About this Mod
Accurate Maps
A small quality of life mod that changes the vanilla map coloring to be more accurate to in-game colors.
Showcase
Accurate Maps works by sending extra info to the client about the block being represented in the map. With that extra info, the client can then calculate the color of the block in a more accurate way.
If the map being rendered does not have additional info, the renderer will fall back to the vanilla colors, so mods that use the vanilla map system to render custom stuff will not be affected.
Resource Pack Support
Since we're sampling the color directly from the block texture instead of a predefined list of colors, resource packs are fully supported.
