Multiple Minimap Images

[DarkDenizen]

Is it possible to use triggers to change the minimap image? I'm working on a map that has 6 different areas, and when I set the camera bounds to one of them, the minimap stays the same as it does when you look at the whole map. I want to change the minimap whenever the area changes. Is this possible?

Im afraid not. The mini-map can only be changed in WE by importing and renameing a image.
If the mini-map is not particularly important i suggest replacing it with a black square, this would "disable" it. If you dont know how to import a mini map just search for it, there are plenty of tuts/answered questions about that sort of thing.

This is impossibe. I tried it myself once, make 10 areas, then use a trigger to define the map size, but the image is not changed. It will just screw the minimap.
Yes, do what Kixer says, import a black screen

Not possible!? Oh well. Thanks for the help.

Well, Im not sure if the minimap image is a constant or a variable. Seeing as how you can change it in the editor through fixing the path Im assuming its a constant. Therefore I dont think it can be changed. However, assuming I am wrong, the image could be changed using JASS

It definantly cannot be changed...

how about my idea
u go in the game , print screen and use paint cut out the minimap
then import to World editor use that picture in minimap

In game play constants, change something like Mini Map Creep Camp Icon to ".mdx" and it goes black.

This was my first question when I joined here, and the response was the same.

Sorry but I think it isn't possible.
