XaeroNuhUh
XaeroNuhUh is a server-side utility that stops players from using Xaero's World Map and Xaero's Minimap on a multiplayer server, whatever their client settings.
What it does
Server owners install the mod to block Xaero's World Map and Xaero's Minimap from working for players who join. The restriction is enforced by the server, so a player cannot switch it off by changing client settings. Players join without any extra installation, and the mod needs no setup beyond placing it in the server's mods folder.
Its stated purpose is fair exploration on servers where players should find their way through the world rather than rely on map overlays. The mod is built around Fabric API and runs on Fabric and NeoForge, with files for 26.2 published on 2026-08-10. Source code and an issue tracker are public, and the project is open source under the MIT License.
The mod is published for seven release versions, 1.21.1 – 26.2, on 1.21.1, 1.21.10, 1.21.11, 26.1, 26.1.1, 26.1.2 and 26.2. It was first published on 2025-11-16 and last updated on 2026-08-10. Because it only runs on the server, it leaves the client side of a player's installation untouched.
Key features
Server-enforced map blocking
The server turns off Xaero's World Map and Xaero's Minimap for every player who connects, regardless of their settings.
Automatic on join
Restrictions apply as soon as a player joins, so no per-player configuration is needed on the server.
Lightweight plug-and-play
The mod is small and needs no client installation, so it adds little overhead to a server.
Cave mode restriction
The block also covers the cave mode of Xaero's World Map, so underground exploration is restricted as well.

How it compares
XaeroPatcher is client-side only, is not open source, and is published for 1.21.11 under All rights reserved, so it changes a player's own client. Fair Play for Xaero's Maps is server required with client optional, runs on Fabric, NeoForge and Quilt for 1.7.10 – 26.3, and is not open source, making it the option for servers that need a broader version range. Xaero PointShare is client-side only and open source under the MIT License, covering 1.21.11 – 26.2 on Fabric.
