size.

1.0.0 - The Update Update​

Release date: 2026-07-16

Added​

  • Ported the project to WebAssembly for a web demo.
  • New node, ScriptNode, which allows running a Rhai script within the node editor.
  • New annotation layer, for drawing shapes and text on the terrain, used for taking notes.
  • On export, several post-processing steps are available: ores, caves, grass, flowers, sugar cane and cactus.
  • Overhauled the fluid system to support multiple fluid types, with lava support.
  • Ability to import a texture pack.

Changed​

  • Overhauled the website and documentation.
  • RAM optimization: starting at 16k x 16k, the map is streamed from disk rather than fully loaded into RAM.
  • Improved shader for light, water and atmosphere effects.
  • Iterative option for scripts, to rerun a script on the same world multiple times with each iteration applied.
  • New functions in the scripting API to manipulate the new layer types.
  • Bedrock is now noised like in vanilla.
  • The selection can now be made invisible for a clearer view of the terrain.
  • POV movement is now smoothed to avoid jerkiness when changing altitude.

Fixed​

  • Cave generation was reworked to be less noisy.
  • Altitude face culling was hardcoded for a 320-block-tall world; it is now dynamic.

0.6.7 - Six Seven Update​

Release date: 2026-06-07

Added​

  • The node editor has been enriched with many new nodes, 18 in total with new node types Scalar, Color, Material, Image.
  • River tool: a new tool for creating from Catmull-Rom curves.
  • Posterization has been improved to make it easier to create materials and ground covers, with better control over the colors used.
  • VRAM usage optimization: VRAM no longer depends on world size. A 16k x 16k map now uses about 4 GB of VRAM instead of 16 GB.
  • Objects are now placed using a Poisson distribution to avoid collisions.
  • Individually placed objects are now sourced from the Schematics Library rather than an Object Layer.
  • 3D terrain borders now show the geological layers Stone and Deepslate.

  • New minimum world height options (-128 and -256).
  • Materials can now have height-indexed properties other than layers.
  • Double-clicking a schematic in the schematics library adds it to the active layer and closes the library.
  • The command palette (F1) now includes the tools.
  • The move/hand tool is activated by default when opening a world and when deselecting the active tool.
  • Right-click with the smooth tool performs the inverse action of the smooth tool (the terrain becomes rougher).
  • The "Vanilla Ores", "Vanilla Geo" and "Vanilla Caves" layers have their dimensions automatically adjusted to the world size.
  • Creating and editing world dimensions is now asynchronous with a progress bar.

Fixed​

  • 3D image conversion is now limited to the size of the image.
  • The water flood fill tool did not correctly separate bodies of water on right-click.
  • The layer list scrollbar no longer overlaps the delete buttons.
  • Fixed a crash with the ruler tool when moving the mouse outside the 2D/3D view.
  • Fixed the copy tool incorrectly copying the "Grass" layer.
  • Fixed right-click with the paint and spray tools not working correctly with the active layer.
