How to make whole map invisible (Dark)

[Coolio]

Hello guys.
I'm making a RPG map so I wanna now how to make the entire map invisible so players could not see anything anywhere unless they have been there, like in the campaign of Warcraft III.

Sorry for my English, I hope you understood

Well, if they don't have one of their units in an area, it shouldn't be visible.

Here you go, isn't it like this by default though?

Events
Map Initialization
Conditions
Actions
Visibility - Disable Black Mask
Visibility - Disable Fog of War.

 

[Coolio]

no it's not by default Thanks

 

[Coolio]

it didn't maked it invisible, but it maked everything visible instead
i tried to enable both of them but it didn't worked

Wait-you want it all black until your units go there, right? Shouldn't it be like that from the default?

 

[Cheesy]

Disable, not Enable.

 

[Coolio]

yes nabbig i want it to be invisible until some1 step into it.

i know cheesybeefy i tried to disable both of them and the event was map initialization, the whole map was absolutely visible, i could see units too

and no it's not by default

Strange, do you have any units with lots of vision? Or shared vision with a unit at a very high place?

Scenario -> Map Options -> uncheck Masked areas are partially visible

Edit: And do not disable Black Mask and Fog of War. That will only make everything visible at all times, but you have already noticed that.

i found the problem and it was my fault

Visibility - Create an initially Disabled visibility modifier for (Picked player) emitting Visibility across (Entire map)

this was causing entire map to get visible for 2 seconds, dunno why, thanks builder bob it worked, and i think the way cheesebeefy offered should work too

 

[Cheesy]

Ahhh woops, sorry, my way is to allow you to see everything. It should be Enable, not Disable. My bad!
