So i made a new world map

[Ragnarok-X]

well dont me wrong, but im not 56k. I will NEVER ever download 20 or even 50 mb for a map. Even the few MBs when dling Targa's map hurted...

Is there any way you can make it smaller, like max. 10 mb ?!

please ^^ the map looks good...

It's another archive type. Don't worry. I intend to repackage it as a .zip when I upload it to my site.

Ok let me zip it. But will take a while uploading through 128kBit/s dsl upstream.

Don't bother. I can do it on my end just fine.

And my DSL is also 128Kb up. (1.5Mb down)

OK, thanks. I finally grabbed it.

I've repackaged it as a .zip and am uploading to my site as I type this. It'll be ~30-35 minutes before it's ready (128Kb up is slow). It's too bad it needs to be in .zip format, because the .zip is a full 5Mb larger (26Mb) than the .rar (21Mb) ...

Well there is hope. I'm not really satisfied with this map. It looks a little bit too sterile for my taste and has some other quirks.

I was able to get it at over 60KB/sec.
