Well, atleast its not our fault through a bit of error like the last tags, this seems to be a PDX issue.
Maybe a bug report, maybe not.
XanderWalrus  [author] Oct 6 @ 12:56pm 
@Zandrus Yeah if the flag changed aswell then it'll be the cosmetic tag my guess is they changed the script for setting the Canada tag to the dominion when a UK puppet but perhaps forgot to check the autonomy based one to do not it when it already has the NA tag.
Zandrus Oct 6 @ 11:14am 
I think its the full cosmetic tag, changes the flag and name back to Canada. Might be a PDX issue.

Then again I used debug mode.
XanderWalrus  [author] Oct 6 @ 10:45am 
@Zandrus I just tried this ingame had it did not occur, is it the full cosmetic tag or just the name? If the full tag that's a pdx issue.
Zandrus Oct 6 @ 8:44am 
I came to advise that when you drop the autonomy of the North American Dominion, it changes back to the original Canada tag!
Zandrus Oct 6 @ 5:42am 
Very good update btw!
Zandrus Oct 6 @ 4:23am 
I think it was because we used the long dash instead of the short -
XanderWalrus  [author] Oct 6 @ 3:49am 
@Zandrus Should be fixed I rewrote them and then was fine have no idea what could've been causing the - issue
Zandrus Oct 5 @ 2:43pm 
But yeah, the tags for Peru-Bolivia and Afghan-Pakistan are still broken, with the - appearing on the map as a "?".
Zandrus Oct 2 @ 11:24am 
The TOA faction names needed to have their own file path. Replace>Juno_l_focus if I remember correctly.

Then it overwrites the other factions other than just the Chilean Hispanic Alliance and the Brasilian Internationale Socialist Unity name.
XanderWalrus  [author] Oct 1 @ 3:29pm 
@Zandrus What was the issue with the TOA faction names? as far as I remember apart from Peru Bolivia there was nothing too much of an issue with the exception of the typical overwrite tags?
Zandrus Sep 30 @ 9:39am 
I fixed it, never mind
Zandrus Sep 30 @ 9:28am 
I have found how to fix the faction names for the Trial of Allegiance names!

However, a new issue sprang up, the new BRM_british tag, it seems to overwrite the puppet name schemes for the mod.

how to change country names
Zandrus Sep 1 @ 4:48pm 
They're hard to find and get them active in game


And the horrible PDX font that gives ? For either hyphens or normal characters.
Zandrus Sep 1 @ 4:47pm 
And another one is the horrible faction coding for the JUNO/TOA factions
...ugh!
Zandrus Sep 1 @ 12:40pm 
I saw the neo-mesopatamia tag too!

I will also advise that the PRC being proclaimed merely only shows up as "China", instead of the PRC. I fixed it in my mod and see if that is the issue.
XanderWalrus  [author] Aug 20 @ 9:20am 
@LeHarwe Sure if using the files themselves or significant/unique content please leave some sort of credit where available.
LeHarwe Aug 17 @ 4:15am 
Hi! Can I use your country names into my mod?
XanderWalrus  [author] Aug 6 @ 2:31pm 
@Zandrus Sorry it's been awhile since I last updated so forgot if I recall I think it may have been neo-mesopatamia the new tag?
Explodyman Aug 6 @ 11:36am 
oh okay, but the launcher can let you rearrange the mod order. I'll try changing it, and thank you for responding so fast
XanderWalrus  [author] Aug 6 @ 11:08am 
@Explodyman Just checked with vanilla and the names are fine must be an issue with the names conflicting those other mods overwriting them with a default vanilla list, sadly the from what I remember the launcher doesn't let you prioritize mod order so unfortunately will have to stay like that unless you go back to full vanilla.
Explodyman Aug 6 @ 11:00am 
also the only mods i have that should change localisation is UK rework and Hagekure, east asia expansion
Explodyman Aug 6 @ 10:55am 
hey, i noticed a problem with the mod. some countries are changed, like switzerland is swiss confederation and sweden is "kingdom of sweden", but some countries aren't, like Poland is still "Poland," and the baltics are still "Estonia," "Latvia," and "Lithuania"
Zandrus Aug 4 @ 11:22am 
Hey Walrus, sorry to bother, what tags did you update/change on July 6 and 7?

My PC died on me and I want to update my redux mod if it has any legacy errors that yours has fixed, i.e the Morroco stuff, or new tags, etc
XanderWalrus  [author] Jul 15 @ 3:04am 
@扫兴客NO2 There is only an English version as that is my only known/native language I have thought about doing different translations but don't want to mess them up with my lack of knowledge of other langues, if wanting to use because Alpine Flags this mod is recommended but not required.
扫兴客NO2 Jul 13 @ 9:07pm 
Can you come up with a Chinese version?
XanderWalrus  [author] Jul 7 @ 2:58am 
@donald.grape Yeah was an issue with puppeted Morroco is fixed and updated now, thanks for details.
donald.grape Jul 7 @ 2:53am 
I forgot to give more details. It only happens when you release Morocco from France as a puppet. If its created by defragmenting, the names do appear.
XanderWalrus  [author] Jul 7 @ 2:46am 
@donald.grape Must me a issue on your side just checked and they're all fine what other mods are you using if any?
donald.grape Jul 6 @ 8:23am 
Morocco doesn't have a name in any of the ideologies.
Zandrus Jul 5 @ 9:31am 
What did ya change with ya new update?
Zandrus Jul 5 @ 9:24am 
@Sneders Underfable

Not yet, checked it out myself.
Sneders Underfable Jul 4 @ 5:23pm 
Is the Honduras (Republic of Ecuador) fixed?
Zandrus Jun 30 @ 7:44am 
@XanderWalrus

I believe it was the normal puppeting by Greece going communist, and/or Yugoslavia also went to Peasent Republics. It could be either
XanderWalrus  [author] Jun 30 @ 4:02am 
@Zandrus what was the situation for it happening was it the peasant republics path/tags or just normall puppeting them?
XanderWalrus  [author] Jun 30 @ 4:01am 
@Burleon I chose Rumania as it seemed the most commonly used for English context during and before the war therefore most fitting, although after further reading the PCGN did preference it as Romania and ofc that being the official name in Romanian so if talking officially yeah that's the correct name will update it back.
Burleon Jun 29 @ 9:44am 
Please change it back to ROMANIA, Rumania was unofficial in foreign countries, Romanians always called themselves Romania, the U was a mistake from the West and shouldnt be adopted, thanks
Zandrus Jun 20 @ 12:42pm 
Found an overwrite issue, with Bulgaria being a Greek communist puppet and still called "Tsardom of Bulgaria"
meister Jun 14 @ 10:10am 
I was wondering, what is the graphics mod used in the 3rd and 4th screenshot?

Suggestion: Communist CSA should not be "Union of Socialist States of Dixieland" but "Republic of New Afrika" or something in that vain. Especially since that's been the main Communist nationalist movement in the south.

Why fascist Korea its a reublic ruled by a royal?

When Germany goes liberal democratic, it becomes German Republic, despite still having the kaiser
Zandrus May 7 @ 10:55am 
Hello Xander, I have a question. The tag with the '-' is correct in other texts, except the game world map. Its a '?" for some reason. Is there a fix for this?

Or is this a broader bug that Paradox should fix?
XanderWalrus  [author] Apr 13 @ 6:27am 
@Switching Doom Only vanilla as R56 has way too many cosmetic tags to go through and I'm more familiar with the context of vanilla cosmetic tags.
Switching Doom Apr 12 @ 1:58am 
compatible with R56?
XanderWalrus  [author] Apr 10 @ 3:53am 
@Brown Guernsey Cow
Changing Xingjiang back to Clique and adding the Provinical Government names for the cliques when puppeted by China.

For the Chinese Soviet Republic it only existed till 1937 whereas the Communist Controlled China / Soviet & Liberated Zone was used from 1937-1948 and if only one tag is present I try to prioritize the longer use ones especially when that names was used between 1939-1945, hopefully with a potential future china update PDX can add the soviet republic as a separate tag like R56.

Allies faction is one I've messed around with both League of Nations and UN I don't like as there more international organizations than a military alliance and although the UN was a name for the allies that was only after '42 similar another name I considered was the Grand Alliance but that term was only used after '41 and by Churchill which wouldn't represent any alt-history scenarios before '41 or without Churchill,
quaalude fiend Apr 9 @ 6:46pm 
Hey there. I'm just gonna drop a few suggestions really quick for names I think could be changed.

* Allies faction should be called the United Nations instead. That was the name historically used during WWII to refer to the alliance.

* Soviet Zone of China should be renamed to the Chinese Soviet Republic. That was the entity that the CCP in the region would have recognized.

* Xinjiang Provincial Government should probably just be called the Xinjiang Clique. From what I can tell, the KMT did not project power there in 1936, and Xinjiang was a de-facto protectorate of the USSR. Their leader was also not affiliated with the KMT government until the 40s, which is not represented in game (I don't expect you to change this detail).
