That goes for all mods btw, unless there was something changed in the update that conflicts with the mod.

RyukoT72 11 Apr, 2019 @ 5:05pm 
is this mod coming back :D

I seriously love that you are giving me these pointers though, I appreciate it a ton and it makes me glad that you enjoy the mod :)

@crixus, yeah I will def consider that consider that, mind you that this is still pre-mtg technically - I havent been able to look around and pick out exactly what needs to be changed yet with college and all.

one suggestion for mexico is that they do not change flags whenever they switch ideology with the focuses "Party of the Revolution"(communist) or "Institutional Revolution"(democracy) specificly, since historically these focuses represent a change in direction in the same party(which switched names like 3 times).

Okay, not gonna lie, the flags they added aren't *all* bad so I am gonna allow this to slide for a bit because I have a lot of life stuff going on, particularly regarding college work. If anyone has specific flags they'd like me to fix to help me weed through all the new flags they added, I would appreciate it a TON. As it is right now, I will see about maybe tweaking a couple flags, but won't do an entire overhaul probably until May. *looking at you Wales flag :/* (I also haven't even taken a look at all the different ideology flags they have, so its probably gonna get scary XD, but I will certainly get a full update around late May after my semester is over)

Honestly, I don't even wanna think about the CSA XD - I would use the best available one (so not the battle flag) :P
Chris 11 Mar, 2019 @ 3:27am 
Awesome man! I do have a question regarding your coming update; which flag would you fly for the Confederate States then?
s y n t h a x  [author] 8 Mar, 2019 @ 7:02pm 
You should still be able to use it fine, I intend on also updating flags for the countries that have been added - thanks
Chris 5 Mar, 2019 @ 4:44pm 
Is there coming an update to MtG? maybe in patch 1.6.1 or 1.6.2?

The Egyptian Islamic Labour Party Flag was founded in the 70s and the current Egyptian fascist flag is designed to be representative how how PDX set up Egypt the game. Egypt is currently called Imperial Khemet, implying that the form of nationalism that is being embraced here is a pharaonic nationalism as opposed to anything islamic or even arab and I felt that the flag should representt that as much as possible. Now I am not agreeing with how paradox has a lot of countries set up, espeically Egypt because of how much I love Egypt, however this flag mod is intended to make the flags as historically accurate as possible within the bounds of the vanilla game PDX delivered to us. Thank you for your comment though and I am glad you are enjoying the mod.

Hello can you change the Egyptian fascist flag to the Egyptian Islamic Labour Party flag. The party is a successor of the fascist Young Egypt Party which was founded in 1933. If you go on wikapedia it is a symbol but can you make it into a flag?
Mapno 20 Jul, 2018 @ 1:24pm 
Thankyou very much. And yea i only intend to use a few such as Germanys and Japans for example. Again thankyou very much.
s y n t h a x  [author] 20 Jul, 2018 @ 10:42am 
Mind you this mod's flags are built for the second world war era and PDX's localization. So they won't all be correct for the time of your mod. @Mapno
s y n t h a x  [author] 20 Jul, 2018 @ 10:41am 
Sure go ahead, use this in your mod with proper credit and such.
Mapno 20 Jul, 2018 @ 3:58am 
A cold war mod in which its NATO vs germany instead of the soviet union. basically ww2 was fought between the allies and the ussr. Its completely unrealistic but i thought itd be fun for my first time modding and all my other ideas had been made into other very succesful mods. Ive already created the map layout and a couple of the new countries but i really like the dulled down design of your flags as opposed to the high contrast of the vanilla ones.
s y n t h a x  [author] 19 Jul, 2018 @ 9:13pm 
What mod are you working on? @Mapno
Mapno 19 Jul, 2018 @ 2:06am 
Hi, would it be possible to use your mod in a mod im making please? with proper credit ofc. thanks
tanukinoshin 16 Jul, 2018 @ 3:27am 
@Sire, thanks for considering my suggestions. Of course I hoped both get accepted, but I can see your point, so I don't mind.
s y n t h a x  [author] 15 Jul, 2018 @ 10:39pm 
@KRTEK, I have decided - based upon the localization that neutral Czechslovakia will get the Bohemian flag as it should be. I have also decided to keep the fascist Czech flag the Bohemian flag because it is called the "Bohemian Empire."
tanukinoshin 15 Jul, 2018 @ 3:22pm 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protectorate_of_Bohemia_and_Moravia
So that's what the germans made with the rest of czechoslovakia and the flag would make sense, because you can also play as a german puppet.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_Bohemia
and here is that flag of the crown of bohemia which is currently the facist flag in your mod and would make more sense as non-aligned flag.
the non-aligned flag in vanilla makes sense because it also includes the slovak part of the country, but I can't find any evidence if it's the correct flag due to the fact that the country never existed as a monarchy.
s y n t h a x  [author] 15 Jul, 2018 @ 2:19pm 
Send me some info so I can take a look and I am happy you like my mod :) @KRTEK
tanukinoshin 15 Jul, 2018 @ 3:51am 
hey, i really enjoy your mod. made me try a lot of countries, but I'm not too sure about your decisions in the case of czechoslovakia. I know the facist country is called "bohemian empire" and so u use the falg of the bohemian crown, which is was a kingdom and in my opinion and so i think you should take another look at it. I would like to provide a solutionfor that, but I have no idea at the moment (sorry for that). maybe the flag of the protectorate bohemia and moravia is a start.

Alright, it should be updated
Chris 28 Apr, 2018 @ 4:23am 
could you please update? <3
s y n t h a x  [author] 27 Apr, 2018 @ 7:08pm 
Ill check it out
rio 27 Apr, 2018 @ 5:57pm 
It's quite the good mod, can you take a look at the starting flag of paraguay though, it isn't their historical flag.
s y n t h a x  [author] 17 Apr, 2018 @ 6:52pm 
@Cody712, looks like that has to do with a similar problem I am having with porting this mod over for BICE. I intend on fixing it sometime in the future, once I find the issue :)
s y n t h a x  [author] 17 Apr, 2018 @ 6:51pm 
@Kaisergarde, I have changed every flag in the game.
Gardist 17 Apr, 2018 @ 3:25pm 
Can you maybe make a list (or a picture) of all changed flags?
cody 17 Apr, 2018 @ 3:21pm 
Looks like most of your flags overwrite Road to 56. But Austria still looks like the rt56 for some reason.

https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/2425628008271156300/143889E4579E24E0B7EEB5A00FEF778A1B4B70AB/

Any way to have yours overwrite all?
s y n t h a x  [author] 16 Apr, 2018 @ 7:42pm 
@Broletariat, thank you so much - I was in the exact same boat :)
s y n t h a x  [author] 16 Apr, 2018 @ 7:41pm 
@Cody712, presumably so however, I do not use road to 56 so I do not know for certain. If they don't, let me know!
JackieCat 16 Apr, 2018 @ 6:21pm 
This mod is what I've wanted from day one. Something realistic without party symbols slapped on national flags.
cody 16 Apr, 2018 @ 3:56pm 
So your flags would replace the ones from road to 56 right? since this is higher in load order. Sorry if dumb question.
s y n t h a x  [author] 16 Apr, 2018 @ 11:59am 
@Petrus - Sometimes using the state flag and civil flags interchangably can make more sense in both distinguishing the nations and with their usage.
s y n t h a x  [author] 16 Apr, 2018 @ 11:44am 
Not really @Bacon - I go with the names and nations PDX set up (as bad as those can be) in order to make those PDX creations and interpretations as historically accurate as possible.
Bacon 16 Apr, 2018 @ 11:32am 
Will releasable nations which can be released as colonies get historical colony flags as well? Such as Rhodesia getting the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland flag (Due to it all being one amalgated territory rather than split in to N.Rhodesia, S.Rhodesia and Nyasaland) and Kenya the British Kenya Flag?
Lionel de Tipotre 16 Apr, 2018 @ 10:17am 
But for the other countries such as Peru and Austria you are using the state flag! It's not consistent.
s y n t h a x  [author] 16 Apr, 2018 @ 9:53am 
*without the crown, not flag
s y n t h a x  [author] 16 Apr, 2018 @ 9:52am 
That was the state flag, the one without the flag was the civil flag. They are both correct flags but the one without the crown is more correct and fit for use here. Links are down below when I corrected another person who mention we the same thing.
Lionel de Tipotre 16 Apr, 2018 @ 6:49am 
The italian flag is wrong, the right one has a Crown above the Logo of the House of Savoy.
s y n t h a x  [author] 15 Apr, 2018 @ 9:40am 
I'm glad you like it!
UlfDerDritte 15 Apr, 2018 @ 5:47am 
Finally, the CURRENT Flag af Austria, which looked different before the Anschluss (without the broken chains), isn't the communist flag anymore
Katatsumuri-maru 15 Apr, 2018 @ 1:50am 
Thank you for this mod. Nepal especially bugged me in vanilla
s y n t h a x  [author] 14 Apr, 2018 @ 8:24pm 
No, unfortunately I don't at the moment because I believe that would alter the checksum and disable ironman. Maybe I will make an additional mod in the future, though atm I have no plans.
