Description
🎨 Map Painter — Draw on Maps
Turn any Minecraft map into your canvas. Place a Map Drawing Table, pop in a map, and start sketching directly onto it — with adjustable brush sizes and scalable text.
Forge • Minecraft 1.20.1
✨ Features
- Map Drawing Table — a new custom block that opens an in-world map editor GUI.
- Adjustable brush size — cycle between 1px / 2px / 3px / 5px strokes to get exactly the line weight you want.
- Scalable text tool — cycle between x1 / x2 / x3 text scale when labeling your maps.
- Reliable map loading — full map pixel data now syncs to the client the moment the GUI opens, so your map is ready instantly instead of loading forever.
- Custom textured block — a properly modeled and textured Map Drawing Table with correct item/block models, so it looks right in-hand, in the inventory, and in the world.
📦 Installation
- Make sure you have Forge installed for Minecraft 1.20.1.
- Download the mod JAR from the Files tab (or
build/libs/if building from source). - Drop the JAR into your
mods/folder. - Launch Minecraft with the Forge profile and enjoy!
