Hi François,
so you did: * Unzip the file in a directory and rename it with a nice name. Keep the *.img extension. * Register the path with the *img file (fichier->Configurer les repertoirs des cartes) * Now the file is listed in the map list. You can activate the map with a right click selecting "Activer". This a will take some time and you will see a progress bar. * Make sure your viewport is somewhere on the map.
