Description from the author on Modrinth

Xaero's Map Frame

Give your Xaero's Minimap a slap of Vanilla-like goodness!

Compatible with Square and Circle frames (Although some sizes of the Circle look strange! Here be dragons!)

As far as I know, this should work with any version of Xaero's Minimap. There are two editions: Frilled and Hard. This refers to the interior edge where the frame touches the map itself. Pick whichever you prefer!

Requires Xaero's Minimap (Hopefully that is obvious...)

Written by PoeticRainbow. Read it with pictures on Modrinth.

  1. Download the .zip file from Modrinth. Do not unzip it.

  4. Move Xaero's Map Frame to the right-hand list and click Done.
