AKA The black minimap of doom

Does anyone have that same problem??

I dont know if you can see in my replay, but I dont see my minimap :/

that was my 3rd match, and I didnt have that problem the first 2 matches. Strange.

http://www.sc2rc.com/index.php/replay/show/6221

sc2rc is having problems because it cant recognize 3v3 and 4v4,... and that replay was a 1v1 btw. strange...

Same here, I thought maybe it was a new "feature"...

So far the problem is only during replays, so maybe it's to help players protect their strategies a little better?

I've had this problem in my last game too. Afterwards i restarted the game and in the replay the minimap showed just the way it is supposed to be.
I hope they fix this because it is really kinda difficult to play without a map. (For example in the replay i could see that i walked right by his proxy but of course didnt notice since i had no map to see it on and i wasnt watching my scout during those seconds)

So... It seems random. Some players can, some not. Sometimes it does it for the same player, and then works again. And then it might be in ladder, replays, or anything else.

I was sad about infested terran being on overseer and costing 125 energy instead of 25... and now this :/

It is not the same bug as you said. If I saw that thread before posting, I would gladly post it there if the OP updated his post for everyone to see all bugs.

Same problem - once it happens once (either in game or during a replay) it stays. I have to restart to get rid of it.

Have you tried playing without minimap? and with a buggy minimap that doesnt even jump to where you click? You have to manually scroll over to your opponent base.

I had it in only one game. I've also had the game act like I dc'd but not show the 'waiting for' window, just stops everything and lets me keep moving around the map and clicking shit, but nothing happens. The internet conn is fine, and when I end task to get out of the hung SC I dont take a loss >.>

This just happened to me. I played 3 4v4 games and it was fine, but in my 1v1 game there was no minimap which made it VERY hard to try to send units around the map as I had to use my mouse to scroll over to the other player's base. I was in the bottom left in blistering sands and if I clicked to the top right it would send me back to my base :\

It happens to me all the time also, i simply CANT watch a replay with a working minimap and ingame works half the time, whorst part is when i click on the black minimap to direct on myself it drags me waaaay down in the corner of the map making it impossible to see OR use to minimap at all.

p.s; i made a map on US called Tyranny, a 2player melee map, go check it out and tell me what you think! thanks

I think the problem is with Starcraft and not anything you guys are doing. I can see the minimaps just fine on previous versions of Starcraft, just not on the newer version's replays.

Don't alt tab when loading

I agree with Fiel, I didn't do anything strange like alt-tabbing when loading For now, it feels very random.

Wow, just played the most frustrating game I've ever played. I didn't play all weekend so I've been playing people on a lower skill level than me and I get into this match without a minimap. I'm trying to do Blink micro while scrolling across the map to find my Stalkers. I thought it would be finally over once I got my shrine up, but then he dropped me and targeted my shrine right before I finished as I helplessly tried to select my army and give them minimap commands. ;_;

Blizzard please fix now!!

Try changing it to Fullscreen(windowed mode) and then ALT+tabbing out of game then opening it up again. it fixes the black mini-map for me.

... what is this "fullscreen" and "windowed mode" you speak of. I think I remember knowing how to do something like that for another game I played, but it eludes me. Will try the alt- tabing if it happens again, thanks.

I got this in my last placement. Not only is it completely black, but clicking on it always sends you to the same corner of the map, so it's not functional in the least.

Since Patch 13, I have no minimap in replays if I launch them from within SC2. But if I start the replay from outside SC2 (associate .SC2Replay files with SC2.exe or SC2Switcher), I have a minimap and it's fine.

Thankfully it has never affected me in-game so far.

But Fullscreen Windowed mode Alt-Tabbing fixes it?

I know right. Playing without a minimap is impossible.
I just got it, lost, and am super tight. I'm pretty much sore loser as it is, and when I lose something and it's not even my fault, well, that's even worse.

Whatever, I hope Blizzard get's their act together soon.

because the normal reflex with no minimap that as well is bugged would be to leave the game immediately

I had it in 2 games.
One was a 3v3, where i just mass expanded and gave my allies resources.

And one game (1v1), my opponent could see, I couldn't but I still won :D

happened to my brother in a 2v2 just then. He set up a few key locations with the f keys
backspace = his main and natural
f5) his rally point
f6) my base
f7) enemy base 1
f8) enemy base 2

We were also on vent and anywhere else he needed he would quickly tell me and i would ping so he could press space to center on it.

Very very hard to handle, we did loose but it would better than just GG at the start.

If you open the replay without opening the game (open with...) then the mini map shows.

I believe this happens in any game/replay immediately after viewing the replay menu, thus all replays viewed through the client are bugged; but if you just open the replay without opening SC2 first, it isn't bugged. So if you don't want the BMMoD, avoid browsing your replay menu. If you must, just restart the client after doing so.

This happens to me in replays too, but it happened once on a 2v2. Couldn't click the minimap while I was playing, so I had to use commandgroups for everything. That was really hard, we ended up losing.

had a black minimap today... was PvT on steppes of war
luckily he tried to cheese me with barracks rush right in front of my base, killed that with a few zealots and then marched into his main and won w/out a map^^ but if it was a bigger map and/or longer game probably would have lost because of that

I used that program to remap my keyboard shortcuts, so I can save 8 map locations now. So when I do get the black minimap in game, I can just quickly make 8 saved map points and be able to go from there.

I watch all my replays from sc2Allin1 now, and the minimaps work fine that way, but they are all black if I run them from within the actual game.

They seriously need to get this crap fixed ASAP. I refuse to play any ladder 1v1 games until it does get fixed. I'm bad enough *with* a minimap, so I don't want to lose to people because of a minimap issue.

It seems to happen to me once in every three or four games or replays, not sure what the cause is but it has only been happening post Patch 13, wasn't there a topic on this already by the way?

Try changing it to Fullscreen(windowed mode) and then ALT+tabbing out of game then opening it up again. it fixes the black mini-map for me.

Can somebody confirm this? Doesn't fix it for me in replays.

Today I had to forfeit 4 games because I didn't want to play w/o the minimap. I now only play ladder games after restarting the client. Which is annoying, but so far I was always able to see the minimap.

Happens to me all the time. I was doing some scrims with my friend and had the black minimap twice. Watching the replays I had black minimaps almost every time.
Until I write you again, take care of your precious person.

That happened to me in a 2v2 game with my friend, was so ridiculous. After the game I just killed the client and restarted.
I'm going to sleep, let me get some of that carpet.

I don't know if this trend is consistent with everyone else, but everytime i go into the replay menu (not necessarily viewing a replay) then go into a game, I get the black minimap. So i just try avoiding watching replays in game now and just drag replays onto the shortcut when I want to watch them.
