Hiveworkshop Map Preview: Custom Minimap?

[Tigrick]

Hello folks,


I have an imported PREVIEW image for my map.
I have an imported MINIMAP image for my map.


In hiveworkshop map previews, hovering the mouse over the map preview image will make the minimap visible.

In-game, my imported MINIMAP can be seen.
But in the 'Maps' section of the hive workshop, when I hover over the preview image of my map, it shows a Blizzard-generated, generic minimap (the one I see in the Editor).


Generic Blizzard-generated minimap preview

Imported Minimap shows when hovering over the mouse. I want that!

Help? (+rep promised)

The pathes are:

• war3mapPreview.tga
• war3mapMap.tga

The sizes are 256x256.

umm just a guess .. try it with blp. coz thats the default format of maps pic
and that is what Hive extracts

@Lender: wow, that will really annoy the moderators if I just update to try & see. I need to be sure.

+rep and thanks for your help, though. If no other way is found, I will try it

No it won't

Indeed. Cm'on, it's your resource. And good presentation is needed for a map.

yay, it works. +rep to all I can + right now

@StoPCampinGn00b: Thanks! I still made some little changes to justify the update for me - that being said, the changelog may look a bit dubious this time ¦)
