Hi to everybody!
My english is awful and i never before wrote on any foreign forums , so there is a big chance that i will write something stupid....
I don't have expirience in making mods, but i tried to make new kingdom in late period. It's Crimean Khanate on Crimean peninsula,because it's make more sense to me that this kingdom is presented rather than Genoa . I followed the steps thah you guys posted here but something get wrong. I think that I've done all necesery things but when i started new game i was able only to choose amongst kingdoms in first early period. Even more something get wrong with flags amd when i choose some realm , flag of that realm is shown in uper left corner of the screen, also the letters beneath flag is deformed .... i don't have a clue why this is hapening. Maybe is because i don't know how to find cordinates in maps/europe/politmap/kingdomnamepos2. If anyone could help me I wiil apreciate it.

Few days ago I also tried to make a relam of Volga Bolgars but i failed to separate this khanate in Early period from Kazan in middle period. I can play in early period but when i try to select two others period my game collapsed.

I'm sorry , but my english sucks....

Finding solution for all of Your problems is quite difficult. There can be many things You did wrong or didn't do at all. However, if You want to put the flag to the correct place on the map, then my advice would be just trying out different coordinates until they fit. That's how I did it at least.

By the way, Your English is not so bad at all. I can quite well understand what do You mean. Unlike some people, You actually use capital letters in the beginning of sentences and also use punctuation marks, which is very nice.

Thanx lad.

I fallowed steps posted in topic "what can you edit and where". I think that I've done everything necessery. This is what I've done:

maps\europe\kings\crimean khanate;1200.txt
maps\europe\kings\kingdoms.ini
maps\europe\politmap\kingdomnamepos2.in2 - i put same coordinates
maps\europe\map\kingdoms_1200.ini
maps\europe\map\train_units.xls
maps\europe\map\train_units.txt
Texts\map\kingdomdescr.tsv

And result looks like this:

Good Luck finding where your mistake is, think you have no choice but to double check everything.

It's likely you made a typing mistake somewhere. Reverse some of the changes until the game works again. Then you can look closely at the parts you needed to reverse. That's the standard procedure for modding, actually. :)
Also try to modify existing nations. You can learn about the game's behaviour that way and problems will start making more sense.
The problem with the flags in particular is propably caused by a spelling mistake in maps\europe\politmap\kingdomnamepos2.in2 - maybe you made a serious mistake or only forgot a space in a specific location, but that's enough to mix up the game.

So again: Revert the changes and do them single step by single step. Otherwise you won't be able to pin down problems.
