BEST MINIMAP for Minecraft? (Journey Map vs Xaero's Minimap)

How to see other players in the xaeros world map?

How to see other players in the xaeros world map?

I like journey map just because it has that grid like feature which just intrigues me a lot but both are good

I have used Journey map for a long time in single player and on multiplayer. I like that in Journey Map, when you go underground (in caves), it shows the cave layout, were in xaero's map/world or mini it is VERY hard to find this setting and it only works in the minimap mode, you can, in journey map, click on 'M' for MAP when in cave and it will show you the cave level/layout you are in. I have not found a way to do this in the world map mode in xaero's world map. if anyone knows how this is 'enabled/turned on', I would be very thankful.
Ayesel, nice video comparison, but, could you do a more 'IN DEPTH' settings video for Xaero's mini map AND world map. Thanks in advance.

Do you know if there is a map mod that doesn't map vanilla map useless ?

xaero's map mods are much clean looking and better. i have used both of em for more than 1 year and xaero's is much better in my opinion

im using it for iceboat racing so i chose journy map just because of the way it looks and feels but if it doesn't work as well ill get xearo's i like them both tho

bro forgot voxel map

is there a way to install xaero's minimap on lunar client? (since you can see players on xaero's)
can you modify the lunar client minimap so you can see players in your minimap?

IM playing with Xaero map on vanilla server but i have issue .
When i rejoinin the map just clearing every chunk i loaded just clears and i need to load it again flying so much hours (

In the past, I would have stuck with Journey after using it for years. But now that I know Xaero's can go circular, add mob icons, ...it reveals terrain without delay. Clear text. Easy choice.

Trol.

I hate journey map just cuz when i create solo world and get trash spawn and leave world to delete and create new one it just gives me same shit

What version of Minecraft do these work on

Recently I got the Exit-Code: -1 when I try to join a world or server. This happened from one day to another. I got the newest Fabric and Fabric API version.

The Error: java.lang.RuntimeException: java.nio.file.AccessDeniedException: C:\Users\Yello\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\XaeroWaypoints_BACKUP032021

xaero96's answer: Your operating system is denying the game access to C:\Users\Yello\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\XaeroWaypoints\backup

soooo how do I fix that xD?

if you use this mod can u still get achievements?

It’s work on playstaion edition?

Trash video. At the start you say " This video will be a final answer what mod is better" at the end you say " Nah can't decide you pick" . Don't make videos dude

Hello, how should I zoom the minimap completely??

You can say you're not going to tell us at the beginning and avoid wasting time

one thing i have seen with xaeros minimap is that the yellow dots mean both hostile and passive mobs and the red dots mean items that are floating on the ground

How do I put the option to show the head of the entity in Xearo’s map and how do I see everything in the map?

xearo is obviously better, the only reason you didnt say it in the video is cause you know that but you prefer journey but you dont want to be hit with the negative backlash

NOTE: Translated from Spanish to English.

Journey map
Some translations are missing, but it's not very important
If it was already difficult to see the waypoints, if you put shaders on it, it will still be much more.
You need a block in the middle, since directly viewing the Waypoint will not show the text of the waypoint or the beacon.

Xaeros - World Map
It does not have the Spanish language but it can be created.
(There is a folder with languages and it's just copy and paste)
... But there is a lot to translate :/ .. 203 lines
It is not 100% translated either
The buttons on the right are not very visible
It looks smoother and loads the map and mini-map better
I wish you had more information in the mod settings.
I find it curious that it can show the route that you have done 30 seconds ago or so.
(I don't use it, I have good orientation)
It saves the waypoints per world (I think Journey Map doesn't since every time I create a world I have the waypoints of other worlds).
It has a quite useful Waypoints search engine/filter.
I like the animation when entering the world map
I like to see the chunks with the mouse instead of messing up the map with so much line like in Journey Map
I would like to put information on top of the mini-map and not just below

In Journey map you can:
I would like to increase the size of the coordinates (North, South, East and West)
I would like to choose how far I should zoom in for the Temporary or Death Waypoint to disappear. I usually like 25 meters

SUMMARY.
─── Journey Map ─────
▼ Mini-Map
• It allows me to put North South, etc. larger
• I really like the Entity and player points.
(Knowing where the mobs and the player's arrow are looking and indicating with an up or down arrow depending on whether it is above the Y or below the player's Y)
▼Waypoints
• They are hardly seen with shaders.
• It's easy to create them from the big map and it saves you assigning a key to use the key in another mod
▼ World map
• Allows you to quickly create waypoints

─── Xaero's ─────
▼ Mini-Map
• It is difficult to know where the mob is:
If you set it to be seen little as it is below, the icon will not be seen at all.
You have the option of putting a number to know how tall she is, but the letter is either too big and annoying or too small and doesn't look good.
You don't know where the mobs are looking, it's just dots or the 2D faces of the mobs.
You can enlarge the map without having to enter the world map

▼Waypoints
• I really like how the waypoints look.
• You cannot customize the distance at which the waypoint should disappear when you get close to it (Death or Temporary Waypoint).
(You need to get really close and in Journey Map I can set it to disappear at 25 meters)
• Works perfectly with Shaders! (Sildurs Vibrant)
• It is better to have a key to create waypoints.
Either you click on the map and then edit the Waypoint to adjust the Y well or you must make a few clicks.
The logical thing is to use the shortcut key to the Waypoints, which is the best, but it takes 1 key.
• I like better how it organizes the waypoints according to the map and the dimension.
▼ World map
• You can quickly search for Waypoints in a list at the bottom right
• I really like the zoom effect when entering the map and the visual style of the waypoint.
• The buttons don't look very good
(But you won't use them much either... and if you do, you just have to remember the location since there are few buttons)

CONCLUSION:
I really like Xaero's but I prefer Journey Map.
Because I use the minimap a lot and know what mobs are around me, and in that, the best is Joyrney Map.
I'll have to adapt to the Waypoints since they don't look very good with shaders, but I rarely use them.
(If not, I install a separate mod)

If you use Waypoints a lot, I highly recommend Xaero's
If you like to explore, I also recommend Xaero's for being able to quickly zoom in on the mini-map
If you use the mini-map a lot to fight, the best is Journey Map, because it knows where the mobs are looking and it is easy to know if they are above or below (But it does not include knowing the Y of the mob).

Note: In Journey Map and Xaero's MiniMap you can activate the information that tells you how much light there is in the block you are on.

Thank you for your help😊

JM has the issue of dont show map when you are playig in LAN?

When my Gf join my game Xaero doestnt show to her the world map of the new server just the original

Example playing ONEBLOCK but showing a survival map

Hey my journeyman mod won't show in mods folder do you know why

When you try to compare a mod by the number of downloads
You're screwing up
Example:
supplementary & moonlit lib have millions of updates, almost weekly
Telling me that it's poorly developed
and
is the reason for the high download count
Making garbage look popular

What texture pack are you using?

Journey map

I like to see a mods for cave Mini map to see where they are 🤔

you are handicapated

There both the same thing. Just different UI

Can I use this mod in MCPE?

Journeymap is literally so much better

i have duel screen... could i put this on one screen and my game on the other

After watching your video and after careful deliberation, I have decided that I am in fact going to use one of these mods

I just tested and both do their job well. In terms of performance, Xaero's beats it by far by losing many fps

which one gives the most fps? like doesn't decrease alot

Does IT work on aternos servere?

Xaero's wins hands down for me. If I see JourneyMap in a pack, it immediately gets deleted and replaced with Xaero's.

In terms of performance, JM is so slow that it fails to map 10 render distance even while walking in a straight line, where Xaero's can keep up with elytra flight at much higher distances without even breaking a sweat. Doing that on JM results in a minimap where the only mapped areas look like small holes in a giant slice of swiss cheese. Tweaking the advanced settings to run the mapper more often doesn't help either. That just results in even more stuttering and lag spikes. Xaero's just works butter smooth out of the box with no tweaks required.

The biggest thing besides performance is that Xaero's is actively maintained (with both bugfixes as well as new features) all the way back to 1.7.10 (yep, not kidding, the most recent 1.7.10 release was 2 days ago as of this comment). JourneyMap's last 1.7.10 update came out in January 2017, and rarely ever gets updates and bugfixes outside of the most recent few MC versions, if at all.

I cant teleport to waypoints with the xearos

On Xaero's World Map I miss cave mode on full screen map. It is visible on minimap, but not world map. It's sad cuz It would really help me

Thank you, this was very helpful!

how do you open de map on xearos?

i prefer the journey-map for the "automap-missing" but i also like the teleport whit "T" don't need to set up a waypoint first but usually il for the journey
