Camera Bounds on Minimap

Yay another question right away xD
So you all know there Maps in which you are in a small region and when you e.g. enter a circle of power you move to another region and not only the camera bounds but also the minimap changes only to this region.
But the Camera-Set Camera Bounds trigger only limits your sight to the region -
so how do you also change the minimap?

You can't unless you're very inventive. Use the search tool and read some of the recent threads about it; I believe there have been 2 in the last month.

It's not possible to change the minimap to the current camera bounds. You can only change the minimap in the editor.

So how do I just turn the whole minimap black then? :o

First, create an all-black 256x256 TGA file with an opaque alpha channel. Then, import it into your map with the file path "War3MapMap.tga". Remember to remove the "war3mapimported\" before the path.

lol its much easier just to go:

Advanced --> Game Interfaces --> Icon - Minimap Circle of Power

Then just type "null.blp".
