About
Antique Atlas 4 is a free, client-side Minecraft Java map frontend for Surveyor. It renders explored chunks as hand-drawn tiles, with controls to open the map, pan, zoom, and manage bookmark markers. Waypoints have multiple styles and accent colors, and a graphical editor supports waypoint changes. Markers for notable structures and active Nether portals appear after the player has seen or stood on them in-game. Players can share exploration and waypoints with friends through a Surveyor command. The mod can migrate waypoints from Xaero’s Minimap and shares a save format with Hoofprint. The project lists Minecraft Java versions 1.19.2, 1.20.1, and 1.21.1, alongside Fabric, Forge, NeoForge, and Quilt. Surveyor Map Framework is required; Forge and NeoForge also need Connector and FFAPI. Resource packs control tiles, markers, and biome and structure detection. The project is licensed LGPL-3.0-or-later, and its API is described as unstable.
