Comprehensive Flag Patch Pack

Description
This pack adds flag patches for all countries to GROUND BRANCH. It also includes state flags for Australia, Canada, Germany, Spain, and the USA.


Contents
- All countries
- States flags for Australia, Canada, Germany, Spain, and the USA.
- Multi-national organizations (in alphabetical order): CSTO, EU, NATO, UN.
- Redacted patches (black patch, white patch).

Technical notes
The patches are automatically generated by a script using ImageMagick[www.imagemagick.org].
The script is available on GitHub: https://github.com/Bob-AT/region-patches

Q&A
Q: Is this mod political?
A: No.

Q: Is this mod apolitical?
A: Yes.

Q: The flag of country X offends me, what should I do?
A: You can simply hide specific patches in-game in the "Customize Patches" menu.
Alternatively, you can replace the flag with a copy of "(Bob-AT)Redacted_A.png".

Q: The flag of country X appears to be stretched/deformed?
A: Patches for GROUND BRANCH need to be exactly 512x256. The aspect ratio is 2:1.
For some flags, this does not work well. Please provide an aspect-ratio correction transformation via
ticket[github.com] on GitHub or create a topic in Steam's discussion tab.

See README on GitHub for how such transformations work. Alternatively, you can provide a 512x256 PNG file in the ticket.

Q: How do I make my own patches?
A: See Custom patch creation guide.

Q: Can I use the scripts to generate other patches?
A: Yes, of course.

Q: I have another issue.
A: Create a ticket[github.com] on GitHub or create a topic in Steam's discussion tab.

Nice! Though I think this is the only mod that still worked when v1035 initially dropped.

Thanks for this. Happy to see that everyone can select their own national flags.

Please make a Patch Series for Special Forces like the GSG-9 or GIGN too!
