Increased Map Size

Post by Senior Drill »

The 1km square (120 x 120 mega tile) maps from RtB, CCM and CCMT work in TLD once a BDT file is created them. Mafi's yet to be named BDT/Strat Map editor can easily make a .bdt file for those maps and when inserted into TLD in place of an existing map (with the same map number and exit/entry VL's), they play fine. Not that such a big map would make for a good battle with only 15 teams, but there could be unique situations in a mod.

Yet to be experimented on is if the 1 x 4 km "big maps" will load in either Madi's editor or TLD, whether TLD will support a 1 km x <some fraction between 1 and 4> km map, and whether an operation or campaign involving multiple large size maps exceeds the saved file size limits that existed in pre-CCM releases.

We shall see....!
C'est magnifique, mais ce n'est pas la guerre.
