@eightcore try this:
RADAR TOGGLE KEY = Alt

@shifuguru Doesn't work. Honestly, this mod has way too many issues:

The trigger key can't be changed to e.g. Alt. The S key always triggers the map (probably related with DPAD-DOWN being the trigger on the controller). The minimap keeps reappearing by itself all the time and won't go away until you press the trigger key and wait for the configured time (SHOW DURATION) has passed.

The last issue is the worst, obviously. I made a video to demonstrate the problem. The minimap keeps reappearing. To get rid of it again, I press the DPAD-DOWN button on the controller (visible through the zoom-out that happens in the minimap). But the maps keeps coming back. I think it happens everytime a new icon (Ammu-Nation, car wash, missions) is being displayed. That's my guess, because it's happening less often when leaving the city.

Do you have the latest version of the mod, 1.4?
I will download my mod and test this again, I might have an update for it.

Yeah, latest version. I'm not very confident that the HUD reappearing is fixable. There are a few other HUD-hiding mods out there and they all struggle with the same issue. The mitigate the situation with a function that runs every 100 ms and removes the hud on each loop. But it's reappearing nevertheless, albeit just for a short amount of time. Not really better than the situation with your mod.

I think the only viable way would be to change the actual HUD setting (the one that you can change in the game's options) somehow via SHV. NativeTrainer also allows for hiding the HUD. Maybe that could be an inspiration? It probably does so via memory patching, I guess?

Okay, after testing it, you cannot use Left Alt. This is set by the game.
As far as the mod not working, it has been working flawlessly for me so not sure what other mods you have that might be conflicting.
I will release a new version and maybe you can test it.
I recommend deleting the VanishingHUD.ini between mod updates.

@eightcore The problem is unfortunately with the game.

V1.5 released - Added the Save method after Loading Settings on Mod begin.

can you add an option to hide police blips. thanks

@shifuguru Unfortunately, it hasn't gotten better with V1.5. The map is reappearing exactly as shown in my previous video. I removed all other mods, but the issue has not changed. So you're not able to reproduce the issue when following these steps?

- Set Vehicle Radar Enabled to false, so that the minimap is hidden when driving
- Drive through the upper part of Los Santos

****

Additionally, the mod now creates a default INI file with bad values:

[OPTIONS]
MENU TOGGLE KEY = Alt
RADAR TOGGLE KEY = Z

Since the Alt key is not available to the mod, you cannot open the mod menu now. So you have to start the game, close it after the INI has been created and then change the INI manually to have the menu toggle key mapped to a key that's actually working.

Thanks, sorry it's late here :D
The issue is with the game, not with the mod.

@shifuguru Can you please have a video?

@Nguyen Quang Video added :)

@shifuguru
It seems that you're not using the vanilla minimap. Could this be the cause for the issue (regarding the minimap reappearing) not occuring on your end?

If you're interested: The new mod "MiniMap & Vehicle Controller" manages to reliably hide the minimap without it reappearing. Maybe you want to take a look at this mod.

@shifuguru hey, the old version is still set as the current one and I would suggest putting the latest changelog in the description so people can find it easier

@Michael21107 yeah waiting for feedback on mod’s functionality. I’ll be releasing a new version once I find a fix for the radar showing after pressing the ‘S’ key. The next version will also come with a method to toggle the big map.

@shifuguru I understand, but I think, that the changelog should still be in the description and the latest version that isn't marked as ''experimental'' in any way should be set as the current one

@Michael21107 Ah right sorry I missed that :D
I've fixed that now, thanks!

@shifuguru all good, thank you

@eightcore
Had a look at the code, it uses HIDE_HUD_AND_RADAR_THIS_FRAME, mine changes DISPLAY_RADAR which is the desired effect.
I could potentially add a toggle for hiding all of the HUD as well as the RADAR?
