[Solved] Remove Minimap Boundary Lines

[A Void]

Hi, is there any possible way to remove white and gray boundary lines that can be seen in the in-game mini-map?

In the mini-map you can see a white rectangular and two straight lines at the bottom and the top. I want those removed (or hidden), is it possible?

Every time the map size became bigger the minimap boundary get smaller, but remove in it I won't be so sure but I know you can change the minimap preview.

Mini-map preview isn't even related to in-game mini-map it only shows up in the lobby and loading screen. Increasing the size of the map wont hide it, It still can be seen.

What I would probably do is export the current minimap as an image, edit the image to remove the boundary lines and import it as an in-game minimap (if I recall correctly, path is "war3mapMap.blp"). I could be wrong though, it's possible that the game internally adds it regardless of the image.

Ok, I found a very creative way of removing the rectangular and the lines from the mini-map. Basically I used the ping model, because ping model is always on top of the mini-map. So I edited ping model in the model editor, created trigger that runs when menu is enabled to ping the mini-map. Thus successfully hiding everything under the ping to black.

Also edited the upper interface to be black. As crappy the interface handling and editing in Warcraft 3 is, it's always nice to find limited workarounds.

This issue has been solved.
