Today games are not viewed only as a child’s venture; there are very many adults who enjoy the challenges that are presented by most games. There are several games in the market today but one of the most popular games is the Minecraft game. Minecraft is loved by many, mostly because of its uniqueness; having to build your own world instead of playing in a world that has already been set out for you. The little but very important modifications make the game more interesting.
Zan’s minimap which is also known as Voxelmap, is one such modification that adds an interesting feature to this game. This is however recommended for the Minecraft version: 1.7.10; 1.7.2; 1.6.4… What makes this mod outstanding is the fact that it enables the player to know exactly where they have been and where they are heading to.
Unique features of the Voxelmap
This Voxelmap or the Zan’s minimap has several similarities to the Rei’s minimap, but with more customization options. This minimap mod has support for Aliens motion Tracker and retro Sun direction mod. It also supports square shaped mini map and offers more texture packs. Other than a Radar mod for multiplayer, it also supports several languages; making it truly one of a kind.
This mod is a great add on to your Minecraft game especially with the graphical menu that allows you to modify the map details and an advanced height indicator for mobs.
The indicator for mobs shows you the locations of the enemies that are near you, helping you avoid colliding with them when you least expect it. When you play depending completely on your luck, then things get a little technical.
Voxelmap offers a death maker that shows your exact death location; it’s easier to successfully advance to different levels with this particular feature.
Zans minimap controls:
- Press “M” to open the options for the map (default key) where you can tune it to your liking
- Pressing “B” will let you add a waypoint to the map, which has many uses, can be used to find certain things, to mark points of interests on your map and much more.
- “Z” will zoom the minimap, cycling through the various levels of zoom.
- To open the full map, simply press “X”, and unlike the crafted map, this shows places you haven’t explored yet.
- There is also an unbound key that toggles mobs, simply bind the key you want to it to toggle if you want to see mobs on the map or not.
- Remove all other keybinds set to M, zan’s seems to take last priority. Just go to options > controls > all and find ANYTHING that’s on M and change it.

Guys, use LiteLoader for 1.7.10 for the Forge version, it is very easy to use.When you get to the thing where you edit some of the stuff for LiteLoader, make sure you link LiteLoader to the Forge version you want to use.Then open the Minecraft launcher, and where it says edit profile, select your LiteLoader profile.Enjoy LiteLoader mods like Zan’s Minimap/Voxel Map and World Edit

Download Zans-Minimap-Mod-1.8.litemod, install Liteloader version 1.8
