Bigger Maps? Suffering from ads?

How do I make a random map that is larger than the current gigantic map?

I know that in Smac, you could adjust the size in one of the txt files...but I haven't found anything in the files that seems to let me do it...

I would really like a bigger map because of I use 15-20 civs ever game...Thanks!

I think I answered my own question...I snooped a bit closer, and here is what I found:

ctp2_data\default\gamedata\const


# 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 90 180 2

I changed the GIGANTIC map size from 70-140 to the above...I haven't played on it yet, so we'll see how it goes with 16 civs...

Hypotesis:
maybe they tuned down the enourmous map (which is just slghtly bigger than the previuous one) to avoid stressing low end PC performance...
... just a thought.

Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

well, in the game I started with my new "larger" map, I have 18 civs...so far the game is chugging along pretty nicely...I'm at about 500 AD...

I don't think people with lower-end machines should try this though...I've got a 800MHz Dell, 64 MB DDR Video Memory, 128 DRAM memory...pretty nice machine...
