    well i would like to have the ability to pick which flags you want for each country (including historical flags, alteratives, ones people would reconize the country by, etc) i feel it could be pretty easy from some sort of launcher with a setup like this

    Russia
    • flag a
    • flag b
    • flag c
    Sweden
    • flag a
    • flag b
    • flag c
    etc. (you pick a flag for each country with those pole style selection devices)

    Sry, but why into the various images of flag there are flags of Switzerland, Meclemburg, Oldenburg and Khiva Khanate; those nations aren't in ETW

    I have a gripe regarding the republic Mughal flag...it looks like an eyesore compared to the peacock crescent monarchy Mughal flag. Since you've already added the historically accurate yellow-crescent-on-green-background new Mughal MON flag, could you swap the hideous vanilla Mughal REP flag for the vanilla Mughal peacock flag?

    I have a book about the Portuguese army during the War of the Spanish Succession and I could draw some pictures of the flags contained in it (they are black and white but the colours are described). Maybe they could be included?

    Oh and one more thing... while the Moroccan battle flag (vanilla star) is accurate, I'm not too sure about that new plain red Morocco faction flag. Historically, it looked more like this:

    ATTENTION: BUG REPORT!

    The Punjab flag has a "trail" of pixels at the far right that shouldn't be there. Can you please remove it in your next patch?


    One more question: can you somehow make this Multiplayer compatible (just like how the United Provinces retexture mod is) or is it impossible?

    ATTENTION: THIS ISN'T A BUG!
    It's not a bug, but a transparency conflict...


    And as far as I am aware, unless the other player has the same mod, it is impossible.

    The discussion over the Morocco flag was a lengthy one in this thread. Lots of stuff to do with Islam and icons etc. The battle flag is as you have suggested.

    Actually, the battle damaged Marathan and Ottoman flags look fine to me (the black bits at their edges does give a feel of them being tattered.

    It's just that the Punjab flag - even healthy (not battle bamaged) - has that vertical strip at the end, as if someone who cropped the flag from a rectangle to a right angled triangle just forgot to scroll all the way right and left a bit out.

    I have an idea:
    In NTF, you can activate the mod without having to open it with a modmanager, perhaps in the next ETF you can just place the file and open Empire through Steam rather than ModManager? Anyway, + REP for two brilliant mods.

    EDIT: Woops, sorry, it's working for me now.

    Also, in the diplomacy menu, the two Punjab flags displayed underneath the King portrait are the vanilla red/green CA ones.

    bump

    I noticed another *mistake*: the flag for the Arawakan rebels (South America) is an Islamic flag?



    If Muslim and Arawakans share the same flag (and if it thus cannot be made two seperate versions), can you please create a more generalized version that represents both Arab and Native American cultures? (for example by removing the cresents and replacing them with stars and perhaps swapping one scimitar for a spear?)

    Cheers,

    But when I rebel, my republican flag is still the same.
    This is quite wrong because the flag is a sign of absolute monarchy.

    That's why I made a kind of prototype of the Italian States republic flag:



    This is based on the warflag of the early Italian Republic in the 18th century.
    I Held the tricoulor and the laurel wreath as a sign of being a republic.
    The 'RR' (normaly) stands for 'Republica Romana', pointing at the fact that it is a republic.

    While there was no Italian revolution before Napoleon, I thought they would look to their great ancestors: the Romans, and this is what I came up with.

    For the warflag I chose the real historical warflag from the Italian Republic:



    The text reads 'Roman civil guards'.


    EDIT:

    I found a naval flag!



    I made one from the earliest naval jack I could find.


    Remember that all this flags are for the republic version!
    Loving those :O
    conquering all of italy then a revolution and get that flag .... nice
