Download A Minecraft Server Map

- Stop your server and use the

First Steps
Make sure that you are familiar with the following aspects of server management before you continue with this guide
Installing a Minecraft Map
Preparing a World Save
- All uploaded maps must be stored in a .zip archive before upload to your server.
- Most Minecraft maps are in this format when they are downloaded.
- If it is not then use these steps to prepare it for upload.
- Download archiving software. (We recommend 7zip, get it here: Download 7zip)
- Once 7zip is installed you will find new options when right-clicking files and folders on your PC.
- To create a .zip archive, right-click the files you wish to upload and follow the path:
7zip
>add to archive
- In the pop-up window select
.zip
forarchive format
and click OK. - You now have a zipped archive with the same name as the files you downloaded.
Remember that you must use .zip format to upload through Multicraft. .rar .7z etc will not work correctly.
Uploading the World Save Files
This section covers FTP Access through the Multicraft Control Panel.
See How to use Multicraft FTP Access to Upload and Download Files for more information
See How to use Multicraft FTP Access to Upload and Download Files for more information
If you wish to use alternative FTP software instead then use this guide:
How to use Filezilla FTP Access to Upload and Download Files
How to use Filezilla FTP Access to Upload and Download Files
- Within the main Multicraft server window, click
FTP File Access
. - Log in to your FTP account with the information from your welcome emails.
- On the left-hand menu select
Upload
. - Choose the folder from your PC and make sure the
Upload to Directory
field contains only a/
.
A single forward-slash (/
) represents the root directory of the server, uploaded Minecraft maps must be placed here to function. - Once the process is completed you can return to the servers main screen in Multicraft.
Restoring the World from a ZIP archive
- Once the files are uploaded we can use the
Restore/Backup
function in Multicraft to enable them for your server.
- Stop your Server.
- Click on
Backup
in the left navigation menu. - Select
Restore
on the left-hand side of the page. - Click on
Restore
next to the zipped archive that you just uploaded. - You will receive a warning saying that some files may be over-written. Click OK to continue.
This warning appears because some of the server files will be over-written by the versions found in the uploaded map. - The process will take a few moments and completes in the background.
- You can check that the file has been successfully restored by locating a folder that has the same name as your zipped upload.
- If you have any issues at this point please check the Troubleshooting below.
- It is safe at this point to delete your original world folder if you will not be using it again.
Remember, if you do this the steps for restoring your original world below will not function.
Multicraft Settings
- Now that the world has been uploaded and restored you will need to change one of the settings in the Multicraft panel so that your server knows which world to load.
- Make sure you are on the Main server window (This displays the pack logo, player slots, RAM usage and other items).
- Underneath the information about player slots, server address etc you will see a field labeled
World
. - This is the name of the folder that the server will use when starting up.
- Change the name in this box to match exactly the name of the folder that you uploaded and selected with the restore function.
The server will recognise capitalisation, spacing and punctuation so keeping the file name simple will make this process easier. - Scroll down the page and click the large
Save
button. - Start your server and make sure that it runs successfully with the map installed.

Troubleshooting
- The default Minecraft worlds are always called
world
, because of this, it can sometimes cause problems when uploading a map that uses the standard names.
We recommend changing the map that you are uploading to a unique name so that you can distinguish it in the restore/backup window and prevent any unexpected errors. - This also applies if you have given your normal Minecraft world a unique name.
When reverting to it, you will need to type that custom name into the world field rather thanworld
.
