Nope, sadly I see now that I didn't make it a full ME BG mod at that time, so you will then have to do that as you described it,
BUT take a SCS original europe.mbd and rename it to uae.mbd and use it together with the DDS you will get from me.
you will also need to "borrow" SCS's original .mat and .tobj files for the ME BG and rename them and edit the .tobj to
refer to the DDS properly! If you want I can make it as a ready mod for you, but it will take a couple of hours, busy with
other things too! Okay!

I’m sorry, I don’t quite follow which of the two options I will have to choose. Should I measure out the exact position of Abu Dhabi and copy that map sector which is created or start on an empty map?

And, really, thanks for all this help—I am really grateful for you taking all this time!

@mcelcreeper

Let me suggest this instead! If you can waith a couple of days, 2 - 3, then I will make you a brand new
full ME BG mod of UAE area, ready to drop into your editor mod folder for the UAE map! Is that OK for
you? That would be the best solution!

Certainly! I'm quite busy myself and this is more of a hobby for me, and having a background map ready to go would be amazing!

Thank you so much for all your work and I look forward to seeing your awsome result!
