Big map isn't playable on servers

Hello all,

i have a problem with a macroblock, see here: Macroblock+Items, which doesn't work in the editor.
i use the RPG-Titlepack (use 64x64 Mapsize) and i want to know why you can't place them somewhere.
It would be nice if some of you can check this macro either to see if the problems depends on me or not.

If you need some more informations, just ask.

and btw there are 2 or more macros which don't work either and they aren't as big as this macroblock

thank you for helping :)

EDIT:I used embedded items in the macroblock, guess you need the items too

EDIT: Updated the download-file with the required items

EDIT: Even though the limit is at 2GB for servers and the mapfile has 1,98GB the map won't work. Solution: i reduced many blocks and it's finally working, thank you for all your help!

Yeah. OK. Now before closing this thread, try sharing the newly fixed macroblock with the Embedded item in it without giving the item. Let see if that works.

-i saved the whole map with the embed function as an macroblock
-i put the item folder away
-you can't place the macroblock now

answer: it doesn't work, but if you wanna try it yourself, you can write me a pm or answer here :)

What happens on my side is : I cant place the macroblock, and on rpg map (blank) the macroblock menu bugged and crashed my game.

Also, always take a blank 64x64 map for making a macroblock
that way it avoid any other bugs.

that is really strange.

i put a whole map into this macroblock in 64x64 and put it in a blank 64x64 map (I did it in that way, cause the whole map isn't able to be played on a server. i know that the map has almost the limit of the server-size, but even if i reduced another test-version with much less size, it doesn't work either). i used only the items, which can be downloaded in the link.

so my fear come true that the bug isn't able to be determined or to be deleted.

another question: when exactly comes the crash? i mean comes it directly after you clicked on the macro, did you get the crash after placing and waiting for loading the macro or was it between it. can you describe it a bit better please.
