The DMG files uses macos/background.tiff as the background, which is created from macos/background.png and macos/background@2x.png with the following command:

tiffutil -cathidpicheck macos/background.png macos/background@2x.png -out macos/background.tiff

macos/background@2x.png should be double the size of macos/background.png with 144 PPI. You can set the PPI by running:

sips -s dpiWidth 144 -s dpiHeight 144 macos/background@2x.png

sips and tiffutil are available by default on macOS.
