Since it’s only in early access, there are many ways for Pocketpair to improve what is already a fantastic experience in Palworld. While the developer is prioritizing bug fixes for the time being, fans are providing new content for the game through mods. And one of these Palworld mods adds an in-depth essential mini-map before Pocketpair possibly embeds their own.
There are many fantastic mods for Palworld fans to download. We have a list of the very best mods available online, and a new mod has been uploaded allowing fans to actually breed new and unreleased pals in the game.
While adding pals not released by Pocketpair is fantastic, the developer is also yet to add a mini-map to the game. Many fans desperately want a mini-map to be added, which is why it’s great news that there’s a mod available to download that goes above and beyond the basics.
Game changer Palworld mod adds mini-map
A Palworld mod has been uploaded to NexusMods by user T3R3NC3B. It was first uploaded on February 24th but was recently updated on March 10th. The mod is called ‘Paladar – Mini Map Radar,’ and it basically adds a mini-map to the game.
However, it is more than just your basic mini-map. Per the game’s page, it shows all of the following features listed below:
- Shows player world location.
- Shows all Pals around you on the minimap.
- Shows fast travel points on minimap.
- Shows other players on the minimap.
- Shows lifmunk effigies on minimap.
- Shows dungeons on minimap.
- Shows chests on minimap.
- Shows notes on minimap.
- Shows human NPC’s on minimap.
- Shows player camps on minimap.
- Shows death locations on minimap.
- Shows skillfruit trees on minimap.
- Shows rare/shiny pals on minimap (indicated with sparkles on the pal icon).
- Shows bosses on map.
- Circular/square design choice. (New)
- Auto-hide map in boss battles, inventories, menus.
- Compatible with single player and dedicated servers (only if installed on clients)
- Slightly auto-zooms based on your speed.
- Mega zoomed-out mode for easier navigating without opening full map!
- Minimap rotation un/lock.
- Minimap render resolution setting.
- Minimap size & position adjustable in-game with ease.
- Adjust minimap zoom level.
- Mod config menu support for easy configuration.
According to the mod page, this mini-map mod should work with the most recent build of the game on Steam which is version 0.1.5.1. This update added a significant change players must know about concerning fire and ice, and it also fixed a popular bug Pocketpair is sorry for fixing.
There is no mention of a mini-map in the official roadmap of planned new content for the game, and there have not been any hints from Pocketpair that they will add one in the future. So, if you’re desperate for a mini-map, then this is the perfect mod to download.
It shows everything you could possibly want, and it’ll make your life that much easier locating and capturing the pals you most desire. Downloading it is an absolute no-brainer.
