How do I...

Create a map with a size of 480 x 480? The most I can seem to create with some of the editors is 480 x 128.

WEU can do that.

I have tried WEU but 480 x 128 is still the maximum size. I tried to create a map with the WEU Enhancer but I keep getting an error regarding MSSTDFMT.DLL. I've tried downloading the MSSTDFMT.DLL but I still can't get it to work. Whenever I run WEU NoLimits while World Editor is open I get an error and I'm forced to close World Editor. Ugh, I'm getting a headache.

I meant that program that doesn't work on your comp. I don't know if WE-No-Limits can do that. Maybe PitzerMike can help you with WEU.

WEU cannot make 480x480 maps. I tried it yesterday and the max size is 480x128.

Couldn't you just open the .w3e and change it directly?

You can do it with the WEU Enchancer.

Hex editing the W3E file MIGHT work, but I have never tried that.

That is funny. My WE Enhancer doesn't let me. When I set either the X or Y value to 480 it sets the other to 128. Maybe I altered some of the custom files that came with it without realising. I'll go look into it.

Also, I just tried it and you can change a map size to 480 x 480 through hex editing TerrainData.w3e, but it is kinda complicated and I don't have time to write a tutorial.

I got WEU Enhancer to work but the limit is 480x128 for me as well 35263526. I suppose I'll just have to figure out how to create a map with 480x480 with hex editing.

Hmm... I realized WEU Enhancer can create maps of 480 x 480. You just have to type the value in, instead of selecting it from the scroll down menu.

Thankyou so much. I never would have figured that out.

I already have some reports that 480 x 480 DOES work. But I'm not sure if I should allow that size as long as it's not entirely tested.

Could you tell me if it worked for you?

I can edit and and play the 480x480 map fine. However, I have not tried it on Battle.net...
