OLD MINIMAP

=====================================================================================================================


After months of work and bug fixes, I’m pleased to present the new version of Fog of War Minimap for RPG Maker MZ.
(Screenshot and gif are in original position, but you can move Minimap in 4 positions, don't worry)
Fully customizable via RPG Maker's Event system. We've made it compatible with the Quest system.

3 Shape Type

What about Border?

Do you wanna see the difference?
• Simple:

• Double


── NEW FEATURES v9.0 ────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

FULLSCREEN MAP Hold M (or configurable key) to expand the minimap

to fullscreen with a smooth animation.

Press again to return to normal size.



IMAGE ICONS Use custom PNG images for icons:

<img:fileName> → loads img/pictures/minimap/fileName.png

Automatic sizing, integrated cache.



SOFT FOG The fog dissolves softly at the edges instead of

pixel‑hard clipping. Activable from parameters.



RADIUS OVERLAY Tag <radius:5:#FF0000> draws a circle of radius 5

tiles around the event. Perfect for bosses, dangers,

safe zones, guard ranges.



VARIABLE TIMER Tag <timer:VAR_ID> shows a countdown near the icon

based on the value of an MZ variable.



PROXIMITY FLASH Tag <flash> makes the icon blink when the player

enters the proximity radius.



MINIMAP PAN Plugin Command panTo X Y — the minimap slides

animatedly toward that coordinate for Duration frames,

then returns to the player automatically.



TOOLTIP HOVER On desktop, move the mouse near an icon to display

the event's name/label. Activable from parameters.



QUEST BURST When an objective is completed, a burst of particles

explodes on the minimap at that point.



THEME PRESETS 5 ready‑to‑use visual themes:

dark / fantasy / scifi / minimal / gold

They override colors and border with a single parameter.

• None = Default


• Dark theme

• Fantasy theme


• scifi theme

• Minimal theme

• Gold theme (I love this one)
