Godot Voxel Tools
<div><p><a href="https://github.com/Zylann/godot_voxel">Voxel Tools</a> is an open source and free C++ module for the Godot game engine that adds Voxel terrain support. You can create both blocky Minecraft style maps, or smoothed realistic maps.</p>
<p>Details of Voxel Tools features:</p>
<ul>
<li>Realtime editable, 3D based terrain (Unlike a heightmap based terrain, this allows for overhangs, tunnels, and user creation/destruction) </li>
<li>Physics based collision and raycast support </li>
<li>Infinite terrains made by paging sections in and out </li>
<li>Voxel data is streamed from a variety of sources, which includes the ability to write your own generators </li>
<li>Minecraft-style blocky voxel terrain, with multiple materials and baked ambient occlusion </li>
<li>Smooth terrain using Transvoxel </li>
<li>Levels of detail for smooth terrain </li>
<li>Voxel storage using 8-bit channels for any general purpose </li>
</ul>
<p>Since Voxel Tools are implemented as C++ modules (learn more about that topic <a href="https://www.gamefromscratch.com/post/2020/07/07/Godot-With-CPP.aspx">here</a>), you are required to recompile the Godot engine. Thankfully however Voxel Tools ships with precompiled versions available for all platforms <a href="http://tokisan.com/godot-binaries/">here</a>. The sample level used in the below video can be cloned from <a href="https://github.com/tinmanjuggernaut/voxelgame">this repository</a> and the documentation is <a href="https://github.com/Zylann/godot_voxel/blob/master/doc/01_get-started.md">available here</a>.</p>
