map alignment

[sg20/hunter]

can any1 advise on a fix for this using promod and promods me and the great steep can not see top of findland and uk is im germany or somthing

This can have various reasons.

1. Have you followed Step 1 of the instructions in which you need to create the ProMods definition file? It is important, the map coordinates are stored in there.

2. If yes, have you put it in your mod folder and activated it?

3. If yes, do you use a GPS mod? This changes the file containing the map coordinates, so deactivate it.

Note: There may be people answering to subscribe to map fixes from Workshop - these are only necessary if you extend ProMods with other 3rd party maps.

dont know what you mean by the coords being stored there ive never had this issue with promods b4.

Your not the only one with that problem, half my cities are in the sea, tried everything to correct it, even changing the def file to no avail.

Go to https://www.gmc-logistics.co.uk/ or look at their tutorial videos on their youtube site. that should sort you out. They are very good at combos.

The promods-def-(st-)v265.scs contains the file def\map_data.sii. This has the coordinates for the panning boundaries as well as the centre of the world map to align with the roads.

It works out of the box, you can test this by creating a new profile, only adding ProMods Europe (def, map, assets, models1, models2, models3, media). The map is aligned.

Now as the map_data.sii also contains the colours for roads the map/GPS uses, it can be affected by GPS mods if they're not made for ProMods. I've made my own GPS mod by merging the data into a new map_data.sii which I put on top of the mod list.

So basically if you only use the default ProMods map, you do not need extra worldmap downloads (they would surely distribute them with the archive if that was the case, and there's a PM worldmap included anyway (rescaling the UK and adding Iceland and Svalbard)).

For combining PM with other maps, only then you need new worldmap backgrounds.
