How to Submit a CTM Map to CTM Maps Repository

Updated

CTM Maps Repository accepts community map submissions through a Map Submission page linked in its main navigation. To submit, you need a finished CTM map plus the same descriptive fields the site already uses on its listings — name, author, Minecraft version, length, objective counts, difficulty, and map type — and you should expect the site operator to review and publish it rather than have it appear instantly. The repository is run by 14ercooper Limited and states that submissions are governed by its Terms of Service, so read those before sending anything.

What the site expects in a submission

The repository's own map listings show the fields it treats as standard. Matching them in your submission avoids back-and-forth. Using the two maps shown on the homepage as reference:

Field Example (Ragecraft IV: Underworld) Example (Edselwreck)
Map name Ragecraft IV: Underworld Edselwreck
Author(s) heliceo & suso SlimeKing77777
Series / category Ragecraft Other Tales
Length Very Long Short
Objectives 16 required + 12 bonus 8 required + 0 bonus
Difficulty Hard Hard
Minecraft version 1.20.1 1.20.1
Map type Semi-Open World Linear / Branching
Players Singleplayer or Multiplayer, 1–3 recommended Not stated

Prepare the equivalent information for your map before you start, including a short description and a download link or file.

Step-by-step

  1. Finish and test the map. Play it through on the stated Minecraft version, confirm every required objective is reachable, and check that bonus objectives and difficulty are accurately described.
  2. Gather your metadata. Write down name, author name(s), series if any, length, required and bonus objective counts, difficulty, Minecraft version, map type, and recommended player count.
  3. Open the Map Submission page. It is listed in the site's main navigation alongside Home, Popular Maps, Recently Added, Browse, and Advanced Search.
  4. Fill in the form with your prepared details. Use the same wording conventions the existing listings use (for example "Very Long" or "Short" for length, "Hard" for difficulty) so your entry sorts and filters consistently.
  5. Provide the download. Supply a working link or file. The homepage listings show download counts, so the site tracks downloads from wherever the map is hosted.
  6. Accept the Terms of Service. The footer links the ToS and Privacy pages; submissions fall under them.
  7. Submit and wait. The site is operated by a small team (it asks for Patreon support to stay online), so publication is not instant. Expect a manual review.

Common snags

  • Missing objective counts. The listings always split required and bonus objectives. If you only give a total, your entry will look inconsistent with the rest of the site.
  • Wrong version label. Both featured maps specify "For Minecraft 1.20.1." State the exact version your map was built and tested on.
  • Vague map type. Use the site's existing vocabulary — "Semi-Open World," "Linear / Branching" — rather than inventing a new category.
  • Assuming instant publishing. There is no evidence of an automatic upload pipeline; the operator curates the front page and the browse sections.
  • Ignoring the ToS. The footer explicitly ties the site to its Terms of Service; submitting means agreeing to them.

After submission

Once accepted, your map can appear in Browse, Recently Added, or Popular Maps, and may be picked for the Featured Map or Random Map slots on the homepage. Those slots currently highlight maps like Ragecraft IV: Underworld (84,415 downloads) and Edselwreck (323 downloads), so placement is not guaranteed by submission alone.
