Transfer, Gift, or Share a World

corruptsamus · Nov 28, 2015

With the Xbox One having a cloud storage, I believe it would be possible to have either a shared map or be able to transfer a map from one gamertag to another. In the past, I have made maps for friends as presents. It has been frustrating for my friends
needing to wait for me to get on to play the maps. Therefore, it is not a very good present.

Here are a couple ways this could work.

1.The transfer would probably be the easiest to do with having Gamer1 transfer MapX to Gamer 2 since that map is already saved to the cloud. It would probably need to be sent as a message or similar concept with an accept/decline option.

2. Another way is just to allow a player that joins in the map save a copy to his gamertag. I know some map builders would be against this idea, since they do not want their work stolen/credit be taken from them. This would need an enable/disable option.

3. Having a shared map would be nice, because multiple people could work on the same map without needing the host to be on. The mechanics of how this would work could be a bit more tricky. Would it be public, friends only, or specific gamertags. It would
always need to be an online map, because if two or more people join they would be working on the same map.

I believe option 3 the shared map would be most useful for the gaming community. Let me know thoughts and ideas on these suggestions.

Thanks!

Transferring/downloading Minecraft maps

Hi! Yes it is fine to download and share maps. You will not get banned as it is not against any rules in the Code of Conduct. Well as long as the world is not modded. But to download or share maps you need to have a save of that map and transfer it to your
profile via modding tool. This is not considered modding by merely using a tool to transfer worlds! You will need a USB, A computer on which you can store files and the tool to complete the transfer. What a lot of people use is Horizon and/or Modio.

Share World

a code of some sort (pin#) could be given to people to access the shared map.

I agree. Having the ability to work on a shared world even though the "owner" isn't online would be amazing.

Unfortunately, gift cards cannot be transferred from one account to another!

You can share share your thoughts and feedback by visiting feedback.xbox.com as that is the right place for your voice to be heard!

Hi,Lenny! I'm Luis, a fellow Xbox Gamer . Thanks for reaching us out here.

Unfortunately there is no way to transfer a gift card to another account once you have redeemed it.

Was it a suscription or game gift card?

Because if it was you can still share it through the home xbox feature

Hello MilitantTaco,

Thanks for posting on the Xbox forums. We understand that your son redeemed an Xbox gift card to the wrong account, and you would like the funds to be transferred to the correct account. You would also like to know if game licenses can be transferred
as well. The redemption and use of gift cards (other than Skype gift cards) are governed by the

Microsoft Gift Card Terms and Conditions. The terms and conditions state, "Your Microsoft account balance
is non-transferable to another person or Microsoft account." in section 2.5. The licenses for games are not transferrable as well.

There are options available in this scenario that we can take. The funds on the account cannot be transferred. However, a Microsoft account user can

gift certain items on the Microsoft Store like games to another Microsoft account. The person receiving the gift will get an email with a code for the item. The games that are already on the account cannot be traferred either, but you can use
the home console feature on an Xbox One to share games from one account to another. The article we provided explains more about sharing content and subscriptions through the console. We hope this information helps
MilitantTaco!
