How to create a Minecraft map maps, cartography tables, and maps of explorers explained
- - - - -
Want to learn more about Maps in Minecraft. Every Minecraft adventurer should have maps. Maps can aid you in navigating the world, whether you're exploring new caves or leaving your castle behind. They were pretty limited in scope for some time, but the introduction of the Cartography Table has made them an extremely useful resource.
We've provided instructions on how to make a map in Minecraft. Also, how to make use of cartography tablets. We'll also discuss the two types of maps in Minecraft, and third-party mapping tools, if you are interested in.
How to make a Minecraft map
The method for making maps in Minecraft is different in Java Edition and Bedrock Edition. In Java, you can make a Minecraft map by surrounding the Compass with 8 sheets of paper on the Crafting Table. You'll require 9 pieces of paper for Bedrock. One for each tile in the Crafting Table window.
To begin with the map will be blank. Simply click right-click on the map to make it active and ready to explore. This will place your current location as the center of the map.
In Java the inclusion of the Compass in the map recipe means that you'll always be able to view your current location as an indicator on the map. In Bedrock you'll have to combine the Map with an Compass in an Anvil to get this feature.
It's an excellent way to discover your Minecraft surroundings and make maps. Every Minecraft world seed is unique, and each is a unique experience that offers new discoveries and unexpected surprises.
How to mark a map
You can mark a point on a map using a gesture with a Banner that has been placed anywhere in the world, and holding the map in your hand at the time. The marker will be colored in the same way as the Banner, indicating the position of the Banner on the map.
If the Banner is destroyed, the marker will remain until you re-explore the area in the world. The map will be updated and the marker will be removed.
How to make and use a Cartography Table
A Cartography Table can enhance maps in Minecraft. You can build Cartography Tables by creating a Cartography Table by placing two pieces of paper on the top of a grid made of Wooden Planks 2x2 in a Crafting Table.
The following results can be achieved by combining the following elements and your Cartography Table map.
- Map + Paper: Zoom out an existing map. - Map + Blank Map: Clone an existing map. Map + Blank Map: Lock a map that prevents further exploration.
It is clear the reasons why you may need to zoom or clone a map. Locking a map and preventing further exploration is useful for various reasons however one of the most common uses is for creating maps of adventure and other special scenarios on Minecraft servers and the like.
Map zoom levels
A default Minecraft map is a square of 128x128 blocks. You can zoom out the map using a Cartography Table a maximum of 4 times, expanding the area to 256x256blocks, 512x512 1024x1024, 2048x2048 blocks respectively.
On a default map the map's source (your position at the time you activated the map) is located in the center of the map, however when zoomed maps are used, the origin will be located in the upper-left corner.
What exactly are Explorer maps?
Explorer Maps are distinct types of maps which work differently from regular maps. Explorer Maps are used to show areas that have the rarest kind of structure, such as the Buried Treasure or the Woodland Mansion or an Ocean Monument. A symbol will indicate the location of the rare structure on the map.
Explorer Maps can't be made. To obtain one, you have to trade Emeralds and a Compass with the Cartography Villager (or, in the case of Buried Treasure Maps, you have to find them in Shipwrecks and underwater Ruins).
Explorer Maps are often able to show areas that are not visible to the user. However you'll always see the player marker to help find your location relative to the map. If you're outside the boundaries of the map, the marker will be small and appear somewhere along the map's border. As you approach the map boundary, the marker will become larger. Once you've reached the boundary of the map, you can begin to explore the area and complete the map as normal maps.
Using a Minecraft map viewer
Map items and Cartography Tables will allow you to keep within the confines of Survival Minecraft. If you're not afraid to use third-party tools you might want to consider an online Minecraft map viewer to gain a better perspective of the world.
Currently the best map viewer available is the Chunk Base Seed Map webpage. Simply enter your Minecraft version number and your seed to view all blocks at the spawn point.
There are also numerous Minecraft mods out there which add minimaps as well as full-screen maps to the game, much like other games come with by default. Spartan16 JourneyMap is the most popular mod of this kind. It provides an extremely powerful map tool that can be used in-game or in a web browser. It tracks your location and allows for exploration in real-time.
It is a tedious, but very satisfying and enjoyable job to map the Minecraft world. If you're looking to enhance the way your Minecraft world appear more vivid both on paper and screen, be sure to look over our guide to the top Minecraft shaders and top Minecraft texture packs. You might also want to hear about the changes to the world generation which are coming with the Minecraft 1.18 update.
