Is this legal for Austria?

its not working, pls update

Boyz, there is no f*** reason to update this mod. It will always works as long as Germany has its original map - path.

i like the vanlia version of the flag and putting the nazi symbol in it makes it nice and not to radical.can you please get off your ass and update it, please and thank you, because no one else has created this type of flag-mod.

UPDATE
PLEASE ITS AWESOME

Can it work with 1.4.1?

You don't like nationalism?

nice! finally I can gas them Jews historically accurately!

@Mr.Mavri Read the description.

"Adds the German "WAR" Flag. Not the political flag!"

Thats the flag of the Wehrmacht, not the country

Launched the game and it says that it doesn't work with the current version..

Thanks! I was using the political flag until now but I suppose that it makes more sense to use the war flag since this is a game of war.

Nazism was the saviour of humanity!
Soon the Jew New World Order will arise!

Nationalism has not killed anyone

@dick fascism isn't evil either

@ii natsoc isn't left retard

Nationalism is not the same as facism.

"facism or Nationalism!"
Jesus Christ open up a history book. It's called National Socialism. It is not the same as nationalism. Nationalism is not evil.

Nazism is the extreme right. Don't call bs about politics if you have no knowledge of them.

Eh, Nazism can't really be called left or right wing extremism, it's like right on the center of them both with extreme authoritarianism.

lmao wtf is this "Left Wing extremism aka Nazism"

was that a joke?

should also add you don't support Left Wing extremism aka Nazism

It's pretty easy to update that yourself: 1.Extract the .zip File of the Mod (historical_german_war_flag.zip) inside "C:\Users\{YOUR USERNAME}\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Hearts of Iron IV\workshop\content\394360\698741406 (don't know if the numbers are the same for everbody tough)" 2. open the "descriptor.mod" file with notepad++ or something similar 3. change the line "supported_version="1.0.0" to "supported_version="1.0.*" 4. repack it again as historical_german_war_flag.zip = Done! You will need like one minute for it.

"This mod is for political and historic correctness! I don't endorse, support, honor or ACTIVLEY support a political party with facism or Nationalism!"... activley...

My best guess to do is: Just include it in the mod description and make smth so ppl read it.
Smth in the titel that says "READ DESCRIPTON / IMPORTANT" could be helpful. And in the description you explain that the mod works in updated versions of the game aswell even though it says that its outdated, because the required version is still 1.0.0 instead of 1.0.1 or 1.0.*

Nope you dont ;). I totally could upload a "new" mod with the exact same stuff but it would be 1.0.1 mode. But getting everyone to update to this one is kinda.... You know what i mean. Thanks for your words though ^^

Even though I know that the mod works anyway, the warning in the launcher kinda bothers my "OCD".
I am not saying you owe us to fix this, quite the opposite, I am grateful that you took the time and created this mod without any personal gain. So even if you just turned around and never bothered to check with this mod again, I would still remain grateful. It is just that while I admit to being clueless when it comes to workshop updates I know that it must be possible because one of the other flag mods updated to the patch. And if I am not mistaken you somehow did it before when you changed the flag to the newer one. Again, I hope I don't sound ungrateful, because I am not.

I doubt that the developer will ever change the way flag mods work. Its literally a simple texture edit, so I guess you are fine. But people might think that the mod wont work because of the message appearing in the launcher

Thanks for the help but all trying did not succeed. But as it stand now it should be compatible with all upcoming updates if they don't change anything major. Will still try to update the file

To update: 1 Make sure your not subscribed to your own mod.
2. It's the exact same way you uploaded the mod the first time but you press FETCH INFO first. Keep all the information and names the same.

Well I know that you can update Steam Workshop items.
Other mods like
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=699302152
Do it aswell without creating a new mod. But I also know for a fact that working with the Steam Workshop aswell as working with collections can be a real pain in the balls.

Hopefully you will figure a way out how to fix it just in case if the developer would change the way how flag mods work >_>

yeah i know but it seemsi cant update without creating a new mod

Setting the required version higher or to 1.0.* would fix it I think

Still works as intended no update needed atm

Hey OP will u pls bring an update for the latest patch? It´s not working for me after the patch 1.0.1. thx for your help and work!!

Well the thing is, swastikas aren't included in the original version of the game either.
But things like the picture of Adolf Hitler made completly dark and unrecognizable? Eh......

I disagree with censorship in basically every way possible so when I saw that the german version actually had censorship I had no other choice but to buy it elsewhere so I wouldn't have that issue. It just feels wrong.

I still like the war flag more than the political flag, even in vanilla as it looks not as simple as the political flag, which I find nice. Anyways, enough of that.


Even though, I am still curious how some mods change and adjust over 180 flags of the 300 smth flags ingame just for the historical accuracy which should have been delivered by the publisher himself. I don't get it.

Dont feel bad :P Here it is law and it ok the way it is. No publisher wants to take this case to court. He would be the publisher who fights for the swastiska. But luckily there are ways around it and we have mod support :)

Nice flag, but for absolute historical accuracy, the national flag is prefered.

Btw, feel bad for you that you have the unnessecarry censorship version of the game

I'm Jewish and I endorse this mod for historical correctness.

this isnt the flag reich, this one was used by the Kriegsmarine only

So as it begins. Every stuff that is writen here which encourages Nazis, Nationalism and Racist and or has to do with paroles will be deleted immediatly! So dont even try.

A shame paradox had its balls removed and is too afraid to have historical accuracy in their games

Thanks for the historical accuracy. Can you imagine WW II movies with the German flags and armbands all doctored? Yeah, me neither.

Swastikas are in Wolfenstein games and they are in steam, it won't be deleted as it's just a game without nazi propaganda. Unless Paradox does something of course. Thx for the pics :)

@JS23 Historical accuracy is neither offencive nor is it rascist. It only appears so in the simpler more uneducated folk.

while I am a man who wants a historicly accurate german flag for this game this might be taken down because "its offensive and raciest" much like the white humans and European names only for stellaris

Done :D

Sorry if i annoy you but can you please share an ingame pic? I would love to see how it looks before subscribing?

Its the flag of faschism and very very bad stuff. But this flag is history! And it should be treated as such. As long as we have in mind what happend under this flag and are aware of this, i am totally fine with it. Its History that should never happen again. Period

Pretty cool flag, if you ignore what it represents
