How to Make Bigger Maps in Minecraft
Last updated
Ever wondered how to expand your territory in Minecraft by making bigger maps? You’re not alone! It’s a common question among players looking to explore and document more of Minecraft’s vast world.
If you’re itching to know how to make your maps cover more ground in Minecraft, you’ve come to the right place. Let’s dive into making those expansive maps you dream of!
Quick Steps to Expand Your Minecraft Maps
Making bigger maps in Minecraft isn’t as tough as you might think. First, you need to craft a smaller map using a compass and eight pieces of paper. This will give you the smallest map size.
Next, surround your small map with more paper on a crafting table. Voilà! Your map will grow in size, showing more of the Minecraft world. You can repeat this process up to four times, each time making the map bigger and unveiling more of the world around you.
Unlocking the Full Potential of Your Maps
Remember, the secret to a grand map collection is exploration. As your map size increases, so does your need to venture further into the game’s realms. This not only makes your map more comprehensive but also adds an exciting element of discovery to your Minecraft experience.
Another tip is to use markers like banners to make navigation easier. Place them strategically to mark points of interest or territories you’ve conquered. This small trick can turn your maps into detailed guides of your Minecraft adventures.
