hey, i'am doing a wowlike map , and its szie was 15mb but i couldn't host it,
does anyone know hwo to host more than 8.30mb?
+REP for helping.

You couldnt host it as in no one joined or as in it crashed when you hosted the game.

The maximum map size WC3 allows to be hosted is 8MB. You will need to remove imports from your map until it fits in that limit. You may be able to save space by compressing music or images further than they already are (of course, reducing their quality, too).

P.S. In the forum rules, it states that you are expected to give your threads descriptive titles, not generic titles such as "please help me", and that you are expected to search for answers before asking a question, and I know that this question has been asked before...

If you upload the map, i can look it over for things that take up memory that are unnecessary

Weep-
Sorry...
InfinateAnswers-

And if i make the map a campaing could i play it?

You can create custom mpq file with custom model in it or add custom model into zip file . When you make the map , the model you want to use , it's path must have same path in mpq file or the location of the zip file (as "D:\Warcraft III/xxx.zip/xxx.mdl) . All computer must have same mpq file or have same zip file .

uhm you probably imported 2 much stuff extract it all and compress its size ( it takes a bit of the grafic) but the only way

i think you only have to options im sorry

1 make the map size small enough to be hosted over bnet (8MB)
2 make the map single player so you play it by your self

...
so i was asking that ...
well anyway, thank you
but if i create a mpq it would be in world editor all the stuff , right?
then it would take only like 6MB with my custom models right?
if yes, This is awesome!!! XD

Yes , but i suggest you use the zip file , because no one want to download 700mb to play your map .

I really dont know know how does it work so i only can translate for you the post in my forum .

Ex : you have 1 model is : Hero_Wudang.mdx and 7 textures :
yijian_0x.blp với x run 1->7

Create 2 file:

+Import.rar store 7 files. Extract to war folder.
+Normal File map . Change the path of mountain king to path of hero_wudang.mdl

 

[dunce326]

oh i get it now, most of it XD
you need to rar the files then extract them in wc3 folder
then use custom path nad it will work right?
