Dawn of Dominions map error

The new version of the Dawn of Dominions map contains at least one error. In the east you can see that a section of the map is slightly askew. This is nothing big of course, but I wonder why a new and inferior version of the map was shipped with the patch?
Maybe it is possible to just switch it for the old one?

Upon closer investigation of the map I found more distortion. The whole north border is also askew.

I dare to repeat myself: The maps weren't touched from 3.08 -> 3.10

Wait, let me guess, you're on a Mac aswell?

Nope, Linux. And it seems like this is happening in-game for some reason. The map viewed from outside is fine.

Ok I restarted the game a couple of times and it disappeared. Weird.

Starting the game client more than once while one instance is already running has always resulted in very colorful graphic glitches for me, if that is maybe related.

We had no intention of altering the Dawn of Dominions map. If there has been any changes to graphics or .map content it is probably due to tha fact that older unfinished versions of the map might be floating around on my computer. If an inferior version comes with the map I would like to know, so we can inform people, and post the working one in case someone lost the correct one.
