What is a Map?

A Map is a world who contains an environment and/or building(s).

Installation

To install maps : you have to extract them first - most of them are in .zip, some of them can be in .rar or .tar.gz format. To extract .tar.gz and .rar files on Windows, you need 7-Zip.

Put the extracted files in the "worlds" folder of your Minetest installation folder. The files such as env_meta.txt must be directly in the world's folder (eg. worlds/my_world/env_meta.txt).

Often, the compressed file also contains a "mods" folder, his files have to be put into your "Mods" folder to show some additional blocks.

Schem file Creation / Import

A schem file (.mts) is used to import building(s) into a world with WorldEdit. This file is in "worlds/<my_world>/schems" folder.

  • When you want to create a schem file : enter in your world (with WorldEdit activated), select your area in commands with //pos1 and //pos2 (these positions corresponds to an invisible diagonal of a cuboid selection), and then //mtschemcreate <name of your schem file>. The file will be created into your "worlds/<my_world>/schems" folder.
  • When you want to import a schem file : enter in your world (with WorldEdit activated), put the schem file into your "worlds/<name of your new world>/schems" folder, type in command : //pos1 and then //mtschemplace <name of your schem file>.
