Are 480x480 maps playable on Bnet?

The title says it all.

Are 480x480 (or whatever the limit is) playable on battle net. A rather simple question, I just want a yes or no for clarification. Thanks. :)

NOOO

max is the epic sized map from the world editor.
enhanced maps can onloy be played with the WEU patch.

Dude I can't even make a 480x480 map in WEU.
I'd say NO.

Okay thanks. And I was using NewGen btw to extend the map size limit.

Thanks.

soo large map wont meet 4mb limit, cos empty terrain ~1.1mb

sure it will, make it empty. or do a random generation one

Ahhh, I didnt know NewGen could increase map size.

But yea, What Gorman said made the most sense. I don't even see why anyone would want a 480x480 map anyway

really? epics, especially something like notd, but pretty much anything.

RPGs... they might need a fat-ass world.

Or if you wanted to make the whole world. Such as in a World War 2 map.

But the regular editor max is the max for BNet?

I think you probably can play such large maps on b.net; considering how easy it appears to extend the limit in WE, the 256x256 limit given officially seems somewhat arbitrary. More likely it's limited at this because the game will lag horribly if you go above.

And above 256x256, some of the internal stuff (like creep) gets screwy.

Yes, I was simply wondering. Thanks guys. :)


Ah, thanks. I was worried about those stuff.

you can play maps larger then the standard WE limit, i've done it

Yes you can preload this map
