MiEX
MiEx exports Minecraft worlds to USD, the Universal Scene Description format, for use in visual effects and animation.
About MiEX
MiEx is a Minecraft world exporter written in Java. It converts Minecraft worlds into USD (Universal Scene Description) so they can be used in visual effects and animation work. Bram Stout Productions originally created it to help build sets for animations. The homepage states that it has also been used for animations in Minecraft Live and Element Animation videos.
The exporter uses Minecraft's resource pack system to reproduce the world's appearance, including custom resource packs, biome colours, and animated textures. It can export large worlds in chunks that are loaded as payloads, so users can choose which parts of a world to bring into a scene. The source lists GitHub as the place to get MiEx and links to a wiki for documentation.
