[General] Map extensions

[Garodar]

I was always wondering how people manage to extend maps higher than 256x256. Some manage to get it on 480x480 and I do know that it causes massive crashes, but I'm still wondering how.

Does it use the UI data as well? Lemme know.

They use Jass NewGen Pack(JNGP), it's an extension for the world editor. I dont think maps crash because of the map size though.

Here is a link to the latest version

Maps made with JNGP can run on normal warcraft but cannot be edited without it, just a note.
