Hi Michael, This is a well know problem - you need to allocate more memory to the Java heap. See
http://www.vassalengine.org/wiki/doku.php?id=faq_general#the_map_sometime_flashes_onscreen_then_disappears._other_times_it_never_appears_at_all Whenever you use webstart to update VASSAL, the heap limit is reset to 256Mb which is not enough for large maps. Version 3.0 vassal will have some updates to address this problem. Cheers, Brent. *********** REPLY SEPARATOR *********** On 5/03/2007 at 12:52 AM mwilding wrote: I have a module with a large scanned map that is having trouble scaling. When I zoom down (-), certain sections (the map consists of several map file sections) appear blank. I just upgraded the Java Runtime Version to 1.5.0_11. I am not sure if it is a cooincidence that I just started having this problem. Are there limits on how large a map can be in Vassal? I have a gig of RAM so that should not be a problem (the map sections add up to about 10BM JPEG with no compression). Any ideas on how to fix the problem? Thanks.
