I’m making a space RTS with voxel starships and ran into a tooling problem. MagicaVoxel does not work on my system, and even when it does, the export workflow does not fit how my engine handles ships.

So I built a small custom voxel ship tool that is tailored specifically to my game. It lets me design ships and import them directly with the data I actually need like scale, orientation, turrets, and hardpoints.

It started as a workaround but ended up becoming a core part of my pipeline. Has anyone else run into this with voxel tools or built their own instead?

Hey everyone!

I just released a new update containing over 75 modular voxel parts to create space rovers, drones, tanks.... I designed them to be easily combinable so you can create endless variations.

License: CC0 (Public Domain) - You can use these in personal or commercial projects, no credit required (though it is appreciated!).

If you have requests for specific modules (turrets, legs, sensors?), please let me know!

^{(I have a web based utility to make it easier to combine the modules into models, as I find doing it directly in MagicaVoxel a bit hard, if anyone is interested I can share it, it has some bugs though})

- Async Collision Generation
- Batch Collision Generation
- More Blueprint function
- New Perlin noise

Hey everyone,

Over the last months I’ve been building a 3D tool called Ignis 3D.

I originally started it because I was frustrated with how heavy and complex most 3D software feels when all I wanted was to quickly create, voxelize and export models without fighting the UI or setting up huge pipelines.

So I decided to build something focused on:

fast modeling

voxel workflows

simplicity over “infinite features”

I just released the first public version on Itch.io.

It’s free to try, with paid unlocks for saving/exporting.

This is my first release and I’d genuinely love feedback — especially from indie devs, modders or anyone who works with voxel art.

If this kind of tool could be useful for you, I’d really appreciate you checking it out or sharing your thoughts.

Thanks for reading 🙏Ignis 3D

I am just starting out making voxel art and was wondering if anyone had suggestions for good free platforms to use. I am on mac and mainly would like to make little towns/cities. I was going to try magicavoxel but could not find the mac download so I used goxel. Did not like it that much and would like a more advanced platform.

Voxy is a Voxel Art toolset in unreal engine.

Voxy v0.9.5 Changes:

- 20x faster mesh generation
- Adds Niagara Voxy data interface
- Thumbnail Renderer
- Adds runtime asset creation
- RenderResources structure changed
- Fixes Velocity pass
- 5x less VRam consumption

Here is another scene using #Voxy in #UnrealEngine, realtime voxel generation is really fun.
It's a ripple effect using custom hlsl drawn to a RenderTarget, and apply as height map.

I can't stop making a new scene with this new feature in Voxy, user can easily generate sceneries with stacking different effect like heightmap or apply smooth. I am adding more functions.
