EzWaypoints is a free, open-source Fabric mod for Minecraft Java Edition that adds labeled waypoints without a minimap. It runs client-side, so the server does not need the mod installed, and supports Minecraft Java Edition versions 1.21.8 through 1.21.11. Its in-game manager lets players create, change, remove, and browse saved waypoints. Separate profiles keep locations distinct for each multiplayer server and singleplayer world, even if worlds share a name. Players can adjust label color and size, optionally show the Y coordinate, and link Overworld and Nether visibility by scaling X and Z coordinates by eight. Waypoints can be exported as share codes; importing skips entries that match an existing waypoint’s name, color, dimension, and coordinates. A teleport button appears only when the server offers `/tp` or `/teleport` and the player has permission. Data is stored locally in `config/ezwaypoints/ezwaypoints.json`. Installation requires Fabric Loader, the matching Fabric API, and the matching mod jar in the instance’s mods folder.
Who it is for
It suits Minecraft Java players who want in-world waypoint labels without installing a minimap. The maker positions it for players who prefer a focused set of waypoint tools over extra features.
