yes.
1)Go to scenario.
2)Go to Map options.
3)Hide mini-map in previews.If it is'nt checked check it.
4)Masked areas are partially visible. If it is checked uncheck it.

There's also triggers to get rid of the creep camps button and hide the camps on the minimap (probably in 'Game').

On a related note, does anyone know how to make units not show up on the minimap? Specifically buildings, because the hide in minimap option in the unit editor doesn't work for them. Maybe there's a minimap unit texture that I need to change?
