Heroes on Minimap

how do u make it so heroes on the minimap dont have that fluffy thing around them and just be regular dots on the map?

replies are greatly appreciated

You could try
But that might just hide it entirely.

Ya hes right I checked I cant seem to find it as a unit icon...but you could take a normal unit and give it hero inventory and hero spells....I think....

Nope, no hero spells for regular units. Not without tricking WC3 (As usual...)

if you dont want any hero 2 have that fluffy thing around him, then u can change the icon for it in Advanced / Game Interface

what would i change it to?
its: UI\Minimap\minimap-hero.blp

hmm... I dont think there is a warcraft icon that u can use, u must make your own.

Or use the one for units.

there isnt one for regular units

OMG, you are so complicated... In the units editor, go to the field

"Statistics - Hide Minimap Display = True"

no? that just hides the thing completely...

Oh, ok, sorry, I thought you just wanted it completely removed... Never tried this, but maybe you can make it appear as normal by changing its classification with triggers?

try this :

go to object manager and gi ti the hero ur gonna edit :

Units count as : hero (change that to unit)

Lol, you can just checkmark `Stats - hide hero minimap display'... because right below it is a checkbox for `Stats - Hide minimap display' (no hero mention!).

(and it works.)
