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.
The mod is still in development! Please report any bugs that you encounter or otherwise they probably won't get fixed.
Features:
- Self-writing world map (as opposed to manual paper maps). Different for every world/dimension/server.
- Works in Singleplayer, Multiplayer and on Realms.
- Intuitive interface. Open by pressing M. Move the map around with your mouse and zoom in/out using the mouse wheel, similar to Google Maps.
- Automatic MultiWorld / Lilypadded etc servers support.
- Minecraft Realms support (also with MultiWorld support).
- Texture Pack support. Changing the texture packs updates the whole world map.
- Cave dimensions support (for example Nether).
- Vanilla maps mode. Makes the world map look like vanilla paper maps.
- Terrain texture customization.
- "Footsteps" showing your most recent path.
- Optional performance boosters. Although in most cases the mod performs great even without them.
- Xaero's Minimap integration. The minimap mod will display chunks loaded by the world map. The world map mod will display waypoints from the Xaero's Minimap. Also works with Better PVP mod. You can edit and teleport to the waypoints without leaving the map interface.
- Off-screen waypoint menu that can be opened on the map GUI by placing the mouse cursor in the bottom-right corner of the screen. Selecting a waypoint from the menu with the mouse scroll wheel and clicking the right mouse button will quickly move the map view to the selected waypoint to speed-up map scrolling.
You can also start typing a part of a waypoint's name to filter out unwanted waypoints. Pressing ENTER will restart the search.
You are allowed to make videos using this mod. Using it in your modpacks is ALLOWED as long as a link to one of my mod pages is provided and you do not profit from it (Curse modpacks are OK though).

hey how do i mark things on the world map?
Can you add right click to teleport to cursor like voxelmap had? And maybe also to be able to set waypoints this way?
In reply to VL4DST3R:
I'll probably add this in the next major update (mod version 1.5).
I have big plans for the update (subject to change) so I'm not sure how soon it's going to be released.
In reply to xaero96:
I feel kinda bad coming here and saying this but Voxelmap just updated and i prefer its features over this one just so i will return to that one. Thanks for making this though, it's a good mod on its own.
In reply to VL4DST3R:
Alright, thanks!
This mod does not seem to be working for me. How resource-intensive is it? I have to allocate 75% of my RAM (3 of 4 GB) to run 100 other mods in 1.12.2, and if it's going to take more than 5 minutes to show the map after pressing [M], it's useless to me.
In reply to justanothermodenthusiast9:
It's not that resource-intensive at all. Does anything happen when you press M? If nothing at all, check if there's another mod using the M key in the controls menu. You can change the key bindings to anything.
In reply to xaero96:
Aside from the mouse cursor appearing and everything in the game stopping, nothing at all. When I press [M] to exit map mode, everything resumes as though nothing ever happened.
In reply to justanothermodenthusiast9:
That's not normal. Can you send me a screenshot?
EDIT: It would be ideal if you could put all your mods in a zip file and send it to me via PM. That way I should be able to fix it a lot faster.
In reply to xaero96:
Sure thing, just give me a few minutes.
In reply to justanothermodenthusiast9:
You replied so quickly that I'm not sure you saw my edit, so check it please if so.
In reply to xaero96:
Oh shit, sorry lol. I'll do that.
EDIT: How do I put the .zip in the message?
Is it possible to change the dedicated key to open the map? I have another mod (Millenaire) that uses the same key as this mod, and I was unable to use the map as a result.
EDIT: Upon posting this comment, I've only just realized that the controls setting on Minecraft itself exists. Sorry for disturbing you. Great mod, by the way! Definitely helped with my RPG-like playthrough.

Thank you :)
IS there any way to set map data and waypoint data to be "any IP/port" ?
In reply to LordPhrozen:
Yes, by using a domain name. You can get one for free, for example no-ip.
In reply to xaero96:
That doesn't specifically help us. For example we have both US, and German servers. They have vastly different IP addresses. Does the map mod do ReverseDNS lookups? Otherwise I'm not sure how this would function.
Can you elaborate?
To clarify, players cant modify the world. so world data across all servers is the same.
In reply to LordPhrozen:
The mod doesn't do any ReverseDNS lookups. It takes the address that the players are connected to. So if the players don't connect to the IP address directly, then there shouldn't be any problems with multiple IPs. If the player types something different in the address bar, then the mod also sees it as a different server.
In reply to xaero96:
So if the player connected to butts.kermit.comon port 12313 for the US server, and Kringle.pancakes.net on port 5654, they would... share map data?
forgive me if im skeptical here.
if you're saying they both need to share the same domain name, thats... not gonna work...
In reply to LordPhrozen:
No they wouldn't share the same map data. My previous reply explains why: "If the player types something different in the address bar, then the mod also sees it as a different server." It seems that you're assuming that I know things about your situation before you tell them to me. I'm just telling you how the mod works, I never claimed that I have the solution to your problem, which you haven't even explained properly.
A lot of servers nowadays have sub-servers (minigame servers for example) that players can connect to while the server address looks the same for Minecraft and for my mods, which is probably what you need to try to implement instead of using multiple domain names.
A domain name fixes the issue of a changing IP address of the server, which is what a lot of people have. That's why I suggested it to you initially. That was before you told me anything.
EDIT: Perhaps this caused the misunderstanding: "So if the players don't connect to the IP address directly, then there shouldn't be any problems with multiple IPs."? Maybe I could've worded it better, sorry for that.
