I am referring to TMS, stored in a directory structure (/z/y/x) on a simple web server, not WMTS where a capabilities response is available. Tile sets are sometimes generated for specific projections for use in web maps that are presented in that projection, such as a national CRS. I assume this is why Openlayers allows map views to be defined in any projection and tile layers included in that same projection to minimize the need for reprojection on the fly. I am not sure I can disclose the URL of the tile set I am considering, but the url looks just like a regular XYZ url designed for web mercator, it is just the X, Y and Z values that are very different in the given projection. So the basic question is: Can I use such tile sets in QGIS just as I would be able to use them in Openlayers?
