Xaero’s Minimap is a unique mod designed to seamlessly integrate into Minecraft while maintaining its vanilla aesthetic. As the first rotating square minimap for the game, it offers a wide range of features to enhance navigation and exploration. The minimap can be customized in shape (square or circle), size, and zoom level, ensuring it fits perfectly with your gameplay style. It also supports waypoints, which are visible both on the minimap and in the game world, allowing for precise navigation to specific coordinates or previously visited locations. The addition of local and global waypoints, waypoint sets, and deathpoints ensures efficient organization and easy tracking of important spots.
The mod further stands out with its entity radar, displaying players, mobs, and items with customizable icons or dots, as well as cave mode, which reveals underground blocks and structures. It includes numerous advanced features such as togglable chunk grids, slime chunk indicators, custom light overlays, and multi-world detection for multiplayer servers. Whether you’re exploring, building, or engaging in PvP, Xaero’s Minimap enhances your experience with intuitive controls and extensive customization options. It is available in two editions—full and fair-play—to cater to both casual and competitive players, ensuring a balanced and enjoyable addition to Minecraft.
