Language support added! Help Translate
Yes it works in MP stop asking

If you don't want to use Modloader, don't download the Modloader Version. Just click Download Mod to get the No Modloader Required version.

If you are having a problem: tell me which version you are using and either post a crashlog, or try it with a fresh jar and no other mods, or both. If you don't give me any useful info in your report, I'm not going to waste my time trying to drag it out of you.

Texture pack support for mob icons

New Stuff

Forge block support
Language support. See mamiyaotaru/lang folder for examples (Lots of languages, but not all yet. please help out!)
Now responds instantly to block placement and block destroy with no performance hit
shows flowers, fences, flames, pistons, beds, enchanting tables and other things that aren't cubes
glass domes and things also visible
accurate colored lighting (also reacts to nightvision potions!)
smooth movement: the map no longer moves one coordinate at a time even when each coordinate is represented by 8 pixels. When zoomed in, you can see your position within a block
real time mob tracking. Mob position updates instantly.
optionally show correct helmet on player icons in MP (or blocks on their head)

also

square map texture taken from current texture pack
custom texture pack water biome shading (for packs that support it, ie have a watercolorx.png).
better CTM support
biome tinting for stone, gravel etc as provided by texture pack and patcher
coordinate display tweaks

Zan's minimap is a rather famous minimap mod created by Zaneris. When he stopped maintaining it, he handed it over to Lahwran. Lahwran has stopped maintaining his mods as well, and has given me permission to continue Zan's.

I've been involved with it for a while; I coded the nethermapping algorithm, squaremap waypoints, and nether/overworld waypoint synchronization. (all of that was before Rei's minimap was ever initially posted, for those who are wondering. Go ahead and check the dates!)

Why bother, when Rei's minimap exists and is great? For me, it is the availability and relative simplicity of the codebase, which lets me muck around and change things.

For the user: well, maybe they just like Zan's :) This is also compatible with my Aliens Motion Tracker mod (on hold until I figure out how / if to integrate it with the new menu etc. Not really needed now that radar mode is in Zan's itself) and Retro Sun Direction mod. Install any of them in any order.

With the new "Old North" toggle (bring up the menu with M) you can choose to have the map display North to match how the sun moves in Minecraft Final (default), or to match how the sun used to move back in Beta (if you have old maps, and don't like how everything turned 90 degrees). If you also install the Retro Sun Direction mod, the "Old North" menu option will also toggle which direction the sun moves to match up with the map.

Install instructions in the zip (readme.txt). Standard version does not use Modloader. Works fine with Magic Launcher and MCPatcher. For 1.5.2 (regular) and 1.5.1 (modloader/forge)

Modloader version is optional, and uses modloader like any modloader mod

Mod compatibility that I know of:

Optifine: yeah. Biome shading is a *tiny* bit slower than it is with MCPatcher
AdvancedHUD works if and only if you use the Modloader Version of the minimap.
MCPatcher yes
Zombe yes.
Forge yes (including support for blocks added by Forge mods)

**Texture Packs**

Also, since there seems to be some confusion, this mod has and always has had texture pack support. Files with the right name in the right directory in a texture pack will override the ones that come with the mod. For those two people who want to, you can totally theme the mod to match your texture pack and distribute your custom files inside your texture pack if you want. Example: picture. (pack and map: Bladecraft. custom map image: Lithia)

Note: Showing last 25 of 82 logs.

Update #82 : 05/19/2013 3:02:53 pm5/19/13

Custom Forge armor types will show on the minimap now (like steelleaf or ironwood from Twilight Forest)

Squaremap border image customizable now. In the images folder, include a squaremap.png. If there is none, it will be constructed from the texture pack's map item as before. There's an example in there now with a .png.moo extension. Change to just .png to use

Fixed alignments of the waypoint and waypoint dimension lists

new language:
Hungarian, by waltzer

Update #81 : 05/08/2013 2:28:24 pm5/08/13

fixed for rebound controls not being applied on client restart (they formerly had to be rebound each time minecraft was started to take effect. this is fixed. Just do it once :) )

languages updated:
Chinese (simplified)
Polish (updated by krysztal)
Dutch (updated by killerboye)

Update #79 : 05/02/2013 2:28:44 pm5/02/13

non modloader/forge version updated to 1.5.2

waypoint signs now disappear when GUI is hidden (f1).Â Better handling of when to display the map (more consistent with the rest of the GUI)

better support for voxelmodpack's fullbright

added language:
Norwegian - Nynorsk, by tynnoel99

updates to language support for French, Norwegian - BokmÃÂ¥l, Brazilian Portuguese and Latin American Spanish

Update #80 : 05/02/2013 1:56:31 am5/02/13

modloader/forge version for 1.5.2 finished

Update #78 : 04/15/2013 12:23:39 am4/15/13

added 3 way death point toggle: off, most recent, and all. Takes effect on next death

Also slider for max distance to display in game waypoint signs (not beacons). from 50-10000 or infinite.

Update #77 : 04/11/2013 5:37:39 pm4/11/13

support for CTM feature added, where a block can have a different *texture* per biome (this is different from biome tinting). This feature is used, among other places, on Westeroscraft to have the same roofing material look different in different biomes (compare the Twins vs Bandallon).

Also ignore CTM features if neither HDPatcher nor Optifine is installed, so what is seen on the map reflects what the user sees in world

Update #76 : 04/10/2013 6:12:48 pm4/10/13

Chinese support added. As one of the most widely used languages in the world, felt that was worth an update :)

Added languages:
Chinese, Simplified (Mainland China) by pangys
Chinese, traditional (Taiwan) by unoya
Italian, by Sporadicamente

Update #75 : 03/26/2013 6:15:48 pm3/26/13

Fix for black areas appearing on the map when walking around on servers with low view distance

updated to new VoxelPlayer API (only affects connecting to the VoxelBox with VoxelPlayer mod installed)

new language:
Japanese, by Ravenclaw572

Update #74 : 03/23/2013 2:09:34 pm3/23/13

fix for texture packs that include insane blockID + metadata settings (could cause CTM, then radar to fail)

new language:
Turkish, by agenc99

Update #73 : 03/22/2013 5:10:26 pm3/22/13

modloader/forge version at 1.5.1

"Hide Radar" option renamed (and inverted) to "Radar" which is either on or off. Too many people couldn't seem to figure out that "Hide Radar" meant radar off, so they'd turn on everything in that submenu (including Hide Radar) and were posting bug reports that the radar wasn't showing. Now everything on means go. If radar is off, the other buttons are dimmed out. Should make things a bit clearer

new language:
Dutch, by Typhlosionboy

Update #72 : 03/21/2013 3:03:20 pm3/21/13

updated non modloader version to 1.5.1. Modloader version will come when modloader updates

Update #71 : 03/20/2013 9:41:46 pm3/20/13

GUI for choosing which dimensions a waypoint shows in. By default, only the dimension you are currently in. Exception: overworld and nether waypoints show up in both nether and overworld by default (useful for aligning portals). But when creating or editing a waypoint, one can change that.

Waypoints can be made to apply to only the current dimension, up to all of them. (click the check / X marks, or doubleclick the dimension name)

Update #70 : 03/19/2013 12:00:39 pm3/19/13

fixed bug with loading unzipped (just in a folder) texture pack. CTM was failing, so it never got to icons. (Zipped texture packs were unaffected)
new languages:
Brazilian Portuguese, Spanish (Argentina, Venezuela, Uruguay, Mexico) by farenheirh
Danish, by Xyoin

Update #69 : 03/16/2013 12:59:11 pm3/16/13

added Russian translation. Thanks Scarlet pangolin!
Fixed Norwegian (minecraft 1.5 changes from nb_NO to no_NO)
switched encodings of all lang files to UTF-8 (no hacks needed to display special characters correctly)

Update #68 : 03/15/2013 5:56:58 pm3/15/13

fix for console spam when editing/adding waypoint. fixed deathpoints in nether
Spanish translation added. Thanks elespontaneo !

Update #67 : 03/14/2013 12:34:13 pm3/14/13

1.5 now modloader ready

Update #66 : 03/13/2013 11:31:43 am3/13/13

regular version updated to 1.5. Modloader version to come later

Update #65 : 03/11/2013 5:11:57 pm3/11/13

custom texture pack biome coloring works with optifine too now (it takes 40 times the code that it does with MCPatcher. Thanks optifine!)

Update #64 : 03/02/2013 3:09:16 am3/02/13

fix for lighting desynchronization bug when exiting the nether in multiplayer

added French translation by Thegajout
added Norwegian translation by tynnoel99

Update #63 : 03/01/2013 2:51:22 pm3/01/13

fix performance regression with lighting in nether and at sunset/sunrise (should be faster now in those times/places)

Update #62 : 02/28/2013 8:56:03 am2/28/13

light overhauled. Colors are now correct (blueish moonlight, yellowish torchlight). Reacts to nightvision potions too

if helmets are on, player icons will show any blocks they are wearing on their head (pumpkin, cloth blocks on some PvP servers, whatever), or skulls

transparent ice

squaremap frame image retains its transparent bits on the edges

new roundmap image

including some example custom icons (for Twilight Forest). Other mods can be supported the same way, either by mod makers, texture pack makers, or users. Don't ask me to make icons for every blooming mod myself :)

Update #61 : 02/20/2013 9:35:38 pm2/20/13

modloader version should play nicer with AdvancedHUD or whatever other modloader mods.

added chunk grid and biome overlay

Added support for custom icons for mobs from other mods (for EntityNewMob.class, add an EntityNewMob.png to your mod's /mob/icons folder - create folder as needed)

Update #60 : 02/11/2013 11:00:17 am2/11/13

Support for blocks from Forge mods

fix for translated (including to English) strings occasionally not showing up. Added Swedish translation (thanks johnbohn)

Smoother scrolling at fast speeds.

Fixed glitch at edge of map when traveling 2 or more blocks in one tick (fast flight mods)

fix for hidef skins

Update #59 : 02/07/2013 3:52:09 pm2/07/13

Language support! Currently only en_US, de_DE and pl_PL translations included, but I will include more if anyone makes them. Look in mamiyaotaru/lang folder for template

fullscreen map now toggled instead of cycled through with zoom button (new configurable key for that)

icons can optionally have a black outline (see radar menu)

Update #58 : 02/06/2013 8:55:15 pm2/06/13

overhauled block transparency. Glass domes and such show now.

Fixed squaremap direction arrow showing when map was hidden.

Fixed odd sized mob skins causing icons to be the wrong size

Show underwater trees (they happen sometimes!)
