plz? I miss this wonderful map
The provinces vomited unconnected over the Sahara and central Arabia ruin this map for me.
Well damn. This looked interesting, but the download link is dead, and has apparently been dead for quite a long time. Shame.
Downloaded it just now, map seems fine aside from almost all of India being one huge piece of land. If you play as king, it takes you to the bottom left corner of the map. Don't know what I could've done wrong if it's my fault, having the most recent HIP.
I had some spare time and decided to add in as many provinces as I could (I'll explain what I mean by this shortly) that were missing from the mod due to it being outdated and all. This includes all of the Indian provinces, some provinces in Iraq, Persia and Thrace, and a couple of sea tiles and rivers that were missing/not present.
Now then, I would like to apologise in advance if any provinces on the map appear to have incorrect unit/building placements as for some unknown reason I could not get the nudge button to appear despite enabling it in settings.txt.
As for my explanation for my first sentence, what I mean by this is that some rivers/lakes have not been added due to the original mod developer not including them on the relevant map files and I would rather leave them out than attempt to draw random lines to where I think they would be on the map. I do not think that the exclusion of these lakes and rivers will dramatically alter gameplay but I could be wrong (file of missing provinces will be attached).
Anyway, the files are at the bottom and will include the provinces file, an extra copy of the .txt file of what provinces are missing, and a backup folder of the unedited map inside the zip archive just unzip it to the Gaea mod folder.

Thanks @Whizzer and @CyberNetix, +1 reason for me to play this masterpiece again that is CK2 + HIP + Gaea.

Haha, enjoy guys. Sorry. I formatted a while ago and think I lost it. But it looks like someone else had it.
If I remember correctly, it was still missing all the locations for the custom build wonders in all the provinces. That's why I stopped updating, just didn't have time to update all that.

I have finally managed to get the nudge button to appear and I decided to have a quick look at the provinces.
The great wonder locations are indeed missing, I will probably have enough time in the coming weeks to add them and send the updated positions.txt file here.
In the meantime, I should probably make a list of where to start on the map.
Africa:
Sub-Saharan Africa
East Africa
Saharan Oases
North Africa
West & South Asia:
Arabia
The Levant
Mesopotamia
Persia
India
Caucasus
Anatolia
Southern Europe:
Eastern Balkans
Western Balkans
Italy
Iberia
Western Europe:
Gaul
Britain
Ireland
Iceland
Alpine Region
Netherlands
Germany
Northern Europe:
Norway
Denmark
Sweden
Finland
Eastern Europe:
Poland
Bohemia
Hungary
Romania
Russia
Baltics
Rest of Asia:
Central Asia
Tibet
Tarim Basin
Mongolia

I have added in every eligible provinces' great work locations & trade post locations, while I was doing so I also stumbled upon a province mistake that I had done and as such have corrected this and have included it in the zip archive below.
If I, by any chance have missed a province's great work location or trade post location then let me know.

So is this map playable with HIP now, or are these corrections still in need of implementation? Because I really like the look of this map projection compared to vanilla or even regular HIP.
It is playable, just download the zip file that Whizzer has uploaded and then download my most recent zip file and send the contents to the Gaea folder.

Thanks for your work! Since I'm recently back after a long break, do you know if we have a flat map for Gaea?
Cheers!

Hello, thank you so much to everyone who worked on updating this mod.
I know the last comments on this forum are quite old, but would someone be willing to create a mod file that brings back the vanilla map's wooden frame/border along the edges? That, or explain to me how I would go about creating it myself? Thanks.
It's just rather bothersome when I'm playing at the edge of the map and staring straight into the void!
