Ultra-Large Maps: Crusade 2.1

[exeter0]

Hi,
I have installed the Crusade 2.1 update... does it support ultra-large maps?

If not can I increase the map size? I changed the map.txt file settings but it didn;t have an effect.

Great job on the mod btw!

MedPack2 does not have Ultra Gigantic Map support, it just has a setup that supports huge maps. The settings that tells the map generator the size of the to generate map can be found for MedPack2 Large Civs version can be found in a file called MM2L_gamefile.txt in your ..\ctp2_data\gamedata\default\ folder. Search for this block in the file:

#
# These map size settings must all be defined,
# and in this order
#
MAP_SIZE_SMALL        26    52    2
MAP_SIZE_MEDIUM    48    96    2
MAP_SIZE_LARGE        64    128    2
MAP_SIZE_GIGANTIC    70    140    2 

And replace it by this one:

#
# These map size settings must all be defined,
# and in this order
#
MAP_SIZE_SMALL        26    52    2
MAP_SIZE_MEDIUM    48    96    2
MAP_SIZE_LARGE        70    140    2
MAP_SIZE_GIGANTIC    140    280    2 

Now you have to replace the according map.txt. I would use one of Cradle or ApolytonPack the Cradle file is called CRAB_map.txt and the Apolyton one is called APOLUL_map.txt.

Now you have make it so that MedPack2 Large Civs version will use the map.txt. Therefore open the MM2L_gamefile.txt and find there an entry like map.txt and replace it by CRAB_map.txt if you have Cradle or APOLUL_map.txt if you have ApolytonPack installed. If necessary and you don't have neither Cradle nor ApolytonPack I can attach one of these files.

It worked!... but are you sure you didn't mean I needed to change the MM2L_const.txt file?

I assumed this is the file you meant... so I changed that one.
