CrowMap
A Fabric client-side mod for Minecraft 1.21.11 that embeds a browser directly in-game, with an in-world map projection, and HUD minimap.
Built on the amazing owo-lib and a forked version of MCEF!
Features
Browser
Opens a full-screen browser pointed at a configurable Dynmap URL (defaults to the Horizon's End Dynmap).
Right-clicking in the browser screen opens a context menu with options to jump to the map coordinates under the cursor via the /jump <x> <y> and /fleet jump <x> <y> commands.
World Projection
Renders the browser texture as a flat panel in the world, anchored to a configurable position and facing direction. The projection can be repositioned at any time and is automatically repositioned when its anchor sign is found nearby.
To anchor the projection to a sign, place a sign containing the anchor text (default: [CrowMap]) and press the Place World Map keybind while standing near it. The projection will follow the sign's position and facing direction.
HUD Minimap
Renders the browser texture as a small minimap in a configurable corner of the screen. Size, margin, and corner are all configurable in the config.
Local LiveAtlas Instance
When enabled, CrowMap downloads LiveAtlas (better Dynmap) and hosts it locally on a random loopback port.
Disabled by default, accessible from the config menu. Performance should be fine, but better be safe than sorry!
System Map Overlay
Displays a full-screen image (textures/system_map.png in the mod's resource pack) centered and scaled to fit the screen.
Supports hold mode (visible while the key is held) or toggle mode (press to show, press again to hide)- hold and toggle mode can be changed in the mod config.
IT IS POSSIBLE TO OVERRIDE THE IMAGE!
Just like Minecraft's default assets can be overridden by using the minecraft: namespace, CrowMap's assets can be overriden with the crowmap: namespace!
Appending a crowmap/textures/system_map.png (yes it has to be a .png) to your locally downloaded
ResourcePack will allow you change the image to literally anything you want- wether that's a really dumb image or an updated map is up to you.
Keybinds
All binds are in the CrowMap category in the Controls menu.
| Action | Default key | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Open Map | X | Opens the full-screen browser. |
| Place World Map | ` (grave) | Places the world projection at the block you are looking at. If anchor mode is enabled, stores the offset from the nearest matching anchor sign instead. |
| Toggle World Map | [ | Toggles the world projection on and off. |
| Toggle HUD Map | ] | Toggles the HUD minimap on and off. |
| Show Overlay | Z | Shows the system map overlay. Hold mode by default; configurable to toggle. |
Configuration
The config screen is accessible from Options > Controls > CrowMap Settings. (please open a GitHub issue if you can think of a better spot to put this)
It can also be opened with the command /owo-config crowmap.
