Sivage
by Sammy
Sivage lets players generate map art from images on a server, using dialog GUIs instead of commands, and it is a Fabric mod for modern Minecraft.
What it does
Sivage provides a simple route to server-sided images through dialog GUIs, so the output can be used as map art. The mod takes heavy inspiration from Image2Map and Map4Image, and aims to be more survival friendly by providing craftable items and GUIs in place of commands. It also gives players a way to bring images from the internet into the in-game world, and it accepts the image types most often found on the web.
Image processing is handled inside the JVM. The author notes that this keeps the work in Java and avoids a separate Rust or WebAssembly component, at the cost of slower processing than a directly developed image processor. Because the approach supports many formats, it runs on most Java distributions that depend on ImageIO. Installation requires Fabric API, and the mod is published for Fabric only, across 11 release versions 1.21.6 – 26.3, licensed under the European Union Public License 1.2.
