Easy Map Recipes is a lightweight Minecraft datapack that changes the standard map crafting recipe by replacing the compass with paper. This simple adjustment makes maps far more affordable, especially when players need several for exploration, navigation, or large building projects.
Designed for vanilla Minecraft Java Edition 1.21.1, the pack changes only this recipe, preserving the rest of the game’s mechanics. It is particularly useful alongside map focused gameplay or atlas mods, and offers a practical quality of life improvement for any Minecraft server. At BoxToPlay, we recommend it for survival communities seeking easier access to essential exploration tools.
