Map size

[kruzerg]

already tried compress using optimizer, remove any icon and model i didnt needed
mdx squisher any model (if model once squished its cant be squished anymore, even if i do the size only decreases 1 kb)

blp optimizer (tried compress around 9 blp files only decreases around 10-12 kb so i think dont need to compress blp files)

in the end my map size at 7,6-7,8 mb after compress
at this rate i cant update my map anymore like add new heroes, model, etc

i dont want use map size no limit though cause its illegal

Well, then you have no options.

 

[kruzerg]

is this the limit and the end of my world?

"its illegal"
It's not. You won't get sued by Blizzard for using it.

 

[kruzerg]

Do you use music in your map?
Try to find the thing that takes up the most space.
Music is that ussually.
The import manager should be able to tell you.

 

[kruzerg]

the most taking lot of space is model

the most taking lot of space is model

You mean "Custom Texture".

 

[kruzerg]

yeah is there anyway to reducing it greatly?

 

[The_Silent]

Reduce texture quality, wc3 viewer should be able to this; but one at a time.

Reduce texture quality, wc3 viewer should be able to this; but one at a time.

I don't have faith in wc3 viewer, so I recommend Changing to a picture format (e.g. .png) and reducing quality and Again Converting to .blp.

can you teach me step by step to changing format style? thanks
