Conflux Map
Exploration in Minecraft often feels like wandering through an endless, uncharted wilderness. You know there's a village nearby, but the dense forest and rolling hills make it impossible to spot. You've died twice in the same ravine, and your death points are scattered across three different dimensions. This is where Conflux Map steps in, transforming your gameplay with a powerful minimap and fullscreen world map that feels like it was built by someone who truly understands the pain points of a dedicated explorer.
This isn't just another minimap mod. Conflux Map is a feature-rich Fabric mod designed for both single-player adventures and bustling multiplayer servers. It works flawlessly as a client-only mod right out of the box, but if you run a server, an optional companion mod unlocks a whole new level of shared cartography. Whether you're hunting for ancient cities or just trying to find your way back to your base, this tool has you covered.
Core Features: The Minimap and Fullscreen Map
The heart of Conflux Map is its highly customizable HUD. You can choose between a square or round minimap, resize it to your liking, and rotate it to match your view direction. It sits wherever you want on the screen, and it intelligently moves out of the way of vanilla HUD elements like your health bar and hotbar, so you never lose sight of your vitals.
When you need the big picture, press the default keybind to open the fullscreen map. This view offers smooth panning and continuous zoom, with cursor-centered zooming that makes navigating large areas feel intuitive. You can toggle a chunk grid for precise building projects and switch between dedicated map modes to view terrain, biomes, or even chunk load levels. The layer system is dimension-aware, automatically handling the surface, caves, the Nether, and even the End.
Terrain Autofill and Structure Finding
One of the most impressive features is terrain prediction. If you have the world seed, Conflux Map fills unexplored areas with deterministic terrain predictions. This means you can see the layout of the Overworld, the Nether roof, or the End before you even step foot there. As you explore, the predictions are replaced with real terrain data. You can filter the map to show all predictions, only generated areas, or just the places you've actually explored. It's important to note that this is purely a map feature—Conflux Map does not alter world generation at all.
Finding structures is also a breeze. The map displays icons for vanilla structures with category filters, so you can quickly locate nearby villages, temples, or strongholds. You can even search for a specific structure type and save the result directly as a waypoint, making your next raid or exploration trip perfectly planned.
Waypoints, Navigation, and Drawing Tools
Navigation is where Conflux Map truly shines. You can create local waypoints with custom names, colors, and sets, and the mod keeps configurable death points for each dimension. These waypoints appear as in-world beams, labels, or edge indicators, so you always know which direction to head. The mod even supports the vanilla 1:8 coordinate ratio, translating waypoint positions between the Overworld and Nether automatically.
For those who love to mark up their world, the drawing tools are a fantastic addition. You can draw lines, rectangles, circles, and freehand paths directly on the map, add text labels, and then select, move, recolor, or erase your annotations. A configurable movement trail shows where you've been, and you can export any map area to a PNG file at a chosen resolution, with your drawings included.
Entity Radar and Customization
Keeping track of what's around you is critical, especially on multiplayer servers. Conflux Map includes a robust entity radar that displays players, mobs, dropped items, vehicles, and projectiles with independent controls. You can choose between detailed entity icons or simpler generic markers, and the mod automatically groups crowded targets to keep the map readable. Nearly every aspect of the mod—from the minimap appearance to keybinds—is configurable in-game, and you can even replace toolbar icons and minimap frames using standard Minecraft resource packs.
Client-Only and Server Companion Features
The beauty of Conflux Map is its flexibility. A client-only installation gives you the full minimap, fullscreen map, local waypoints, death points, drawings, entity radar, map export, and local terrain caching. However, if you run a server, the optional companion mod adds a suite of powerful features:
- Low-bandwidth server-wide map synchronization
- Public waypoints shared by all Conflux Map clients
- Seed-based terrain and structure prediction controlled by the server
- Authoritative terrain corrections for predicted areas
- A chunk-ticket/load-level map
- A standalone browser-based web map
Server operators have granular control over which features are available, including privacy, permissions, and rate limits. The Fabric companion is included in the matching mod JAR, while a standalone Paper companion is available for Paper servers from Minecraft 1.21.1 through 26.2.
If you are looking for a hassle-free way to get started with this mod, the foxygame.net launcher offers a one-click installation for Conflux Map, handling the version compatibility and mod loading setup so you can jump straight into your world without fiddling with file directories.
Supported Versions and How to Install
Conflux Map is a Fabric mod and does not support Forge or NeoForge. Fabric builds are available for a wide range of versions, including 1.17.1, 1.18.2, 1.20.1, 1.21 through 1.21.11, and 26.1 through 26.2. Always check the Files page and select the file made for your exact Minecraft version.
To install Conflux Map for Minecraft, the process is straightforward. First, install Fabric Loader and Fabric API. Then, download Conflux Map and place the JAR file in your mods folder. MaliLib is optional but recommended, as it enables multi-key combinations and integrates with the mod's configuration interface on supported versions. For a Fabric server, place the matching Conflux Map JAR and Fabric API in the server's mods folder. For a Paper server, place the standalone confluxmap-paper-<version>.jar in the plugins folder. Players without the client mod can still join the server normally.
If you prefer a more automated approach, the foxygame.net launcher maintains an up-to-date add-on catalog that includes Conflux Map, ensuring you always get the correct build for your game version and loader with automatic updates.
Default Keybinds and Final Thoughts
All keybinds can be changed from Minecraft's Controls screen. The default layout includes H to toggle the minimap, M to open the fullscreen map, B to create a waypoint at your position, and U to open the waypoint list. Other keys handle zooming, cycling layers, and toggling settings.
Conflux Map is more than just a convenience; it's a comprehensive navigation suite that respects your playstyle. Whether you are a lone explorer mapping out a massive survival world or a server admin looking to provide shared maps for your community, this mod delivers. The ability to import waypoints from Xaero's Minimap and VoxelMap makes migration painless, and the GPL-3.0 license ensures it remains open-source. For players who want a seamless setup, the foxygame.net launcher also simplifies managing mod profiles, letting you switch between different versions of Conflux Map without breaking your save files.
