Xaero's Minimap is a free Minecraft Java mod that places a view of nearby terrain and entities in a screen corner. It can display players, mobs and items as dots or icons, in a rotating square or circle that can be locked in place. Waypoints mark locations on the minimap and in the game world, with optional teleportation. Cave mode shows blocks above and below ground. The maker offers full and fair-play editions; the latter is designed for fair PVP and multiplayer server rules. Forge, Quilt and Fabric are listed as supported loaders, and the listed game versions include 1.20, 1.19.4, 1.18.2, 1.17.1, 1.16.5 and 1.15.2. The mod is mostly client-sided, with optional server installation for additions such as world identification. It can work with Xaero's World Map and use that mod's generated map textures; it also displays claims and allies from Open Parties and Claims. The product page lists its license as All Rights Reserved.
