Guest | I wasn't sure where exactly I should place this, so I decided that this forum was just vague enough to work. I was playing around in World Editor and made a new map that was 480x480 in size. Completely blank, a clean slate, with nothing imported etc. etc. I checked the file size of this blank map and it was a whopping 8 megabytes. o_O What's the practical use for a map this big? On that note, why is it so big? It has nothing in it! A normal, blank map is what? 50k in size? Why is this thing almost 160 times larger? Am I missing something that's making it so ludicrously huge? I'd really like to use this map size, but the average Battle.net user isn't going to wait to download a map of that size. |

I can't help you, sorry, but just by the way, the BNET map size limit is 5 MB I think(or was it 3?) |

mmm i dont know why its doing that but take this into consideration 128x128 is average size and when a map that size is finished its usualy about 1-2meg...... ur map size however is like a whole campaign. In a map. Think about it. |
