Standing Flags

Description
Ooh, flags!
Since Libertad has changed their license to ADPL-SA, I figured I'd try and make use of one of my favourite assets of theirs - a standing flagpole, mapped for Arma flags. It's a simple thing, but it adds flair in a way that banners don't. After a real ♥♥♥♥♥ of a struggle to figure out soft dependencies, I've finally gotten it to a point where it can be released.

Note
By default, only the base game and its DLCs (Apex, Contact) will have their flags included. If you enable any of the supported mods and CDLCs, their flags will also show up. Also Revolucion's Venezuelan flag is a bit weird so I've added that one separately as a quick fix.

Features
- Base game and DLC
- Global Mobilization CDLC
- Aegis, Atlas and Revolucion
- Project Crimson
- Locke's Ace Combat Flags
- RHS AFRF, GREF and SAF

Future Plans
- CUP
- SOG Prairie Fire CDLC
- 3CB
- Others, probably
- A menu to allow flag texture change in the editor (maybe)

Credits
- Project Edaly and their team for Libertad and its assets

@NCISPhd805 Should work now. I think.

@NCISPhd805 Strange - it worked fine when I first made the mod, but now I can't get it to work no matter what I try. I think I'm gonna have to rewrite that whole config. I've a midterm in like, 8 hours, so I'm gonna need to hold off on fixing that for a little bit unfortunately.

Does it include Panama flag?

Excellent mod, could you add some banners from Deutsches Reich? Specifically the Black-White-Red tricolor?

@W.JG For the flags? You'll need a .paa texture of the flag you want. If it's a local mission, you can just put "this setObjectTexture "[0, TEXTURENAME.paa"];", without the quotations at the start and end. If you have the required flag in a different mod, you'll need to replace whatever texture with the full file path. You can get those pretty easily if the mod has banners added, since it'll be available right in the editor menu.

I intend to try and make this easier in future - I've got some code laying around, I just haven't had the time to test it.

This is going to be very handy for set dressing, appreciate the work put in to make a standalone.

I have a suspicion that I already recognize it but would you happen to recall which mod the US uniform in the fourth preview image comes from?

Cool, but what do I do with it, do I need to edit it in code?
