How do I download the old maps?

I was trying to download the old easy map, but I cant figure it out, can anyone help me or explain? Thanks!

 

Go click the maps button above

 

So you click on any of the maps you want.
Then it should download it as a zip, you unzip it and put it in your saves folder in this path /Users/*yourusername*/Appdata*This is hidden by default, make sure to click show hidden items*/Roaming/.Minecraft/saves/

 

Exactly what old easy map you want? There's the oldest one (Easy from 2013-10-11) oh yeah, thats the only one, well click on it and it will download, follow the steps above ^

 

Alternativly, you can put in this url https://www.sandlotminecraft.com/pages/maps/
instead of clicking the maps button above.

 

Do you know where I would find my saves folder (Im on macbook btw)

 

type this ~/Library/Application Support/minecraft

you will see the saves folder

 

you type %appdata% in the bar at the bottem left corner, then open the .minecraft folder. scroll down until you see saves, then open the saves folder and drag the map into that, then relog from the launcher

 

you could do c0wg0d's way too, thats IF YOU ARE IN MINECRAFT if you are not in it yet, do my way.

I'd suggest my way but if you know what they mean, do it.

Also whats up c0wg0d!

 

To update: In the Finder, from the Go menu, select 'Go to Folder', then type: ~/Library/Application Support/minecraft, and click Go. ~ is your home directory, usually /home/YOURNAME, so ~/.
You'll see the saves folder, then go put your zip of the old easy map in there, then unzip the old easy map, (I am on windows so i don't know if this applies, but do extract here)

 

Ok, I've tried it for myself and this is how i did it:

You click the map you want to download, then press the 3 dots and a little pop up should happen, one of the options being "show in folder". Click this, and it will open a file that should only have this map in it.

Then go down to the bar in the bottom left hand corner and type %appdata%, and then open .minecraft, and scroll down to the saves folder.

Open this, then make both files visible to drag the map into this. Once its dragged into there, you can delete the one thats Not in the saves folder if you would like. Once its like this, you can close both file tabs and open the launcher.

It should be a white screen with a loading bar at the top left hand corner saying the launcher is updating (this is just the map file being implemented) and then once its to the normal launcher, you can press play. Now once at the singleplayer page, remember this is a very old version of minecraft so it will take a while, it took around 30-60 seconds for me. Once opened, bam! you got your world! (I will also suggest making a backup)

 

plus, I used the Lowest MB map, 32 MB so im sure it will be a bit longer with a the easy map

 

Nope it only happens if it's an older version


also, I never seen a moderator ask a question before, that's a rare thing

 

It depends, usually it shouldn’t, but this is why they have the screen that pops that says “continue?” With the option to cancel, have a backup or to continue without a backup, but occasionally it will corrupt or crash
