Map Size question.

Before I get into phase 3 of my RPG map. I was wondering if anyone has tried chaging the size of the map bigger than what its allowed in the editor. I know you can use the Map Size Hack but has anyone actually created a map thats bigger than what you are allowed and not have it crash or give you problems like slowdows. I want my map to be the biggest possible size without having any problems.
Thanks

I too was wondering about this because when I try to make the map bigger with the W3M map util it defaults back to the size I had it before whgich is already the max.. So it's not making it any bigger like I want it too..

That doesn't let you go above the WE limit. I need something that will let me change a current map size and make it bigger. Any ideas would be cool

Download W3M Map Utilities at http://w3m_eng.wo.to/

You can use it to patch the map size.

- Set minumum map size to 32
- Set maximum map size to 480
(Note total size restrictions still apply)

That's quoted from the readme.. And have you tried it? Cause I did and it didn't work... I want a map bigger than the normal WE limit which is 36,000 cells. I want 40000 cells.. which isn't too many more..

Yeah... A cityscape 220x220 map, could you make it, then send the file, so i can open it with my norm editor?


"Unable to locate worldedit.exe to patch" .. that's what it says when i try to open UMSWE3.5

It's easy to make a plain map all you do is run the W3M Utils and edit the Map size in that and when you make a new map it'll have that map size.. But here's the 224x224 map all you gotta do is change the tileset and everything.

like I said I want to resize an already made map not make a new one larger than standard.. I already know how to make a new one that is bigger than the limit. I just didn't do it before I made this first map..
