From the beginning the images was without mipmaps and without .mat/.tobj files!
Then I added that and here you have the mod in it's present state. Please, have a
look at it and tell me what I'm doing wrong!

EDIT: And it's the only mod I have in my special test profile!

The download has to be UNZIP'ed, the SCS-file is inside!

EDIT: DARN IT, I have forgotten a folder level, haven't I?
I need a /material/ui/map folder! BAH!

Also hopefully you can do a video of your process that would be great knowledge is key mate! I want to know it all :)
reason I ask for video is because of the spliting of images and I have something in mind so a video of your process and what tools you used
would help me out alot for what I am gonna do for the background. I need all the help out and video I can get. even if you send it to me private thats ok to

Well, right now I'm doing the calibration, moving and scaling the images, so
that they register approximately correct with the map data. I'll be back! :D

Okay folks! Now I have wasted a couple of hours on trying to register
the SCS Vanilla map data against my own background images in map
view. I realize that it won't be possible to do that properly without
rotating or tilting the images, but I haven't got the time to fiddle any
more with this now! Here's a link to a mod in it's present state, that
ANYONE feeling urged to make something out of it can play with. You
can watch the video to see the present state of it all and the coverage
of the BG images.

EDIT: If someone needs it, I have a HIGH resolution, 8192x8192 DDS image
for starting from scratch! Just HOWL!
