Multiplayer maps bigger than 8MB????

Guys is it possible to make map bigger than 8MB and still to be playable something like MOd for Warcraft III? like Starcraft Universe for Starcraft 2??

im pretty sure you cant, of what i have heard people is very angry because of that

I've heard protector destroys map size. Not sure thats correct but I think it is.

i heard it can be done, the only way to do this is
make a different archive (editing the default wc3 mpq) and add all your models and attachment (everything) in the mpq
but i also heard that this way is illegal

 

[Chaosy]

if you put it in your mpg does'nt that make that all who want to play the map needs your mpq? because your missing all the data?

 

[rysnt11]

That's why the map with mpq need to be uploaded with the mpq, or the people can't play the game

 

[Chaosy]

yes i agree, just though it was kinda weird

Well, a map (forgot the name) has been using it for their project, the map it self only contains the triggers and terrains, the unit's model is come from an external mpq
