I believe so, yeah. I don't remember reading anything about water provinces having been changed in E3... don't quote me on it though, I'm not 100% sure....
This little gadget by kodak could help to:
http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?755222-DH-Capable-Data-Editor
I have copied all tech trees and techs setup from original DH full files so it may be DH full related problem.
I added few hundred sea-zones, mostly in IDs range 7456-7891.
By any chance will there be an update to clean up The Ottoman Empire's borders a little bit?
PS: Here's a map I found of The Ottoman Empire in 1914, that may be of help.

Probably the edges around the Arabian peninsula need the most attention.
Also is it possible to split Jerusalem into two provinces?
Because of the original deal to have it under U.N. control.

Maybe something like these.
In these two maps you can notice that the borders for the Arabian peninsula are much more narrow,
and at the top much more rounded.

Also I was thinking you could add in Jerusalem as it's own province seen here in the original United Nations plan.

However you could also cut it into two cities to represent the fact that it was split into two for a time.

Lastly, maybe you could change up Iraq a bit to represent the three states solution idea?

The actual Ottoman border based on map like this. Small changes would mean to change the current map of Syria. Or find small cities in the desert for province names for small desert provinces.
I fiound the map here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vilayet
But the source is: Turkey in Asia (Asia Minor) and Transcaucasia. Keith Johnston's General Atlas. Oct. 1911. Engraved, Printed, and Published by W. & A.K. Johnston, Limited, Edinburgh & London
Note that borders in Syria represents also the States of the French Mandate of Syria and Lebanon: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...date_for_Syria_and_the_Lebanon_map_en.svg.png and those old Ottoman straight borders in Syrian desert are partially in conflict with borders of the State of Aleppo, State of Damascus and Jabal al-Druze State. Also that modern Syrian area outside Ottoman rule on the Syrian Desert was uninhabited and it looks like most of maps from before creation of the French Mandate show different borderlines so I suppose that area was just unspecified back then. At least in Transjordan and Mesopotamia areas Ottoman-Arabian borders were clearer.

Is it possible to get a blank map of the E3 mod en lieu of other similar images? I imagine it's been already made, I just can't find it.
I see.
I did not realize how uninhabited those areas where at the time.
What border setup do you suggest I go for in the current version?
PS: So what about Jerusalem and Iraq suggestions?

Syria:
I would keep borders in Syria unchanged as redrawing them to fit some unspecified borders of Ottoman Empire would much more complicate the sitation and would need to add few provinces in uninhabited areas. For the same reason I used only an old Jordan-Saudi Arabian border, before territory exchange between those countries ( http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...iers-en.svg/500px-Jordan_frontiers-en.svg.png ) and some neutral areas between (Iraq-Saudi Arabia, Saudi Arabia-Kuwait).
Jerusalem:
It was planned, I just need to find place for West Jerusalem nameplate and Arabic names for East Jerusalem and West Jerusalem. I know only that Jerusalem itself is al-Quds, but how should 'East' and 'West' correctly be named?
Iraq:
I'll see what can be done here.
hello good! first, say that you are carrying out a splendid map! and I encourage you to continue with the hard work!
and the second thing I wanted to mention, if you could be revising a province?
in northern Spain, more specifically bilbao province should be divided into two ie bilbao and san sebastian.
if you could take a look I would appreciate it! a greeting!

+1 to Jerusalem idea. In the old dh full map for turning point I had modified it to contain both jerusalems and used the same maps showed here (and divided berlin), E3 is much better though, and already has Berlin divided, I'd say divided Jerusalem would be a nice addition.
