1.14, 1.16, 1.17, 1.18, 1.19 versions are for Fabric. (Fabric API is technically not required, but you'll want something to load the translation files for the tooltip.)
Vanilla maps are great and all, but they only ever update when you actually hold the map. It's easy to forget to look at the map when you want to update it, and having to lug a map around in place of something more useful like a shield while you explore, is pretty inconvenient.
And that's what this mod changes. Crowmap just makes maps update as long as they're anywhere in your inventory, fixing those problems. Tada.
Crowmap also adds a small tooltip, just to inform you that the mod is present and a bit about what it does. It doesn't appear unless you shift.
Why's it called Crowmap? Well, it was made for /u/Crowfooted after this reddit thread brought up the idea.
This mod is free software. Yes, that means you can put it in your modpack.

is this vanilla server friendly?
Example, i go onto a random server making a map art and i bring all my maps with me- will it update?
Good question. The mod doesn't do anything to maps if you install it client-side only.
Uhh - but I think it will still show a "maps auto-update :)" tooltip on the map item? That's not a good look, I should fix that.
(These days you can also lock vanilla maps to prevent them from updating at all, which might be a good idea if you have map art btw. This mod also doesn't do anything to locked maps. Pretty sure.)
In reply to quat1024:
yea i put the maps up on item frames while making the art and it didnt update but some older mapart pre-lockable maps werent showing up due to the maker getting rid of it for resources.
Updated! NICE!
This mod saved my map!!

Does the 1.14 version work for 1.14.4?
i think so
In reply to quat1024:
Thanks!
thanks quat
Thanks for the 1.16 update! You're a beast @quat1024!

Can you please update the game version at the top? Next to the title to Fabric if you do not plan on updating forge? This seems rather confusing that you decided to build your mod on Forge for 1.12 then swapped to Fabric on 1.14. Sorry, but its a good mod, just some bad choices here
Yeah I agree, Forge did make some bad choices rewriting for 1.14.
In reply to quat1024:
I know it's been a few month, but what choices specifically?
Not planning to argue or anything, but genuenly want to know.
Thank you in advance.
Do you plan to update for forge?
No.
Is this server side only?
I think both the 1.12 and 1.14 versions might work server-side only, but I don't know how to actually make a mod be optional on the client :|

In reply to DDZiroWan:
If you test this server-side only could you please update here and let us know if it does?
Nice, thank you. Any chance you would consider implementing a folder to hold maps (like an atlas) sort of like an improved version of bibliocrafts one?
