To make a shaded version of one of your projects, you can use a program called Chunky. That program allows you to render maps of minecraft like using in-game shaders

Making your first render
First, in the folder caled "Chunky", double-click chunky.jar (that runs the program). Then, click the button "Select World" and choose one. Appears a map of the project loaded. Select the chunks that you want to render with right-click and click the tab called "3D render". On that tab click the button called "New Scene" and put the name of the project. A tab that is called "Render Preview" is the interface to move around the world (the controls are WASD and click and drag to move the center). When you are in the position of the render, click in the tab "Render controls [the name of your project]" The START button. Wait some about 15-10 minutes and done! The image is in a folder called .chunky


Getting started
  • First, download the program.
  • Second, check your computer RAM.
  • Open the file called "chunky.bat" with notepad or something like that
  • Default, says "java -Xms512m -Xmx2g -jar Chunky.jar".

If you have, per example, 2 gigabytes of RAM, i recommend to you to put "java -Xms512m -Xmx1g -jar Chunky.jar" and if you have 1, put java "-Xms512m -Xmx512m -jar Chunky.jar" you can put 256 if you have 512 MB.
