Gigamaps

PurpleWyrm · November 28, 2000, 19:12

I've been away from the forum for a looooong while and seem to have missed the advent of gigamaps. So I'm just wondering what kind of size limitations they have, how they're made and if there's anything else I should know about them.

I'm happy to be pointed to other threads or URLs if everyone's sick of the subject by now

Giga-maps size is 35657 or something that high.

Don't get the gigamap they have for download here. Ask someone in the Civ2-Multiplay forum for the map 'diplomap.mp' it is a better gigamap.

Actually, the giga-map here is the first EVER giga-map. My favorite is the jtworldh.mp There is an old thread here for playtesters.

The maxi size for ToT or MGE is actually 32767.
There are already 3 good maps, as I just explained in another topic (new gigamap).
