How on gods earth did you manage to get your map over 6g? :O

The reason why our map was gigantic was because there actually was 5000 images in our image folder. Also we ported just about everything from Black Ops 2 and lastly the map is gigantic and highly detailed. I was just as surprised to hear from the mapper that it was over 6 gigs and these are the reasons why. To solve, we have managed to mainly get rid of some huge textures/images that we were not using and got rid of some usless files to drastically reduce file size. I hope this makes more sense now.

Well if you had 5000 images and 'everything ported from BO2' how on Earth did you get the map to load??
You would be WAAAY over both the WAW image and model limit....

That was my thoughts exactly. I don't want to make assumptions here, but the mapper(s) may have bitten off more than they can chew. I am really starting to wonder how this will be able to transfer over, especially if there is more to be added!?

This is why we were having an error for about 2 weeks. We were over the model limit. This really should not be something to focus on. Most Black ops 2 images have been removed, we only needed some textures such as the lava and some mob of the dead models. I would rather you not comment on the gigantic map size and rather comment on what we could add to make the map better or things we should improve on. Thanks!

Sorry, but that is not something that can be avoided. The size of the map would obviously bring focus. No other map has ever breached the 1 gigabyte mark before, with JBirds maybe being the closest with 600+mb I believe.

Something coming in at 6 gig is going to get discussed whether it is wanted or not. The size is ridiculous!! Still, I am sure the map is still the main focal point.

Like i said yet before compressed it is 500 mb but it can definitely be lowered more, dont worry about it, we got it all under control.

Not much to go on as far as images but from what I see there it looks like some excellent mapping. I'll be looking forward to seeing progress in the future.

y do you always steal my words saje

Ah... then my apologies. I thought the 6 gig WAS the compressed size. lol. (oops  )

FS, if you guys need an extra voice/writer - ill gladly help out with the project. Im very good with ideas and story-line, as well as voice overs. If i could get some more info on the map backstory and character info, i can wip up 2 pages of story-line right off the bat! Anyway, this map looks extremely superb with the amount of detail and theme! Im definitely going to keep my eye on this one.

I will start now, might be done next week (gotta think about the location you gave us and all that stuff) a detailed map deserves a detailed story-line! As for characters, i could come up with some ideas but if you already have certain ones planned (i would need some info) i could add back-story and personality. if you want, i could also do some research on guns from the time period and come up with a rough gun-list. As you said, once i have it typed and finalized ill email it to you. Btw, im loving the bo2 models your adding! (motd corpse bag, origins "corpse on a stake", other textures and what not...)
