Are you sure you need a 3 dimensional array?
3D? I only see 2

I am extremely tired, but right now i am under the assumtion that becasue the * is making it a pointer, it is a 3 dimensional array, in ways, ie:
char* name;
can be used to a point like
char name[255];
but then again i am seeing how i am totally wrong most likely, as that is not always the case.

It works! It absoloutly works! Even my stupid old computer's teacher couldn't solve it! [wow]
Thanks! You all got my rating. :)
Now all I have left is to fix to prog and ask these following questions:
1. How did you know that the size of the array is exactly 16MB?
2. How did you know if I do it pointer-less it goes straight into the stack (for temporary use)?
3. Is there a way to incerse the stack's size?
PLease explaing my mistakes, I would like to know from them! :)
You have my thanks again, oh gurus of great computer wisdom.

2000 * 2000 * 4 /1000000 = 16.

Why do you multiply it with 4/100000 ?
The reason I set it to 2000x2000, was because I couldn't determine the size needed for the map before I executed the main project, so I just gave it a big size so that almost every 'map size' that i will want to use will be smaller than that and fit right in the array.
So, how can I determine the size of an inside-class two-dimensoinal array?
I mean, how can I solve the problem?

The 1,000,000 presumably stems from the fact that 1,000,000 bytes is roughly 1 MB (actually, 1 "MiB" is 1024*1024=1,048,576 bytes).

That's the ticket, i kept wanting to say bits.

1) 2000 elements * 2000 elements = 4000000 elements. Each element is 4 bytes (size of a pointer on a 32-bit OS/compiler is 4 bytes), so that's 16000000 bytes. There are roughtly 1000000 bytes in a Mb, so that's 16Mb (Actually, as others have said, there's 1048576 bytes in a Mb, so the array is 15.26Mb)
2) That's just the way it works. If it's not allocated with new[] or new, then it goes on the stack
3) Yes, but you *really* shouldn't need to. It's a compiler option. For VC 2003, it's in project settings -> Linker -> System -> Stack Reserve Size, and set it to whatever you like.
The default is 1Mb in MSVC, I don't know about other compilers.
