x3d map

by xkball

With x3d map installed, players see a rotatable, zoomable 3D view of the terrain as a minimap overlay on NeoForge.

NeoForgeClient and serverGNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 or laterOpen source26.1.2

What it does

The mod draws the world as a three-dimensional terrain map that can be rotated and zoomed, shown as an overlay with waypoints. A 3D map also displays cave views, so underground passages appear in the map rather than only the surface layer. Compatibility mode is detected automatically from the graphics card's capabilities, and players can turn it on manually with the forceCompatibilityMode option.

No required dependency is listed for NeoForge. Client and server must both run x3d map, and the server can allow chunk data sent from the server through the allowServerSentChunk setting. The code is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 or later, and the source code and issue tracker are public. Files target 26.1.2 only.

Use cases

Exploring caves

Players who dig into caves can read the layout of tunnels from the 3D view instead of only the flat surface map.

Marking routes

Waypoints on the terrain map help players keep track of bases and routes across long journeys.

Who it’s for: Players who want a turnable terrain minimap with cave views, and server owners who want the same map on a multiplayer world.
