Map Modding: Larger Map?

[Thure]

Would it be possible to make a larger map with MapUtility?

Like for exemple a map with a size of 32,768x16,160? Both numbers are multibles of 32 which is one requierement as far as I know. And how would I do it technically?

editing a map is really hard; I myself just can add provinces to the DH Full map, and even this with lot of work.

so, technically it is possible, see the E3 map, but i also can't tell you how. Maybe you have to ask the E3 creaters.

Can't go wrong with the E3 map, unless you want EVEN MORE PROVINCES to which case I would like to ask you where you buy your supercomputers for cheap.

Can Darkest Hour use a larger map, but not with provinces, but in width and length?
I mean if we take the E3 map and use something twice that large, than the small provinces would be more visible.
Or would it be impossible/unfeasible?

Exactly something like this. And it would allow us to make the Atlantic ocean and America more reasonable. Currently America is moved northward to make it fitting on the map. America is way to farth north.

so, there was once a mod were the map was an Alien planet - so basically it would be possible. But afaik you would have to redraw the whole map to achieve that.

I don't think you can use a larger map. If you extract the the Vanilla Hoi2 map, the DH Map and the E3 Map you always get the same number of extracted map, which all have the same size. Having said that, I haven't tried to draw a larger map. But really, most PCs already have problems with the E3 Map. An even bigger map would probably slow down the game to a crawl.
