Load Order - ETS2 v1.49 Map Combos (Updated 07 Apr 2024 - Heart of Africa - Horn of Africa - Road into Wilderness)

Just downloaded that 1.1 PM map background, I'll let you know how it goes.

In my turn I will check the other background maps from roextended.

Nice one thanks.

https://roextended.ro/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=7 EAA and Rusmap Combo fix.

@assayaro I can do.

WOW~~~ Thank you so much. I think I've seen another world.

I've tried several backgrounds, still no ferry to Greenland. I am stumped.

I did a "goto" via the dev console. I can physically see the ferry, the road is partially greyed out but no activation there.

If checked all three Ultimate Backgrounds (satelite, SCS style, thin border line), and also the ProMods based background, all of them without the ETS2_LAMB_SAT_BG_MAP_BORDERS_BLACK_PM_FIX. The ferry is clearly visible with all of the four background mods.

But what exactly do you mean with "still no ferry to Greenland" and "I can physically see the ferry". Do you see the ferry boat at Landeyjahofn in Iceland? Or do you see the ferry connection on the map, but are not able to take the ferry to Nanortalik?

P.S. I've checked the four backgrounds with only ProMods, Project Greenland and EAA, but it should work with all those backgrounds in the main Eurasia / Global map combo as well; at least it works with the thin style version as I use that version for quite some time in my Eurasia / Global map combo load order.

Hi there folks! I see you are hot discussing the ferry problem. Apart from it having
NOTHING to do with which background mod you use, 2 things.

1. This fix, ETS2_LAMB_SAT_BG_MAP_BORDERS_BLACK_PM_FIX, is NOT needed anymore.
2. Any special reason you have two EAA-RusMap fixes in the combo? Shouldn't this old one,
EAA 5.4.1 + Rusmap 2.1 fix be removed?

@Digital X

How about you posting your latest game log, so that Vinnie can analyze where the problem
is?

@BenganJ It quite confusing this ETS2_LAMB_SAT_BG_MAP_BORDERS_BLACK_PM_FIX. What I want is this:

1) Black and white background, because there are way to many icons visible on the map (gas stations, road numbers, rest areas, companies, etc, etc, etc. Therefore I don't want to use a satelite background, as that satelite background also contains a lot of different colors. I therefore want a black background.
2) I don't want this shift anomaly, because it is really annoying when I want to create a route by myself.

So that's why I combined the Thin Style background with this ETS2_LAMB_SAT_BG_MAP_BORDERS_BLACK_PM_FIX. It's not perfect, because a lot of cities are misaligned if you look at the background, but at least I don't have this shift anomaly, which I find more annoying.
Why do I not use the ProMods based background then? Well, it is also a satelite background. So I'm somehow forced to use the Thin Border background together with this ETS2_LAMB_SAT_BG_MAP_BORDERS_BLACK_PM_FIX.

The EAA 5.4.1 + Rusmap 2.1 fix was/is meant to fix the broken road just east of Jaboatao Dos Guararapes. I don't know if this is fixed with the new EAA 6.1 Rusmap 2.4.0 FIX. I will check that.

@Vinnie Terranova

But my friend, The Ultimate Thin Style BG has NOTHING to do with that fix, it was solely aimed
at the v1.0 of ETS2_LAMB_SAT_BG_MAP_BORDERS_BLACK_PM, now included in v1.1. It is NOT even
compatible with the Ultimate family of BGs. REMOVE that fix!

I'll remove all mods except maps and then post my game log after. I cannot even see Landeyjahofn. I'll record an unlisted video and post it here. Push comes to shove I'll just drop Greenland.
