Big file size problem

Fat32 has an absolute limit of 2Gb on any file. Even if you get it to work this 'mod' wil be unplayable on anything but Win 2000/XP systems using NTFS.

He said 7000 kb. 2Gb = 2,000,000 kb, so he's got some components to add before he breaks Win9x file size compatibility.

Oops, got confused by all the constant switching of abbreviations and other shorthand notations. 7 Mb is still a very large components file.

Its not that big. Adamant has just 5 paradigms and has a 5.6 MB file.

Add in some basic tech grids, the components file explodes.

Actually, it is Fat16 that has a 2gb limit; Fat32 goes all the way to 4gb. A patched/service packed Windows 95/98 should be able to use Fat32, though I'm not sure if support for these partitions is actually standard on those OS.
