Better Nether Map Mod is aimed at players who actually use maps in the Nether or other cave dimensions and need cleaner terrain information. Instead of trying to represent everything, it makes maps more practical by showing only the blocks below a chosen height, which helps turn underground and Nether mapping into something easier to read and use.
Key Features
- Nether and cave-focused mapping: Maps display only the blocks below a certain height, making them more useful in the Nether and other cave dimensions.
- Adjustable height behavior: You can choose whether the map uses the height where it was created or a custom value.
- Clearer navigation: By limiting what the map shows, the terrain view becomes more accurate and easier to follow.
