About

Description

Turn your ideas into solid foundations.

Formatic is a building mod by Newlight Studios that helps you construct geometric shapes without placing every block individually.

Use the Shape Gadget to design cuboids, ellipsoids, cylinders, domes, pyramids, cones, arches and toruses. Adjust their dimensions, thickness, orientation and position, then review a holographic preview before construction begins.

Choose solid or hollow designs, sample materials directly from existing builds, and browse supported blocks from Minecraft and installed mods.

Built for survival

Construction uses blocks from your inventory or linked storage and consumes Forge Energy. Craft a Charging Dock to power your gadget with fuel, or connect a compatible FE system.

Builds progress over time and automatically pause when materials or power run out. You can pause, resume or cancel work through the Activity menu.

Room to experiment

Progressive undo restores recorded changes and refunds consumed materials where possible. Blocks changed afterward are left untouched.

Features

  • Eight configurable shapes with solid and hollow options.
  • Holographic previews and confirmation before building.
  • Searchable material browser with supported modded blocks.
  • Linked storage for larger projects.
  • Adjustable dimensions up to 64 blocks per axis.
  • Saved construction history and progressive undo.
  • Rebindable controls and configurable server settings.

Requires Minecraft 1.21.1, NeoForge and Java 21. Install Formatic on both client and server. No additional content or energy mod is required.
