Followed the tut. When I enter /exec minmap in the console it takes away the HUD but it doesn't go to the top of the map. I have tried to set height to the height of map ceiling but to no avail. If I raise my ceiling, it would make my map too large to compile without getting memory errors. Does anyone have a suggestion for this?

I had the very same issue. Unfortunatly for you, I didnt do anything differently other than go through and redo everything. Compile, reflections, zone, ff etc. The only thing is you must have the developer options selected when you run the map. I generally have all three selected. First time I tried this, it didn't work. Second time it worked fine when trying to take the screenshot. Double check that you definatly have the scrip_origins with targetname value of "minimap_corner". They must stay in the map as this aligns the minimap image with these script_origins as anchors. Make sure you spawn into the map as a player BEFORE entering the commands into the comsole. Actually, the more I think about it I think this is what made it work. You HAVE to have spawned. Try it again

I had the same problem and i fixed mine. Mke sure that u created 2 script/orgins with a targetname of minimap_corner. Make sure those are in 2 oppsite corners of ur map IN PLAYING AREA (not out in skybox) . Also click on update zone files make sure that if u have the material,minimap.cfg in the missing assets. Take that out and save and build fastfile. mine wouldnt work bec i had that file in there and when i took it out it worked. After all of that make sure u compile if u didnt have the minimap_corners in the right place. Try that and see if that works
