Map upload size limit
Posted: Fri Apr 13, 2018 5:53 pm
Hello,
So with the recent patches, there is bound for issues to appear. Fortunately, the issues were solved just days after, however, there is always something that makes one or many dissatisfied. And I am bringing up one of them, which is the map upload size limit.
Now that 1.29 arrived, Blizzard made so that Warcraft III will no longer read file extensions ending with (.mix) meaning that maps which rely on so-called "packs/external files" have to be put into the map, therefore, increasing its size. Some prime examples are Choice Battle, AFB or MVB.
By doing this we somehow managed to compress it under 256MB, but there is no meaning if we are incapable of uploading it to ENT, since we only play on the ENT bots. I believe the issue is the map size limit when you upload maps to ENT (confirmed it).
So I suggest and hope that you will increase the limit as well, thanks.
