wc3 map size

[43berries]

I know there's a way to increase the map boundaries to 900x900x900 or something around there. Past 400 like WEU, I know it will be unstable, but I'm willing to take the chance.

Only thing I can think of would be NewGen. I don't know if it lets you do that, though.

Nope, 65536 cells is the absolute limit for the game engine. If there was a 64-bit port of Warcraft 3, then you could have 4294967296 cells, or 65536x65536 dimensions. But that won't be possible until we have a stable 64-bit operating system.

hmm how about 600x600x600?

 

[Ghan_04]

Well, first off, your map is not a cube.

Anyway, I don't think you can go that high. If you need a huge map, a technique you can try is zooming the camera in and shrinking the units.

Ugly textures then...

Wtf 128x128 also means a normal permanent burden to the engine. Well 600x600 maps would blast everything away. Btw, your map needs to be in 32x32 dimensons multiplicator.

Does ~400x400 work?

 

[Shadow_Fox]

Why do you need that much room YE GODS, the WEU imposed dimensions should be fine (Galactic Conquest, example)

You can only size your map up to 480x480 with WEU.
It is the engine's limits, like someone referred already.

It doesnt work at all. Only reasonable sizes are: 32x32,64x64,96x96,128x128,160x160,192x192,224x224,256x256.
And if you want a bigger map try 512x512 or something like that.
And yea the idea of shrinking everything is great just its too much job for one guy.

 

[NoobMapmaker]

WEU doesnt allow more than 256x256.. if u increase W or L any higher it will just lower the other one to compensate. Can't make a square map that big.

We already said everything about the mapsize.
