How to Make a Map in Minecraft

Here's how to make a Map in Minecraft from scratch:

1.Make a Crafting Table. Use 4 Wood Planks of any type (Oak Wood Planks, Crimson Wood Planks, etc.).

2.Mine 9 Sugar Cane. Look for stalks near water in swamp or desert biomes and use any tool to cut them down.

3.Put your Crafting Table on the ground and interact with it to open the 3X3 crafting grid.

4.Make 9 Paper. Placing 3 Sugar Cane in the middle row of the crafting grid will make 3 Paper.

5.Make a Compass. Put 1 Redstone Dust in the center of the 3X3 grid and 4 Iron Ignots in the adjacent boxes.

6.Position your Compass at the center of the crafting grid, then place 8 Paper in all the remaining slots.

In Minecraft's Bedrock Edition, an Empty Map can be crafted using 9 Paper. To add a location marker, you must combine the map with a Compass on a Cartography Table.

7.You now have an Empty Locator Map you can add to your inventory. Equip and use the Map, and then walk around to fill it out.

How to Set a Map Marker in Minecraft

You can mark locations on your Map with Banners. In a Crafting Table, place 6 Wool of the same color in the top rows, then place 1 Stick in the middle of the bottom row.

Use an Anvil to give the Banner a name, place the Banner on the ground, then use the Map on the Banner. A dot with the name and color of the banner will appear on your Map.

How Do You Make a 3X3 Map Wall in Minecraft

You can place your Maps on Item Frames to make one big continuous map. Here's how to make a 3X3 wall map:

1.Make 9 Empty Locator Maps. Follow the instructions in the first section of this article.

2.Make 9 Item Frames. Put 1 Leather in the middle of the Crafting Table and 8 Sticks in the other boxes to make 1 Item Frame.

3.Go to where you want the center of your Map to be. Then, lay 9 solid blocks of any type on top of each other in a 3X3 square.

Technically, you can make your map wall any size so long as you have enough materials.

4.Use the Item Frames on the blocks to mount them.

5.Equip and use an Empty Locator Map to fill it out, then use the Map on the center Item Frame.

6.Look at the Map in your hands (it will still be in your inventory). You'll see a green dot marking the location of your wall and a white arrow representing your location.

7.Go south to the very edge of the Map, then equip and use another Empty Locator Map and fill it out

8.Go back to the wall and place the new Map on the bottom-center block.

9.Repeat steps 7-8 for the southeast, southwest, east, west, north, northeast, and northwest to complete your map wall.
