Xaero's World Map

by thexaero

Xaero's World Map records explored terrain as a full-screen map that writes itself while the player travels.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltClient required, server optionalAll rights reserved1.7.10 – 26.3

What it does

The map fills in automatically as chunks are seen, unlike paper maps that have to be made by hand. It works in single-player, multiplayer and on Realms, and several maps can be kept for one server address and switched by hand or automatically. Cave dimensions such as the Nether are supported, and an optional mode makes the map look like vanilla paper maps.

Installing it on the server is optional and adds features such as world identification. With Open Parties and Claims, the map shows claims and allies and lets players claim or forceload chunks from the map. Fabric API is required on Fabric, and the license is All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Self-writing map

    Explored terrain is drawn onto a full-screen map automatically, with no items to craft.

  2. Multiple maps per server

    Separate maps can exist for one server address, with optional automatic world detection.

  3. Claims on the map

    Chunk claims and allied players from Open Parties and Claims appear on the map and can be managed there.

  4. Resource pack colors

    The map follows the active resource pack; switching packs regenerates the map in the new colors.

What the author says

Xaero's World Map mod adds a self-writing fullscreen map to your Minecraft client. Works as a separate mod but is a lot better with Xaero's Minimap. The reason why it's available separately is to keep Xaero's Minimap as light-weight as possible. This mod is mostly client-sided. Installing it on the server side is…
