Hide Minimap icons in-game

[darkrider]

I want to know if there is a way to hide unit's minimap icons while playing. I know i can disable the "display minimap icon" in object editor. But i need to replace every hero in the map to do so, that's why i want to know if i can hide them while map is running.

Thanks.

Um.. you need to hide every hero's minimap icon, or all the icons?

 

[darkrider]

both. If it can be done with all of them, thats better. But so far heroes will do

Go to Advanced -> Game Interface -> Model-Mini map Creep camp large. set it to None, do the same for Creep camp small and Minimap resource.
the hero part i also know or used to, i forgot sorry.

now, thinking it through.. I have miss expressed myself.

What i want is to, for ig, I have a hero unit in the map, I want to hide his hero minimap-icon but if later i create a new hero, i want it to have an icon.

I want to know if this is doable while the map is being played (so that i don't have to create a duplicated version of every hero which doesn't displays an icon) and replace the hero who has an icon with this copy that doesn't

Thanks crimson fire but it is not what i need

oh hmm i dont know about that, if there is a way it should be with triggers

There is no possible way of triggering mini-map display of units in-game, or out of it.

So, as far as I know, the only way do perform what you need is to create 2 exactly same units, with a little difference - one will be shown on minimap, and the other one will not.

maybe you just need to go to object editor and there set Statistics - Hide Minimap = YES
i don't know if it's well written, my editor is polish

But i think there is no other way... too bad I have to copy-paste 55 heroes :'(
