Майнкрафт — настоящий рай для творческих умов. И дело в том, что популярная видеоигра Mojang — это гораздо больше, чем просто приключения, выживание и строительство, ее также можно рассматривать как площадку для создания собственного мира. Именно по этой причине, как только видеоигра заканчивается, геймеры посвящают свое свободное время созданию карт для Minecraft.
Если вы любитель приключений, то наверняка не раз проходили через сообщество Minecraft в поисках хорошей карты. Также вполне вероятно, что через пять минут вы будете поражены тысячами карт, которые вы можете скачать. Нет ли способа узнать, какие из них того стоят?
Содержание
- Как установить карты Minecraft
- Если вы пользователи Windows
- Если вы являетесь пользователями Android
Прежде чем начать свой выбор, считаем удобным сделать небольшой обзор о том, как установить карту для Майнкрафт. Очевидно, что в первую очередь необходимо будет установить игру. Если у вас его нет, не волнуйтесь, вы можете удобно и безопасно загрузить его в этих строках. После загрузки и установки Minecraft вам просто нужно скачать карту на свой устройство. В зависимости от используемой вами операционной системы процесс установки немного изменится. Не беспокойтесь об этом, мы научим вас устанавливать карты на каждую из них.
Если вы пользователи Windows
Пользователи Minecraft с версией Minecraft до Windows 10 потребуется выполнить следующие действия, чтобы установить карты. Прежде всего, убедитесь, что вы установили программа для распаковки файлов в формате .ZIP, .RAR или 7z. Если у вас их нет, мы рекомендуем вам скачать WinRAR.
Теперь необходимо будет распаковать файлы карты в папке сохраненных игр Minecraft. Если вы не знаете, где находится эта папка, перейдите в Minecraft и выберите «Параметры запуска» вариант. После нажатия на «Добавить новое», вы найдете эту опцию рядом с символом «+».
Чтобы закончить, просто найдите «Каталог игр» и щелкните зеленую стрелку рядом со значком папки, чтобы узнать, где сохранены ваши игры. Как только вы узнаете местоположение, скопируйте все файлы карты на нем.
Обычно местоположение сохраненных игр следующее «C: Users ваше имя пользователя AppData Roaming .Minecraft saves» Тем не менее, всегда желательно следовать приведенным выше инструкциям, чтобы быть уверенным.
Если вы используете Windows 10, вполне вероятно, что вы установили версию программы Bedlam (на основе Pocket Edition), поэтому ее установка будет намного проще.
Просто дважды щелкните файл .mcworld и он установится автоматически. Если это не сработает, воспользуйтесь процессом копирования в папку с сохраненными играми.
Если вы являетесь пользователями Android
Если вы Android пользователя, вам сначала понадобится файловый браузер установлен на вашем телефоне. Мы особенно рекомендуем File Файловый менеджер ASTRO; это свободно.
После того, как вы загрузили карту, откройте ASTRO File Manager и найдите сжатую карту в «Скачать» .
Нажмите на файл, который нужно разархивировать, скопируйте его и переместите в папку «Игры> com.mojang> minecraftWorlds» папку.
После этого карта станет доступна в игре. Если вам будет проще, вы можете скопировать карты с помощью подключение вашего мобильного телефона к ПК и делать это не выходя из компьютера.
