I might not be able to complete this. It's just too hard trying to figure out borders.

Maybe just add place names to key sites on the map.

I am currently adding country names and borders to the game map. I am trying as best as possible to get the borders correct, but it's not easy. Here are a few screen shots of what I have done so far:

very nice!!
but don´t Kevin see it...........he will get a shock if he sees England written over his beloved Wales!
and Terminus will also be shocked, because Denmark seems to have lost some Islands to Sweden......

Here is another progress shot. I'm about halfway finished now. Slow going, for sure. I am trying my very best to get the borders as close as possible based on town names.

Hey Swift, maybe I should move 'England' to the right a bit. [:D]

Good work!

Sweden should be the country with no radar, Denmark had the radars as it was occupied.
The border between Germany and Denmark should be more horizontal than diagonal. Keep the border a little above Flensburg though.

Hitler rearranged your borders, sorry. [;)] But seriously, these borders are not exact due to where some of the map markers are located. But I'm doing the best I can. I am checking to make sure the the map markers are located inside the correct borders. Obviously these borders are not exact. Do not use them for real-life navigation. [:D]

Last night I checked the Hungarian borders by the place names in the BTR. You're right the borders can't be done correctly 'cause the map isn't correct.
This is an addictive great game but not perfect. In the real life - what is perfect....?
Thanks for your work and I'll try your mod in the evening.

Correct. The game map wasn't totally accurate in the first place. That what was so frustrating for me when making this mod. I had to research and cross-reference town and location names to make sure they were within the correct country borders. The game map and markers represent more of an abstract approximation rather than an accurate topographical map. But I can live with that.

I hope you enjoy the mod. [:)]

In the next version release I will probably add city names, such as Paris, Berlin, etc.
