No, not with triggers BUT

Yes. Download/import a 256x256 TGA file (of your choice) with import manager, and rename the path something like WC3minimap.tga.

The path is "war3mapMap.tga".
The reason why minimap can't be changed in game is because, upon map's saving, the minimap image file is then created.

Oh . . . bummer lol well thanks for your answering. Oh another question how do you change the Map Preview. I think I needed to download something but I forgot what it was or where to get it.
