@Aes Thanks!
Aes  [author] 17 Apr @ 1:21am 
@Кацураги, I use Paint.NET with Fant compression method and gamma correction enabled. I did many tests and those settings gave the best results.

I have since deleted the save, so it isn't a big deal for me now (can't speak for others) but something to note in case of future name changes.
Aes  [author] 26 Jan @ 3:59am 
@djvandebrake aaah, okay. I'll see if I can change the name on Steam without changing the internal name. But can you load the game and play anyway?
djvandebrake 21 Jan @ 7:11am 
No, the mod does work fine but when you changed the name it reads it as different in the save file. So it is like it is detecting a new mod and the old mod is removed, even though it is really the same mod. Presumably if you had a save file unpacker, you could alter the name in the save file and make it work, but I'm not familiar with such.
Aes  [author] 19 Jan @ 9:11am 
@djvandebrake, I tested the mod and everything works fine. Your issue may be caused by another thing.
Aes  [author] 19 Jan @ 8:59am

Last update seems to have broken saves; when I try loading the game it gives an error that the mod is not present, despite confirming it is in my load order and on the disk. Did a critical file get renamed?

@someswaggyguy, it makes more sense, so it will be changed with the next update. I don't like it too much though, because the game still calls non-aligned Zimbabwe "Zimbabwe", not "Rhodesia", but country name mods exist anyway.
someswaggyguy 28 Oct, 2024 @ 10:30pm 
Non-aligned Zimbabwe should be the flag of Rhodesia (1964-1968) instead of just being Zimbabwe-Rhodesia considering Rhodesia was a monarchy from 1965 to 1970

@Theta-6 it's not explicitly compatible, but all content that the mod takes unchanged from vanilla should work. Any flags belonging to countries, governments and cosmetic tags that don't exist in vanilla won't be changed by this mod and will remain as they are on Road to 56.
Theta-6 25 May, 2024 @ 2:55am 
Cool! Also, Is this Mod Compatible with Road to 56?
Aes  [author] 22 Mar, 2024 @ 7:27am 
@Theta-6 No, because a royal standard is not a national flag. Even if the UK became an authoritarian monarchy, its flag would still be the Union Jack.
Aes  [author] 22 Mar, 2024 @ 7:25am 
@donald.grape yes! I just released the update. Enjoy!
Aes  [author] 22 Mar, 2024 @ 7:25am

Hope it gets updated. Best flag mod
donald.grape 18 Mar, 2024 @ 2:39pm 
One of my fav flag mods. Will you update the mod with the new nations from the ToA pack?
Theta-6 8 Mar, 2024 @ 12:15pm 
Just a Query, Is the "Neutral" Flag for the UK the same as its Non-Aligned (Monarchist) Flag? If not could we Potentially have the Royal Standard as the Monarchist Flag for the UK?
Aes  [author] 21 Jan, 2024 @ 4:24am

@Áurum oh, okay, I understand, hope the improvements are gonna come soon.
Aes  [author] 24 Apr, 2023 @ 10:53am 
@Zanhou the mod already has all the flags in the game. I have some prepared improvements that I will release when I have time, but the mod is not in need of an update as it is right now.
Zanhou 20 Apr, 2023 @ 2:55pm 
Hello, any update upcoming any time soon?
Tot 5 Feb, 2023 @ 9:31am 
Doesn't work for me. This is the 3rd flag mod i've tried to install.
Tot 5 Feb, 2023 @ 9:01am 
I've switched to the vanilla version with cosmetic mods only.
Got sick of assassinated saved games.
I just hope there isnt any saved game issues with this.
Very considerate to include a clean version. I choose the most accurate history.
