FileToVox is a console program which allow you to convert a file into a vox file (Magicavoxel).
Current files support:
- .schematic
- .png
- .asc (Esri ASCII raster format)
- .binvox
- .obj
- .qb (Qubicle)
It support world region, so you can convert a terrain bigger than 126^3 voxels !

--iminy, -ignore-min-y=VALUE ignore blocks below the specified layer (only for schematic file)
--imaxy, -ignore-max-y=VALUE ignore blocks above the specified layer (only for schematic file)
--e, -excavate delete all blocks which doesn't have at lease one face connected with air
--s, -scale=VALUE increase the scale of each block (only for schematic file)
--hm -heightmap=VALUE create voxels terrain from heightmap with the specified height (only for PNG file)
--c, -color enable color when generating heightmap (only for PNG file)
--cm, -color-from-file=VALUE load color from another file
--gs -grid-size=VALUE set the grid size (only for OBJ file)
--slow=VALUE use a slower algorithm (use all cores) to generate voxels from OBJ but best result (value should be enter 0.0 and 1.0 (0.5 is recommanded)
Go to the release page and download the lastest version of FileToVox. Be sure to download the binary and not the source code. Then extract the content of zip file in the folder of your choice.
