Here's an example using the URL to center on my mountain lair at -800, -1800. The url ends with "&x=-800&z=-1800".

But perhaps you are trying to set the x and z from within the locations list file rather than from the URL? In which case beware that if coordinates are specified on the URL they'll override the position provided by the locations list - so check the URL you're using isn't centering the map to 0, 0.

Here's an example using the locations list:

this locations list file makes this map centered on the ice spikes.

(the x and z are the 2nd and 3rd items specified in the file)

Well, that explains it. I was using the locations list, but I was trying to do it as one setting.

x and z = 128, -320

rather than

x = 128
z = -320

Thank you very much!

Thanks for reporting back, I can see now how the wording of the help can mislead (and do something about it).

Hi - I'm trying to obtain the map. I followed the directions and confirmed I have a .txt file in my Google Drive folder. However I'm still getting the "Failed to load locations from src "https://googledrive.com/host/0BzutsAPFfbATNUUwME1FV1lfcnM", something went wrong: error,
"

Is there anything else that could cause this? I noticed the link I got the Unique Code from looks a little different from yours. It shows "view" instead of "edit." I tried changing the permissions to anyone can edit, but it still has the word view in the link.

Thanks! Looks like it will be exactly what I wanted once I get it working

I think you have the Google Drive sharing permissions of your file set to "anyone with the link can view"

Instead, the sharing permissions need to be set to "anyone on the internet can find and view", which is also called Sharing "On - Public on the web".

I'm not entirely sure of the distinction Google is trying to make between "public on the web" vs "anyone with the link", but when I switch one of my files to "anyone with the link" then it exactly replicates the chain of redirects and eventual error I get when I try to use your file in a map.

Also, your "Future mob trap" entry probably won't show up as the line doesn't start with a known location type (I could suggest "Label", "PlayerStructure", or "PlayerMachine").

Thank you so much for replying so fast! I made the recommended changes but am still getting the same error...

Your map is working for me now:

https://googledrive.com/host/0B35KCzsTLKY1dTJreWVWdzNNa28/index.html?googlesrc=0BzutsAPFfbATNUUwME1FV1lfcnM

If that link isn't working for you, perhaps try force-reloading - the old redirect might be cached in your browser.

Hi, I tried to use this tool to show my world. However, I found that ocean does not show for far distances. Is it possible to be resolved?

The following is the setting I am using.

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/71338658/Minecraft/map/map.htm?src=location.txt&oceansrc=oceanmask.png&title=Glacies Area&blurb=&range=6400&x=-6408&z=-13296&showorigin=true&showcoordinates=true&oceantheme=bluecoastline

The distance the map can display ocean depends on the size of the oceanmask.png, the .png is 1250 × 1250 by default and each pixel represents 16 blocks, meaning it covers a Minecraft area of 20,000 × 20,000, or 10km in every direction from spawn.

The problem can be resolved with a bigger oceanmask.png, but I've not written anything to generate larger ocean maps from a seed - perhaps unleash the inner cartographer and draw the far oceans

Hello,

I am trying to use your program for our map and I'm not sure what I am doing wrong. I keep getting

"Failed to load locations from src "https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=1ZjJlhokuSnv65q3P90ikQMRjScrtvkDa", something went wrong: error, "

I've tried half a dozen different ways to modify the url and nothing is working. Is it a problem with 1.13?

Hi,

I have been trying to link an icon file to my map, but I get the error

Could not load Custom-icons image at "https://www.dropbox.com/s/8b7my9ne5l7i8uz/dungeon.png?dl=0"

I have tried putting the link (https://www.dropbox.com/s/8b7my9ne5l7i8uz/dungeon.png?dl=0) in both my location list file and in the URL (encoded of course), but I get the same error.

Dr. Frankenstone,

Would this Map process, or how could it, work with a Realm for Bedrock edition being played on Xbox?
