Hello! Could you send me the ETS2 Satelite Map as a map editor's background?

He wants to use your sattelite background map as an BG map in the editor as I understand.

@paokkerkir

Let him speak out for himself mate! :D It is IMPOSSIBLE to use that satellite BG
as ME BG, too big and is not adapted to be used there at all. But I can produce
ME BGs which are satellite based, but then also with roads and cities in them.

Hello! I have this problem where the cities are a bit off the satellite map. It is most visible on islands, where the "circles" are in the ocean.
Is this mod related? Can it be adjusted? If yes, how can I do it?
Thank you very much!

@axellslade

Welcome my friend! May I ask if you mean as examples, the Swedish islands and Cyprus or
is it some other ones? Can you show a screenshot? I can say that in almost all cases it is
due to bad mapping. Both I myself and Promods have done some such things!

Yes, I meant that. I need only Iceland and Greenland part of ETS2 satelite map, without roads and cities

@Xoryx

Okay, interesting! What is stopping you from cutting that area out from the SAT BG for ETS2?
BTW, is it going to be an addon map or a standalone? If standalone you can just cut it out, no
problem. But if you are going for an addon I will tell you that you will have a hard time with
registering the islands at their proper location, as in order to make my SAT BG UNIVERSAL I
had to move Iceland to adjust for the mess Promods has done to the UK area, which includes
Iceland too. And why don't you want the roads and cities when using it in Map Editor, that
beats me?!
