Upload a schematic

Here's a tutorial on how to upload schematics using the FAWE plugin

To start, you must first understand the difference between schem and schematic

The .schem file is a worldedit plugin version 1.13 or higher file, and the .schematic file is a worldedit plugin version 1.12 or lower file.

Now, once we have identified what kind of schematic we have we can continue, schematic files can be loaded into Minecraft using a plugin called WorldEdit. There are two versions of WorldEdit, the original and FastAsyncWorldEdit (FAWE). FAWE is much better for loading large schematic files however both work.

Remember something, the .schem files are for versions 1.13 or higher, and the .schematic files are for versions 1.12 or lower.

Plugin installation

Navigate to the Server Panel, then stop the server.

1. Ensure the server is running a plugin-compatible version such as PaperMC.

2. Proceed to the FTP File Access on the left-hand side, then log in.

3. Locate or create the plugins folder, then enter it.

4. Now upload the plugin.jar on this folder

5. Restart the server to load up any changes.

Next you need to copy and paste the schem/schematic file to the FAWE / Worldedit folder. There are two situations, the first is if you are installing it on a 1.12 or lower server, and the second is in case of versions 1.13 or higher, Next you will get the paths of each situation:

1. …/plugins/Worldedit/schematics In case this folder does not exist, you must create it with the previous name, then paste the schematic and continue with the next step.

2. …\plugins\FastAsyncWorldEdit\schematics In case this folder does not exist, you must create it with the previous name, then paste the schematic and continue with the next step.

Very good, now we go to minecraft, start the server and enter, you must put the following command to load the schematic / schem:

//schem load

In case you are trying to load a .schematic file in versions 1.13 or higher, you must use the format in the command, as shown below otherwise the error appears in red in the image below:

Finally the schematic is loaded, all you have to do is paste it, there are several ways to paste it, the most used are:

//paste -a and //paste

The first is to paste the schematic omitting the air blocks

And the second is to paste the schematic including the air blocks
