Again a big thanks for your background map mods! I'm just checking the PM based map mod as it doesn't have the EAA shifted map problem. But with this background map mod I cannot see Java Road Revolution (JRR). Is there a way to increase the view to the east, so that JRR becomes visible?

Sorry mate, that BG has a very limited coverage and is still available ONLY
because Promods Iceland is dislocated on the Ultimate ones. And as I've said
earlier, if my plans go my way that BG will not be needed any more and will
get removed. I will NOT do anything to that BG in the future.

@Bengan,
Didn't see it yet. But I see it now

Great Work

@BenganJ thank you so much for the update! I have just got a couple of questions. First, does the update fix the misscaling issue of Norwich and Iceland? And secondly, the last time I used the BG for ProMods based combos, Google Maps GPS wasn't working properly the way it worked with other BGs. So, is this fixed, as well?

As I said in the announcement, what has been done to all seven BGs was including the feature of displaying viewpoints
and adjusting the zoom levels. Regarding dislocation of Iceland and Faroe Islands and the partially re-scaled Norwich is
something another part will have to solve, so let's wait and see.

If you read the header info for the Promods based BG you won't see that it uses the alternative scheme for map_data.sii
and therefor Sinagrit Baba's GPS mods won't work with that BG, ONLY the Ultimate versions. And as soon as the above
anomalies have been solved, that Promods BG will be removed.

@BenganJ Oh ok... So, we don't have to use the PM ME-Izmir Ferry and Viewpoint fixes anymore, right?

@orucovic

You SHOULDN'T use the Viewpoint fixes anymore, as I thought I announced that clearly.
About the PM ME-Izmir Ferry mod, it has NOTHING to do with my BGs, so answer on that
one you will have to get elsewhere.
