Map size larger than 480x480

[Sickle]

NewGen/umswe/umswecore.lua

umswe.applyini(wedata,"WorldEditMisc","MaximumMapSize","480")

Clearly you can see what I changed.

Well I was looking around in the LUA files of UMSWE, and tried fiddling with some values. I had no luck though.

480x480 gives you 230400 unit's of space to work with. I still fail to see the point of a bigger map.

To answer your question. No, there is not way to make maps bigger.

I don't know how to make it larger than 480x480.


But what you could is reduce the size of everything. To like 0.3 scaling value and you'll have tons of room :thup:

No chance to increase more then 480x480...
Even with 480 it's lagggy .
I used about 300 and was working on terain 40% and ..... Buggy......

Newgen can extend the map bounds to 480x480 because it's actually possible for the game engine to handle that map size. The 480 limit is hardcoded, unlike the smaller "limit" the regular world edit allows. That's why you can't extend it further than 480x480.

What does this mean?

 

[LearningCode]

Or you could zoom in the camera + the reduced scaling value thing.

Don't overdo it though.
The terrain will begin looking weird.

That's something I thought of when I was making thinking of making a map, some time ago, it's a good idea, except cliffs are really, really huge.

Huge cliffs are awesome.

Lol, ok well I am using 480 x 480 and 1/2 scaling but the terrain tiles are bigger now and look a little off but w/e. Thanks for the help guys!

No problem, glad you found a solution
