This plugin detects cuboids within meshes and converts them into real Blockbench cubes, including rotated cuboids and meshes made up of multiple merged cubes.
UVs are transferred exactly. A detected cuboid is only converted when every face maps cleanly onto a cube face, meaning no distorted UVs and no rotations other than 90 degree steps.
Usage
Select the meshes you want to convert, or select nothing to convert every mesh in the project.
Use Tools > Convert Mesh to Cubes to run the conversion.
Valid cuboids are extracted into cubes, and any remaining geometry stays behind as a mesh. Meshes that convert completely are removed.
Detection rules
Complete 6 sided cuboids always convert, even when merged into other geometry.
Partial cuboids with missing faces (such as a hidden face deleted where a slope was merged on) convert when at least 4 faces remain. Missing faces become disabled faces on the cube.
Isolated geometry that is not attached to anything else converts with any number of faces, so a lone flat plane becomes a zero thickness cube.
