On the minimap, I want to make the mimimap solid black so you can't tell where you are in the map. Like in Warcraft 3, they can do that too.
then I suggest you dl paledit and edit the minimap color tiles and replace everything with black on every tileset
No, I meant like... regular terrain and with black minimap or not shown.
Ya, he said the minimap color tiles.
Each tile will display a certain way on the minimap.
Change that, but not the tile itself.
How do I do that? Because I'm new to mod, still learning.
I dunno, just hope that someone that knows where they would be comes along and answers.
I'm not exactly sure, but the tiles in the minimap are regular terrain tiles resized.

I already posted how in the post im quoting
Are you even sure they exist?
StealthyDeath said that they're scaled-down of the real tiles, and that's what I believe from seeing what they look like on small(64x64) maps.
Just go to there pallets, And color each of them solid black, Then once you go to your mini map, It will show only the color you used to color them all.
"Are you even sure they exist?"
You can't exactly, as far as I know. The color on the minimap is dependent on the tile itself. Paledit doesn't do anything for that. You could change all the tiles to black tiles which would do what you want, but then everything would be black.
I believe I already said that.
As for PalEdit, it has nothing to do with the minimap directly. The only thing the program does is edit the games color palettes.
Why don't you change the colour of the player on the minimap to be invisible? I'm pretty sure that's possible, but I don't know which colour it is. It does not affect in-game colours.
I know a way that doesn't involve modding at all.
Ask the players in the beginning of the map to pres "Tab".... Lol... Just a suggestion.
Eh, He wan'ts it so that it automatically is at that state. Unless you can make it so that the TAB executes automatically on game start, I don't see how your going to do it.
