Description Anders Dahnielson 2008-05-24 22:33:25 CEST

"One problem you might encounter with Black Grand is that libgig doesn't
currently support saving files that are larger than 2 GB, that is, it can't
create the .gx01, .gx02 files."

Hmmm, as far as I can see it, gig files larger than 2 GB can be saved. It will not be splitted into extension files (gx01, .gx02), but since the wave pool in recent gig file format version has large file support and since most operating systems have large file support as well nowadays, this should not be an issue anymore.

Or is it?

Feature had been fully implemented in the meantime. It is now even possible to save gig files larger than 4 GB.
