But if the Philippines map is the largest that IL2 will load

No, I never said it's the largest size that IL2 would load... only that it was the largest size giving me a valid newMW_map_c.tga, above 14400 x 14400 ---> newMW_map_c.tga of 1K...

But there is a new tool for making map_c of larger size (see posts)... I didn't try yet...
