Xaero’s Minimap Mod

Making a map in Minecraft can be a tough prospect, especially when you’re just starting off in a new world and it is one of the items you desperately need. That’s a brutal kind of irony when you think about it, but thankfully there are some mods that can alleviate the grief of getting lost in your hundredth new world, or whatever the number might be. Xaero’s Minimap mod gives players a miniature map with a bird’s eye view of their current location and their immediate surroundings. It is essentially the exact same minimap system from the Better PVP Mod, only as a standalone feature.

This is great news for players who have been banned from online servers for using the Better PVP Mod and it is good news even for the ones who haven’t because it gives a reliable, easy-to-read map which is always present. The location of the map can be moved to various corners of the screen, and it works both above and below ground level, seamlessly switching from a surface view to a cave view. Mobs will show up as yellow dots, players as white, usable items as red and other things like picture frames and arrows will appear as purple dots. Xaero’s Minimap mod could be the best map mod in Minecraft today.

I have forge and yes I have put it in the MODS folder but when I try to teleport to a waypoint it says that there is and invalid UUID is in the invalid format of something HELP (i have a mac)

im so happy i found this cuz since zan’s minimap isnt for 1.8 im now using this for 1.8 so i can move away of my home without losing my home

I know what most of the dots on the minimap mean but there are black dots that move really quickly and I can’t figure out what they are. I look at the minimap options and there isn’t anything set to show up as a black dot. What do they represent?

Does definitively not work under Minecraft 1.9. Only upcounting the Version number on this web site ist not what the community wants dear developers!

I had the white screen till i tried forge 1.8-11.14.0.1260-1.8, I don’t remember where i found it at but aside from the evil white screen either sophisticated wolves is making random things to craft for me or the map is.

Is anyone else’s gave crashing everytime they begin to fight a Blaze or a Ghast? I am using the most recent version, I hope this gets fixed in the next one! Love all of the Xaero’s minimap mods(outside of the nether, haha) keep up the good work.

I’m having trouble getting this to work. I dragged the mod into the “Mods” folder & haven’t got it..

make sure your minecraft, your forge and your the mod that you are trying to download are the same version i made that mistake last time.. and make sure u actually have forge…
