Odyssey Map
What it is
Odyssey Map is a free, open-source minimap and fullscreen map mod for Minecraft. Its minimap can use a circular or square shape with North-Up or Heading-Up rotation. Players can create markers, while the mod records death locations and tracks beds and spawn points. Settings cover HUD position, size, transparency, marker visibility, zoom, map shape, and terrain colors. Because it is client-side, multiplayer servers do not need the mod installed. The listing names Fabric, Forge, and NeoForge support for singleplayer, multiplayer, dedicated servers, and large modpacks, along with shader support. The maker describes efficient terrain-data caching to keep performance impact low. Odyssey Map is licensed under Apache-2.0 and linked to NightBeam Studio. Listed game versions are 1.20.1, 1.21.1, 26.1.2, and 26.2. Downloads, GitHub issues, and Discord support are linked.
