Misalignment in World Map

[coolradium]

I have ETS2 with Promods 1.91, Rusmap 1.4.8, and EAA 2.6, installed. However, after installing EAA 2.6, the roads are moved out of place in World Map. ie: the UK is in the ocean. My question is: is there any instruction manuel available that I can use to edit the World Map to realign the roads to their proper place? I know that its the EAA 2.6 mod that changed everything. I just don't know how to edit that file. It seems to be locked. I need access to EAA 2.6 "game_data.sii" file to make the changes. Any idea's on how to access it? I would greatly appreciate it.

Not being a hater, but why don't you run EAA by itself? ProMods and RusMap are at least map mods for the same continent and have played well together in the past, however, adding Brazil in with those two others may just be too much? Besides, you won't be taking any loads from Rio all the way to Moscow unless you're turning this into a shipping game as well! ;)

I think he meant the roads of UK were in the ocean.

I just like the idea of driving all over the place. If I could add TSM and MHA map to the others I would. I just love a BIG map. Any clues on how to realign the map?

Right on, I like driving, too.

Up to now I didn't know EAA was out there, so I will look into getting that one! I run separate profiles for each of them so i still get to drive around, just not ALL at once.

No idea about the map alignment issue...

The map's misalignment is from a file called game_data.sii. Each map have this file because it contains the countries coordinates & the map zoom, for the vanilla map and the map they add, ex: ETS2-ProMods or ETS2-RusMap.

If you want to use two maps, you end with two set of coordinates and zoom and that doesn't work, (ETS2-ProMods)+(ETS2-RusMap) is not the same than ETS2-ProMods-RusMap.

You need then a compatibility mod, loaded last, that will override the game_data files from each map and they're often called " ZoomMap-Mod1-Mod2 ", like zoom_map_ProMods1.9+RusMap1.4.8.scs

Or you could open the mods, find these files and try to merge them into one.

Ok. I need to edit the EAA 2.6 "game_data.sii" file, however I cannot open the file for some unknow reason. I am able to open "Promod's" and "RusMap" file to access the game data file, but I cannot do the same for EAA scs file. I was wondering if you have any clues as to how to gain access. If someone can help me figure that part out, I'll do the alignment myself. Nevertheless, I'm able to play all Promods, Rusmap, and EAA file together with no problems in game. I just find the World Map misalignment annoying and I have an itch to fix it. That's all. If you can help, that would be GREAT!
