ProtoBlock — Snap-to-Grid Level Blockout for Blender

Primitives, modular kit pieces, CSG booleans, FBX export with collision — the fastest grayboxing pipeline for Blender.

Why ProtoBlock

Level designers waste hours wrestling Blender's modelling tools to do what should be a single keystroke: drop a wall on the grid, snap a stair into place, boolean a doorway, save the result as a reusable kit piece. ProtoBlock collapses all of that into a single sidebar.

Features

• Grid snap with backup/restore of your existing snap settings
• 8 primitives tuned for level design: cube, cylinder, wall, pillar, ramp, floor, arch, stairs
• CSG booleans — Union / Difference / Intersect with auto-apply
• Kit pieces — save / load reusable modular pieces from a dedicated collection
• Auto box-UV for clean tiling textures on grayboxed walls
• FBX export with placeholder bbox collision (Unity / Unreal / Godot ready)
• Per-object materials — cycling colors does not recolour everything

Compatibility

• Blender: 3.2 and later (4.x supported)
• OS: Windows / macOS / Linux
• Engines: Unity / Unreal / Godot via FBX

What you get
