how do i make 1? i dont know at all how to use zepirs editor, it confuses me... i downloaded it though, so if thats the way i should do it, plz tell me how. (ps i loaded my map in there, pretty cool 2d display of it, but i cant see any other uses, and it said in the discription that u shouldn't save an already created map in that editor cause ud have to change something after...) |

One thing you can do is extract the editor-related txt files from the mpq of war3 and edit the sizes listed in there (not sure which txt its in though) Really, I suggest you don't make such a alarge map. If you fully populate it, it will lag on any and every machine, and if you don't, it will just be a lot of time walking around empty space. Either way, it doesn't sound very fun to play on. |

eh, well i dont think that would be the case in what im thinking about... have you ever played the game pharaoh? well ive stumbled accross a few peices of knowledge that would help me make a game somewhat like it, but it would require LOTS of space for a multiplayer... but that would be what would make it cool. anyway if someone could tell me, id be thrilled. if you could make a 480x480 map, with dirt in loredean summer, that is editable in WE i will toss say.... 75 pts your way.. just to make it worth your time... i hope that insentive is good enough to get some real help. |

well i dont know how to do it with the new patch but in the old patch u just had to open WorldEditData.txt in the war3.mpq, then scroll down and find map sizes... then set maximum map size to 480X480 and set the startupmap to be 480X480 thats the way i did it :D |

Honestly, I don't remember. That (French?) guy really had a breakthrough just because of the feature of being able to max out WC3s map limit. Not to an ultra extended limit, but enough to work with... Anyway, I missed you talking about Zepir, sorry :). So... Hmm... Can't you just edit the TXT like Extrarius and Chemo said? That way I don't have to DL Zepir and look for myself, heh... Regards Dead-Inside |
