Disabling the minimap in a specific game mode

[Apache Thunder]

I was probably the one that posted it.

Here it is for your enjoyment:

Code: Select all

rem *** Disables MiniMap only in Team Death Match mode. (GPM_TDM) ***
var v_playMode

game.gamePlayMode -> v_playMode

if v_playMode == GPM_TDM

hud.useThumbnailMap 0

endIf

Put it in a con file somewhere in the bf1942/game.rfa for best results. Unless you are only wanting this to be map specific. In which case you can probably put it in the init.con file of the map instead.

Modify the play mode or add play modes if you want to turn off the minimap in other gamemodes. Now the minimap will not appear and instead a cool fade in/out effect occurs when you bring up the fullscreen map.

Very nice. I tried it locally in CQ and it works lovely. Is there a way to disable the full screen map as well ?
