Hey Guys,

Great work on the new SAT BG Bengan universal is the way to go. :)

On another note when loading the new BG works great on
Promods combos and non-promods combos.

with one issue as I seen reported here is that EAA has the skewed line across
EAA once again which had issue on my first EAA BG I did but was running it as standalone
and had the same issue on EAA before but was not the BG, but when David2849 made the
new deleted europe mod that skewed line went away.

I am running the new SAT BG on a promods big combo all maps but no EAA no problem all looks good.

On another profile running all the same maps with exception of being non-promods no promods addons etc...
adding the new SAT BG mod to it is when I get the EAA skewed line across EAA.

seems only when adding EAA to the combo this error happens at least from my stand point.
I see a few pics been posted but I will post mine as well.

The previous SAT BG does not have this issue on either map combos.

@dOOmERdaZe

Mate, I've already described why this happen. Sadly I doubt that I can do much about it,
but I'll try to fix it. I'm a stubborn guy! Very short explanation. SCS has built into the game
engine a feature to scale the UK area, west and north of the English Channel. In this case
that includes northern part of EAA too, giving that display anomaly. To make my UNIV SAT
BG I force that feature, in spite of the fact that Promods doesn't want that re-scale, hence
the problem.

Mind you, even when Promods return to using that feature of re-scaling UK area, the problem
will persist, so actually the only correct solution would be for the EAA team to move their map
towards it's REAL location, away from that UK area. Sadly I don't think that will happen in my
lifetime. Even better would be if they transfer their map over to ATS. PERIOD!

But the best option is to have ATS and ETS2 in one game! SCS, why another game with the same engine and features? :cry: :roll: :?:

EDIT: Sorry for offtopic but it would be posibble if we had have some id replacer. If we would have that, the only thing is to move the map.

@All

FYI, this is the area that, if asked for re-scaling UK area, SCS's game engine built-in function
will do it's re-scaling of the Map View and Job View displays. Approximately, as I don't have
any specified coordinates to use.

Arayas and you did not think to combine SuperZoomPMME135 with a color background. It would be cool.

@BenganJ

Using at the moment with a small map combo inc. Promods 2.42, Rusmap, S.R., & YKSRSK and it looks fine for me.
Thank you Bengan :D :D :D :D :D

@JohnH

Thank you mate. As you might have seen, there's a problem with Map View display if you use
EAA in any combo. The northern part of EAA gets a scaling it shouldn't get! :(
