And get one of my favorite survival maps which is just the single player Skyblock as you can see Skyblock classic edition click download it will take you to the download page of that map now there’s probably two main sides you’re going to be downloading maps from one is Curse

Forge and the other is MC Maps or Minecraft maps here so curse Forge how you download a map is go to files up here at the top in the menu bar and then you want to find the version you want I want the 1.20.1 version of this so it’s

Right here but you may have an older version that you want to download and that’s here as well once you’ve found the version click the three dots on the right hand side and click download file when you do that the download will begin after a few seconds while we’re waiting

Minecraft server and play your Minecraft map with your friends nevertheless our map is now downloaded you may need to keep or save the map depending on your browser on Minecraft maps what we’re going to do is scroll down and find the download map button here once we found

It we want to go ahead and click on it and it will download the map right like so we can now minimize our browser and we want to move all this to our desktop why is that because we need to prepare the files to be able to install them

They won’t sell your desktop forever but for me these are going to be found in the downloads folder however wherever yours downloaded to go ahead and move them from there to your desktop now once these are on your desktop we want to right click and click extract all on

Both so as you can see floating biomes is now extracting that one is done and we can go ahead and do Skyblock classic as well right click extract all and click extract this may take a few seconds depending on your hard drive speed and things like that but as you

Can see they are now both unzipped we have both the dot zip or the zip folders here and the ones that are open so if you hover over it and it says a compressed file it can be deleted now and that’s what we want to do with both

Of these when you hover it should say just Boulders rather like similar to this here it really shouldn’t say any sort of file type now what we want to do is make sure these are set up correctly they are how do we do that we’ll go

Ahead and open it and then once you open it if you have a just a folder just one folder open that folder until you’ve seen multiple folders it might not be all of these you might just have dim one dim dash one in region who knows what

Your map will specifically have but it will have at least one of these folders here usually region and dim one dim dash one but not always but usually you’ll have those or at least an icon or a level file something like this that we have you will have in your map once you

Hear go ahead and click the back button in the top left and drag this to your desktop finally we want to repeat this with our other map again just click through and Skyblock is interesting as you can see it doesn’t have dim one or region it’s only got data here so keep

That in mind you might have just that it really just depends on the map that you’re getting but go ahead and click the back button with this one and drag that to your desktop finally we can install these Maps but I’d recommend deleting these from your desktop here that when you open them

They’re empty there’s kind of dead folders so go ahead and remove those as soon as you open up your map this is what you should see and as long as that’s the case you’re going to go ahead and install them to do that you want to open up the Minecraft launcher and then

Once we’re in the Minecraft launcher what we want to do is click on installations up here at the top then you want to find the installation that you want to play the map with my case it’s going to be latest release but this will work with modded installations as

Well click on the folder icon that appears and it will open up your Minecraft folder in here what you want to do is find your saves folder right here it is for me and this is where all of your single player Minecraft saves are go ahead and drag and drop any of

The maps that you want to install into this saves folder and before you close out of it make sure that when you open them you see these files if you don’t the map’s not going to work so you want to make sure that once it’s in your

Saves folder that as soon as you open up your install maps this is what you see it is for us so we can go ahead and play Minecraft and the maps will be installed so here we are in game if we go ahead and click on single player there they

Are Skyblock classic edition and floating biomes to play the map just double click on it and then when you do that it might ask you this go ahead and say I know what I’m doing because if it doesn’t work for whatever reason you can always just re-download the world right

You can just re-download a fresh copy install it for the version that it’s natively supporting and you’ll be good to go now something worth noting about Skyblock here is it starts off and you have to select your difficulty and you do that over here in chat so I’m going

To go ahead and select the large island and then it teleports around does a bunch of stuff so one second there we go the SkyBlock is now set up we could begin playing it and obviously floating biomes works as well just like the SkyBlock world did so if we joined into

Floating biomes boom we can now go ahead and start parkouring if you have any questions let us know in the comment section down below enjoy your brand new Minecraft custom maps and we will see you in the next video
