French Campaign Screen Flags 1805, 1812, 1815. Mod Closed

**Pdguru** · September 26, 2010, 10:42 AM

The Vanilla game uses generic national flags for the campaign map because they represent nations and to deal with the issue that nations' battle flags changed over the period. As for me, I want to see the battle flag flying over Napoleon and his generals on the CAMPAIGN map: These are armies and cities under my military control, right?

So, I have created a mod that replaces the generic French flag flown over cities and armies with the infantry battle flag from the three periods covered by the game - the 1805, 1812, and 1815 patterns. You can choose the one you prefer, or just swap out the mod files manually when it's time: It's just a matter of swapping out the three files in the data folder.

Installation

1. Download and upack the enclosed - which has 3 files therein.
2. Choose ONE of the mod files, and place it in your data folder: The 1805, 1812 and 1815 options clearly labelled.
3. If you want the flag to change with each of the three periods, just swap them out manually when your campaign gets to those years.
4. Enjoy... and...

.......If you try and use this mod, please be respectful enough to give feedback.

I was able to do this because of learning how to do it for your Russian/German mod. Finally got around to doing it because of you, so, "thanks"

Looks great. So you choose which flag you like and slip it into your data folder right?

Would any of the 82 people who have downloaded this mod like to give feedback?

Should be fine.

L'aigle - thank you.

A very nice mod, indeed. Thank you Pdguru!
Do you see any way of making the flags change automatically as the campaign proceeds?
Guess it would be too much work for a small but beautiful effect, hun?
In any case, I like it very much!
