ok so i created a map and i was trying it out on LAN but when i tried creating it a message popped up ''file to big please choose another map''?!?! what the hell??! did i do sumthing wrong or can a map actually be too big to host???

more info: i took a map and increased camera bounds to make the play area bigger....could that be the problem??

You cannot have a map that exceeds like 2+ MB, otherwise the file will be too big and nobody can run it. Either remove some custom models or wav files you don't need or let this problem stay and never be fixed.

WAV files are sound files. Custom WAV/MP3 files each up space. When you edit spells, it doenst do much. Also Custom Models and Skins eat major amounts of space too.

In other words, the custom (imported) files and number you have are what is causing the FILE SIZE too big!
