Waypoints Vanillafied

Waypoints Vanillafied

Waypoints that feel like they were always part of Minecraft.

Waypoints Vanillafied puts your own waypoints and death points right on the vanilla locator bar. No minimap, no HUD clutter, just the bar you already have, with the markers you actually need.

Think of it as a blend between Locator Lodestones and Xaero’s Minimap: the simple, vanilla-friendly feel of one with the waypoint tools of the other.

What you get

Waypoints:
Create a waypoint anywhere, give it a name, and pick an icon style and any color you like with the built-in color picker. Waypoints show up on the locator bar in the dimension they belong to, and the bar’s icons change with distance, just like vanilla.

Death points:
Died somewhere? A marker appears where you fell, so you can find your way back to your items. Newer deaths glow bright red, older ones fade darker, and they disappear when you reach them or after a time you choose.

Custom icons:
Ability to create waypoint icons to your liking using a resourcepack.

Name and distance tooltip:
Hold “Tab” to see the name and distance of the waypoint closest to the center of your view in a tooltip.

Easy to manage:
A waypoint list lets you create, edit and delete waypoints, with keyboard shortcuts if you like moving fast. Waypoints are saved separately for every world and server. Visibility of waypoints can also be toggled using a keybind.

Coming from Xaero’s Minimap?
Your existing Xaero waypoints are imported automatically the first time you join a world, so you don’t start from scratch.

Who is it for?

• Players who love vanilla and want waypoints without a full minimap or in-game rendering.
• Survival players who are tired of losing their stuff after a death.
• Server players who want a lightweight navigation tool.
• Modpack makers looking for a clean, configurable waypoint solution.

Configuration

Everything is adjustable in the config screen: locator background, death points and how long they last, tooltip behavior, pitch arrows, and more.

Client-side only. Works on any server, servers do not need it.
