Torii Brick

A traditional Japanese gate I made as an example brick. 34 bricks wide and 21 bricks tall. The red part is colorable.

Features
  • Brick icon.
  • Proper brick grid.
  • Accurate collision.
  • Minimal coverage due to the shape of the brick, only bottom quads are hidden when covered.
  • Support_Updater versioning.


This is a sample brick for Blender BLB Exporter.

The BLB files were exported using the BLB exporter by doing the following:
  • Selecting layers 1-3.
  • In the export dialog, using the following properties (deviating from defaults):
    • Export Only: Layers
    • Coverage: Self Bottom

Additionally the Blender file includes the camera, light, and material used for rendering special brick icons that closely match the default Blockland style. Icon is to be rendered without anti-aliasing. Post-processing is required to scale the icon to the correct resolution using bilinear interpolation.

certainly cool but tbh that seems like something that would be really easy to build with normal bricks.

It is, and imo looks nicer.

Sure, it is. But he's using this to advertise his Blender BL Exporter. It's a really nice example of how advanced it really is.

That's only half of the reason. The brick has uses in a Japanese themed build.

Sorry. One word too much. Fixed.
