Removing minimap lines

Hey
I've only seen this being discussed in one other thread and it didn't really solve my problem.

So what I want is to remove the camera bounds border lines (grayish) and the view border lines (white) that appear on the minimap. I've been able to remove all other items that show up when I have my custom minimap, except for those lines.

I'd really appreciate some help.

you mean the grid you see in the editor?? If you mean this, you go to
View(Top Left)->Grid->None

If you mean the black boundries on the sides, go to
Scenario(Top Left)->Map Size Camera Bounds
When there, you will see a minimap view with arrows on the sides. Click on these arrows until you see each side of the square maxed out on the edges, and your done.

GL with this, if i didnt help, try explaining better and i will try to help!

You mean not in the editor, right? Probably, since in the editor it's rather easy (and not very useful)...

I've been trying to figure this out myself. But (un?)fortunately, you've gotten farther than I have. Can you tell me how to get rid of the buildings on the minimap?

And the grey camera bounds lines - those are the ones at the sides when the map isn't square shaped, right? I haven't tried to remove those yet (since I'm making a square map), but there might be a "Game Interface" image that changes it.

I meant the in-game minimap lines, thanks anyway yuripro :)

Well, most of the buildings can be removed by replacing the 'Icon - Minimap Hero', 'Icon Minimap Neutral' (and so on) with an empty opaque image.

Or you can just set the 'Stats - Hide Minimap Display' for all the units that you have on the map to 'True'.

You might have to go with the first option to remove some of the minimap graphics, im not sure.

So does anyone else know how to rid of these lines?

(Sorry, this is a bit off topic...) I tried replacing the minimap images (and some minimap models) but it's not working. Do you have a list of all of the things to replace (or maybe there's some that shouldn't be replaced)?


Anyway, for the white minimap lines, I'm just going to make the minimap a lot lighter, so they're less noticable. You already have a custom minimap picture, right?

I replaced (Icon - Minimap) Circle of Power, Creep Camp large and small, Hero, Neutral, Resource, Resource entagled and haunted.

I do have a custom minimap picture..making it lighter isnt such a bad idea. I might even make it white and then have some cool text at areas where the player won't be able to come to (i have a locked view for everyone).
Might not look very good though...
