@clear F1

As I said earlier, do not thank me, thank Mysia_Elaea729 instead, as he pointed me to a problem I was not aware of.

I never had a problem with the original one personally, but I know some people did.

@bogdac

Right, but you always had my map at the top of the maps in your Promods combos, didn't you?
As I said, if certain map mods were at the top of all map mods, this problem could happen!

So do we still need the Zoom fix and other fixe, or is that now all included?

@MrPapaBear

For the Promods specific BG you have never used any fixes, they are for the Ultimate BGs,
and that still holds. No fixes needed before and no fixes now. This was an update for ONE
specific BG, NOT ALL!

@BenganJ

Shame about the lack of gray maps, but very happy that the UK misalignment is gone!

If you change your mind, I'd be happy to make a gray map for you.

Thank you very much!

@Mysia_Elaea729

Well, if all goes well, this BG and the non-Promods version will be removed and the full functionality
will be included in the Ultimate BG series. But more about that later. About making BG map images,
that is NOT an easy task I can assure you, as the map projection is a special one for the game, the
Lambert Conic Conformal, so one has to use special software to create them. Most of the theory
is explained by me in this topic, but spread all over.

I see. I could see that it was a difficult task. I would like to support the map production in any way I can, do you accept donations?

@Mysia_Elaea729

To be very honest here! They day I make a paid mod or accept donations, then I consider myself finished.
I do what I do because I like it and am having fun doing it for the community. So, no thank you, but thanks
anyway!
