Creating a Basic MiniMap in Unity 3D - Part1

thankyou! that is so easy!

Nice tutorial, although people with large maps or anything more than a basic game may want to take a different approach, since you're literally rendering the players cam, as well as the entire terrain, which will send the tri count and draw calls through the roof

hey, what was that site for shaders again?

Thanks for sharing! I did this in Unity Free. Must be that they put the function in after 6 years since you made this video :)

why tree wont show in mini map

you could just turn the fog off in render settings

hi can you share this shader kindly...??

thx m8

That's a tiny monitor right there

Thank you for your sharing~I learn so much！

thanks for the mini map cam ^^
ill just drop this lil script i made
<C# MiniMap>
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;

public class MiniMap : MonoBehaviour {
public Transform Target;
public Camera MiniMapCam;


void LateUpdate () {
transform.position = new Vector3 (Target.transform.position.x,39.5f,Target.transform.position.z);
}
void OnGUI(){
GUILayout.BeginArea (new Rect(920,15,25,Screen.height/9));
if (GUILayout.Button ("+")) {
MiniMapCam.orthographicSize -= 10;

}

if (GUILayout.Button ("-")) {
MiniMapCam.orthographicSize += 10;

}
GUILayout.EndArea ();
}
}<C#>

is there a way to make a light that only shows up through the mini map camera because i'm making a kind of mix of Carnivores, Pacific Rim, and Slender, so it's dark but still need a mini map? (nice tutorial, btw XP )
