Okay, but SCS has built into the game engine a rescale of the UK area and the Promods team has mapped outside
the area chosen by SCS to rescale. It's ONLY a display anomaly, it doesn't have ANY impact on the driving in game
there! If you can't accept that anomaly, you will have to stick to Promods OWN BG!

Sadly NO, as I don't belong to Promods team and I don't work for SCS. My BGs
are created in the way SCS has specified things!

@PikPikker

Now enjoy your combo again. But I will move these posts to another more proper
place in the Help! Troubleshooting part of the forum, as it had nothing to do with
the Worls Background Maps .

Yes, I'm aware of that, the Job view is zoomed out too much. For my Ultimate BGs
I have made a Zoom Fix mod, but I can't do that for the Promods special one, so if
you want to fix this, at least temporary change to one of the Ultimate BGs and the
Zoom Fix mod. You can then revert back if you like. Hopefully I will update all the
BGs with better zoom.

EDIT: The Zoom Fix mod you can get from the following post: viewtopic.php?p=34052#p34052

The Ultimate BGs will work with ANY combo, BUT if you use Promods as base map in the combo
there will be anomalies, due to Promods still wanting to display in World Map view in scale 1:15,
while other base maps, like SCS Vanilla is displayed in 1:19. That makes Iceland misplaced in the
Promods combo, BUT that is ONLY in the display. When driving on the map all is OK!

Thanks for your great background map.
However, there are places where the road and the map are out of alignment.
Only the UK, Ireland and Iceland are off the map, is it possible to fix this?

I also use almost all of the Map Mods here.

Of course, there are also mods made by you.

@Mysia_Elaea729

Welcome! I need you to post your game log to be able to answer you. The World Map
view should not look like that! I think you might have the wrong background mod.
