Cartography
by LordFokas
With Cartography installed, Blaze Map shows extra map layers for the rock types, temperature and rainfall of a TerraFirmaCraft world.
What it does
Cartography is an add-on for TerraFirmaCraft that extends the Blaze Map mapping mod. Its additional maps display the rock types, temperature and rainfall across the world, which helps navigate a TFC world and track where ore deposits have been found. The mod is Forge-only and is published for 1.18.2 and 1.20.1.
Both Blaze Map and TerraFirmaCraft are required, so each must be installed next to Cartography. The mod requires the client, while a server can skip it. Cartography is released under All rights reserved and is not open source, although its source code and issue tracker are publicly linked. The first build appeared on 2025-02-13, and the latest 0.5.3-beta file for 1.20.1 is in the beta channel.
Key features
Rock type map
A map layer shows the rock types of the terrain, so ore-bearing stone can be located from the map.
Temperature and rainfall maps
Separate layers show the temperature and rainfall of each area, matching the TFC climate system.
Ore discovery tracking
Discovered ore deposits are marked on the map, so the search for new deposits is recorded over time.
Map alongside Blaze Map
The extra maps appear through Blaze Map, so one interface shows the base map and the TFC layers.
