mcjava-wiki
The official discord server for this project. The primary purpose of this Discord is to support and facilitate contributions to this wiki, though resource pack support is also availible.
Blockbench
The official Discord of the 3D modeling program Blockbench. Blockbench is the most commonly used Minecraft 3D modeling program. Though the Discord is primarily for supporting Blockbench, general resource pack help is also commonly provided for all platforms Blockbench supports.
Minecraft
The official Minecraft Discord server. Some help is offered for both Bedrock and Java resource packs, though it can be quite chaotic given the size of the Discord. The search functionality is sometimes useful due to the shear number of questions that have been asked.
Nullbox
A Discord primarily focused on voxel modeling for Minecraft: Java Edition. This Discord may be especially helpful for users of Cubik, as this is the tool of choice for voxel-style Minecraft models.
