Hello,fellow members of this forum! I would like to know how to bypass the filesize limit in tool(if it's too large,it wont compile).I've read somewhere on this forum that there is way to do so.

tool_pro but it is a very dangerous program. Apparently Jesse the HUD guy had to reformat his computer because of it.
Plus even if you use it the map will exception every few times here and there. So tool_pro isn't a best option. You should just take stuff out of the map to fit it in the limit. |

As far as I know the only way to get passed that filesize limit is using Open Sauce, but it has not been released yet, so you will probably have to wait until CMT releases it.

Your best off waiting for OS. From what I understand Korn plans on releasing it not to far off in the future. CMT is not releasing it or involved in the release.

Quote: --- Original message by: Jesse It's not Tool++ that lets you go over 128 mb for multiplayer maps, it's Tool_pro, which I think is the cause of my PC breaking down completely and needing a new hard drive. I was compiling a map at 128.64 mb and it was taking a very long time, then my PC froze up and the next time I turned it on it had to run chkdsk to try to fix the issue. I managed to backup all of my tags before my PC never worked again :/ So that's my story with Tool_pro (just got my PC back today completely wiped clean) But again, that's just my story. Hope it does not happen to you. |

Tool_pro, despite what others have said, can be helpful when used properly. When OS is officially out then i get it becomes the best way but until then, tool_pro will work. Don't breach the max TAG SIZE or you will have problem. Cache size however, I've had maps 200mb+ without a single exception. RPG_Beta6.2 is 152mb, well above the 128mb limit and is a very stable map as far as I know

Even if OS is out,I'm sure at least one of you know that I have no programming/scripting knowledge.

Some one correct me if I am wrong, but as long as you compile your map with the OS tools, then filesizes should not be an issue, and the OS download just released is an executable that installs those programs. |

You install OS, then use os_tool to compile the map. What you will want to do is type in os_tool build-cache-file-ex "" false false true yourmapnamepathhere. That will compile a .yelo map, and only players with OS installed will be able to use it.
