ETS2 Global Background Map

General Information:

This background map has the largest coverage with nearly all continents fully mapped

It adds all of Africa Europe and Asia along with Australia + New Zealand and North America with a small part of northern South America, (including Colombia Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname, French Guiana and parts of Brazil)

If you have any suggestions or notice any errors, write a comment!

The remaining part of South America will not be added unless an addon map is released, since adding it would mean a reduction in image quality, if you're interested in mapping this area read below!


Notes for Map Modders:

The majority of the map is based on the Lambert Conic Conformal projection (North America, Asia and Africa above the equator, excluding the mediterranean coast, all follow it exactly) with major adjustments to Europe. Antarctica is entirely fictional

Australia is based on the same projection however it has been shrunk and moved left due to the Island of Tasmania being beyond the 32 bit integer limit that the game's coordinate system can support.

South America is based on a custom projection since LCC would make it too large to practically use.

Software used: paint.net and QGIS

During the background map's development it was originally based on the AllWorld background by Freeman however the borders and outlines of countries have been completely redone from scratch along with the map textures. Full credit to him, along with the author of the World's Combined background, Melphiz, and to DOWL for creating the Promods background

Full credit to BenganJ (rest in peace) who's knowlege of background generation/creation was used extensively for this mod
