I did a little math on some of those sizes and it looks to be so far that 500square kilometers is the biggest map yet or around 200 million pixels.
As dimensions go up the square area grows at a 4 fold rate, quickly making maps beyond 500Sq Km in area apparently too big for the IL2 engine.
It would intereting to see if someone could break this limit, perhaps using a 64 bit system? I am curious whether it fails due to the size of the map file plus windows and all the other programs consuming all available RAM up to the 32 bit XP limit.
