max island size?

[aaman]

With Visitor you could make bigger islands than with wrptool.

Have anyone tried to make 2048x2048 with windows 64 bit?
Or at least tried to open up the 2 gig ram memory limit in windows 32 bit, and then try to make a 2048x2048 map?
What?



Here is how you do it.


This guide does not only apply if your system has more than 2GB of memory. The RAM is only the physical memory while the memory the OS provides is virtual memory that also uses your page file.


Windows XP:


Start=>Run=>Enter sysdm.cpl and press ENTER
In the new form click
Advanced=>Startup and Recovery Settings=>Edit

Now you're editing the boot.ini. Be careful and do exactly(!) what is written here.
Search for the entry of your operating system and add "/3GB /USERVA=2800" at the end of the line. The whole thing should now look similar to:


[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Micro soft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect /3GB /USERVA=2800



Windows Vista:



Click on Start->All Programs->Accessories
Now right click on Command Prompt and select "Run as administrator"

Now the command prompt should open where you type the following command:

bcdedit /set IncreaseUserVA 2800

Now press enter and reboot your system.






Windows 7:


Click on Start->All Programs->Accessories
Now right click on Command Prompt and select "Run as administrator"

Now the command prompt should open where you type the following command:

bcdedit /set increaseuserva 2800

Now press enter and reboot your system.





Tell me if it worked.

Edit:

Just tested it, what i find out was.
The visitor dont crash if the map is 2048x2048 140x140 km and you only have a landmass in that map that is 1024x1024 52x52 km (or similar) that you fill with textures.
If you fill 2048x2048 landmass with textures, the visitor will crash.
Now i wonder, what about visitor 1?
Im sure had heard of 140x140 km maps before.
