I'd be glad to help but theres a broken link.

Dear sopho, just delete the dot in the end of the link, i had higher thoughts of you :lol: . Nah, j/k, type it in without the "." in the end and you'll see the pic. I could do the preview, but i'm rather tired now and i have things to do. Btw sopho, you really should write a map preview tutorial, this has been brought to subject countless times before, it's getting rather boring to explain.

 

[Sopho]

Urgh I flopped lol
Nah, I wouldnt write a tutorial on how to do that because its too easy. I'd work on the preview now and get it done in less than 20 secs

Well, if it is that easy, then why is people asking about it? Indeed is it easy, but i'm getting tired of saying "import a 256x256 32 bits TGA image as War3MapPreview.tga to your map" all the time.

sorry

sry for not answering

thx!

here is a new link

you can send it to [email protected]

the problem is that you need a program to make it save the file as a .blp or something cant remember right now..

I know how to add custom minimap previews no problem.
I'll send you it now and tell you how to do it, its a sinch.

 

[Nightmare_NOR]

THX!

thanks a lot!

i know that you change the name to War3MapPreview.tga if its that

 

[Sopho]

So you want it as a minimap image not a preview image?

 

[Nightmare_NOR]

i could like it to be a preview!

 

[Sopho]

I thought you wanted a minimap preview so its .blp, just convert it to 24bit .tga with WC3 Viewer and your done

 

[Nightmare_NOR]

Get WC3 Viewer (download in tool section) and convert it to 24 .tga. Then just import it and its there
