bout creating minimap,
You have to create 256x256 or 128x128 .tga or .blp image.

When you finish, import your image and se it's path to: war3mapPreview.tga

Maybe you can use standard human campaign preview.

Bloodbane7, that is the same problem that I have, I know that this post will probably not help you at all, but I have looked everywhere and all they say is just to make it into .tga form and then change the file name to war3mapPreview.tga. So its probably something we are doing wrong.
