What is a Minecraft Map? How Do I Download One?

In Minecraft, you can craft a map out of paper made from sugar cane and add it to your inventory. The map will draw itself as you explore and record where you go. To use a ready-made map, you can be gifted one from a friend, or you can download one from the Internet.

This is ShockeDCrafty here and I genuienly hoped you guys liked the video.

Once you've downloaded a map, though, there are a few steps you need to take in order to be able to explore it in the game. Read on to learn about the following steps:

  1. Downloading a Minecraft map
  2. Locating the Minecraft map on your computer
  3. Unzipping the compressed file
  4. Playing your new map
Minecraft

1. Find and Download a Map

The first thing you need to do is find a map to download. As mentioned above, many times YouTube videos of Minecraft play will contain download links for that map. There are also websites which aggregate Minecraft maps for download.

Always be careful when downloading files from the Internet and only download maps from trusted sources. Be sure that your computer's anti-virus software is up-to-date. Don't download .EXE files that claim to be installers, as they are likely to be viruses.

Some popular sites for downloading maps include: Planet Minecraft Projects, the Maps section of Minecraft Forum, and Minecraft Maps.

2. Find Your Saved Files

Your downloaded map will most likely be in a .ZIP or .RAR form. To unzip it, you will first need to locate the saved file in your Minecaraft 'saves' folder, as that is where downloaded game files like maps are stored.

What is the Minecraft 'saves' folder, and how do you locate it? The folder is in your directory of Minecraft files. There are a few ways to locate it:

Using the Minecraft Launcher:

  1. Open the Launcher, and select Edit Profile.
  2. Click the Open Game Dir option. 'Dir' is short for 'Directory.'
  3. Your 'saves' folder will be in the .minecraft directory.

Using Windows

  1. Open the Start menu and select Run.
  2. Type (without quotes) '%appdata%.minecraftsaves' and hit Enter.

Using Mac OS

  1. Open the Finder.
  2. Select Go and Go to Folder...
  3. When prompted, enter (without quotes) '~/Library/Application Support/minecraft/saves'.

3. Unzip the Map File

The downloaded map file it is most likely in .RAR or .ZIP format, which will need to be unzipped. Unzip it with your favorite unzipper, such as WinRAR, 7-Zip, or The Unarchiver (for Mac OS).

  1. Having located the 'saves' folder, you can copy the folder path of the 'saves' folder into your unzipper of choice.
  2. Depending on which program you use, the unzipped file will be automatically saved to the Minecraft 'saves' folder, or you may be prompted to choose where to save the file.
  3. If saved to the Desktop or another location other than the 'saves' folder, copy and paste the extracted file into the 'saves' folder, which you learned how to locate in Step 2.
  4. You can also rename your downloaded map if you like.

4. Launch Your Downloaded Map

If your downloaded, unzipped map has been saved in the Minecraft 'saves' folder, you should be able to select it when you play Minecraft when asked to select a World from your Worlds list.

  • Thank You So Much

    I'm playing the world from the minecraft 1.2 trailer

    :D

  • You are ment to extract it

  • you can't copy and paste files in winrar so how do you put it in the saves folder? I presume you drag and drop if i'm wrong correct me

  • When i put it into the saves file and open minecraft, i can't find it on my world list!!! what do i do?

  • When I download it it's not a .zip file so I instantly put it in the saves folder but it doesn't show up. I've done this before and it worked, and I just did it again and it didn't...

  • -THIS IS OUTDATED-

    worlds no longer 'occupy' a world slot of 1 to 5, but have unique names (mostly exactly same as world name ingame).

    Like last guy said, just copy the folder (unzipped) to your .minecraftsaves folder to get it as a singleplayer world

  • this is the quick way. just open .minecraft folder and go to saves. in the folder saves, put your downloaded map in it. and then extract it. then you are ready to play!

  • it worked (n_n)!

  • After the file is in there start minecraft and go a little bit throw the different óptions it has to load a little time

  • yeah, i tried it all, but when i go on minecraft it just doesn't show up. am i doing something wrong?

  • Sorry for the dumb questions, but what do you mean by 'Find and Enter' when you say:

    Step 6: Find and Enter the 'Roaming' file. Once inside that file, Find and Enter '.minecraft'

  • @VipDude, Do Winrar and try it. That's all I can say, since I don't know how to use 7zip.

  • It wont work. I have 7zip and it says to download it on the AD. Please help. I have Windows 7.

  • step 1. download the world you want

    step 2. extract the world you want

    step 3. run %appdata% search for Roaming->.minecraft

    step 4. in .minecraft search for saves, put the extracted folder in there, DO NOT RENAME IT, you can rename your worlds in minecraft itself.

    step 5. start minecraft and play

  • uhmm... 1.8 has come out a few weeks ago and this map what I have in at survival mode. How can i change it?

  • hmmmmmmmmmm it works yay

  • I hope the map I downloaded works, and that Winrar won't stuff up like it did with one of the files for Kerbal Space Program...

  • I tried this, and when I downloaded the map, it appeared to already be sorted with winrar. However I renamed the folder World1 (I have no other saves) yet when I open Minecraft it still says i have no worlds?

  • HEELLP. HOW DO YOU DO THIS,I did everything right,but i didn't use winRAR

  • HOW THE HECK DO YOU INSTALL THEM THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF STUFF LIKE THIS ITS AS HARD AS INSTALLING A MOD MAN HOW TO YOU DO ALL THIS STUFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • How do you copy? I can't find it in the options

  • I followed all the steps which worked thing apart from chnaging the name to something like 'World4', thts where i am a bit confused because all my saves have the names('castle land' and other names), eg i have about 6 saves and there not World1,World2,World3 ect So would i need to change the name to World 7 or something ?

  • is there a good unzipper i can't find a good free one

  • i followed all of your steps and it isn't showing up in my select a world screen
