Quick Guide to Adding Maps to Minecraft
Adding maps to Minecraft is simpler than you might think. First, you need to download the map you want to add to your game. There are loads of websites where Minecraft players share the maps they’ve created. Once you’ve found a map you like, download it to your computer.
Next, you’ll need to locate your Minecraft ‘saves’ folder. This is where all your Minecraft worlds are stored. On most computers, you can find this folder in the ‘Minecraft’ directory within the ‘AppData’ folder. Simply move the downloaded map file into the ‘saves’ folder. Voila! Next time you start up Minecraft, you’ll see the new map available in your list of worlds.
