OK, regarding people wanting CUP, it is probably on the way.
I will download CUP and have a look at it if I can change it.
I recently uninstalled CUP because I switched to vanilla and wanted to save space but here I go back.
A few weeks ago I tried this on Takistan and sadly it does not work on Takistan.
Today, I tried it on Diyala and it worked.
I tried it on Utes but not Chernarus too, and it also worked.
So stay tuned guys, Diyala Iraq version and CUP East European maps will be coming.
Gonna make those British Iraq campaigns look good again!
Edit:
I also don't think Takistan currently requires custom lighting.
You can make Takistan look really good by decreasing brightness and saturation, it gives Takistan the A2 feel.
Edit-2:
Takistan already has custom lighting, by the way.
For example you ever see those hard shadows on houses and vehicles?
That's custom.
