Google Maps Style GPS (Dark Mode)

About this mod

This mod restyles the truck's GPS screen so it looks like a modern phone sat-nav in night mode. The background turns a calm blue-charcoal, your route is drawn in blue, roads are a readable grey and countryside is a muted green. It also brings 21 new map icons, a clearer destination flag and smaller, partly see-through F5 and rest panels.

It's a stand-alone theme for 1.61, so you don't need the author's light version. The full world map keeps the game's own colours. It's one of the most popular new mods on the Workshop this week, with over 7,000 subscribers in its first week. It isn't made by or linked to Google.

Features

• Dark blue-charcoal GPS theme with a blue route line
• 21 redrawn map icons and a clearer destination flag
• Compact F5 and rest/pause panels at 40% transparency
• Photo and viewpoint markers show whether you've found them

Notes for this mod

• Use only one GPS theme. Turn off the author's Light version and any other GPS mod.
• The theme is always dark; it doesn't switch with day and night.
• Trucks with custom GPS screens, replacement HUDs and zoom mods may need a patch. Mods that replace def/map_data.sii need a merged file to work alongside it.
