In the IWD make it so that it is in the images folder and place it in the mod folder like he said. I tried again realizing I didn't put it in the images folder. Ran it and it works fine. Thanks for the help!

yeh its in the images folder, its technically not listed as an iwi though :-? does that matter?

No, not okay. Either you changed the file name or you did not get the image file from /raw/images

You are absolutely correct my fellow, thanks it works now

Good to hear :)

I have read all the posts, but im still pulling my hair out.

I cant run my map as developer in MP.

I saved it and compiled it as a normal name map (sp?)

I enter /exec minimap and the hud is removed.
I enter cr_minimap_height 10000 and then ......

Nothing ?

The only thing that happens is i can no longer look up!!

I really need to get this done as my first map is nearly finished. So i ask for help

Make sure you also ticked "developer_script" in compile tools or added it to your shortcut (if you started cod4 in this way).

the command is:
/set scr_minimap_height 10000

Agreed with Sevenz, although, in my opinion you should use
/scr_minimap_height 10000

The only reason I suggest this is because if it is not working and you use /set it will create the variable. If you don't use /set then it will only change the variable if it already exists currently. This will allow you to know if you did something wrong.

If it does not work, bring down console and see what the error is. I had the error just after I typed in /set scr_minimap_height_10000. Same thing happened to me. I couldn't look up or anything. See what it tells you in red. My bet is something about there is not exactly two minimap_corner on the map. Which is the error I got before. At that point, do what Sevenz said about using the entity tool to find your origins and make sure you don't have three or more (like I did).

Ive read lot about the problem i have.

Do the Minimap corner entitys need to be an exact square???

And i have read thats its a vista 64 bit issues how valid is that?


One other thing i cant use : Make sure you also ticked "developer_script"

Cause my MP map wont load i get an error on loading the map...
