Hi Tracers!

Meanwhile, I found a solution on my own... as each original bitmap tile goes all
around the cylinder regardless of its radius, I just copied the original tile
element until I got a row of 10 x 1 elements. Then I assigned the image_map as
before and modified its y size according to its x size to get the proper ratio
(with a cylinder radius of 2, the x size is 2 * 2 * pi = 12.566371, so for a
bitmap with a side ratio of 10 : 1, y has to be 1.2566371)!

See you in Khyberspace!
