I noticed quite some time ago in my 1880 game that Austria is displayed only as Austria and not Austria-Hungary as it should be, is there a way to script them to be called Austria-Hungary? I know that in the 1850 scenario there's an event for that, but if in case I edited this event to make it take place into my game is it going to work? Or is it more complex than that?

if I recall, the event that changes the name is purely cosmetic. In my game I used Austria's defeat by Italy to produce Germany (ie Prussia choose to exploit my win) and swap them to A-H (ie my win had the impact of their 1866 defeat). The latter produced no noticeable dissent or other problems, just a change of flag on the map so you are pretty safe just to run the event again.

you may need to rename it to make it fire as the 1880 scenario file may have coded it as already fired.

Oh great! That's what I wanted to hear/read!

Well the event didn't change anything...does anybody have any idea if it's possible for them to be properly displayed as Austria-Hungary?

I was taking a look at the wiki and found the SetFacDisplayNames http://www.ageod.net/agewiki/SetFacDisplayNames

Do you think this could made Austria be displayed as Austria-Hungary?

What do you think Loki? When you made the event in your game did it change Austria to Austria-Hungary?

Could anyone tell me if there's a way to make this change?

Hmmm. no idea. I know Loki and them don't come here as often as they might have used to I think, but maybe if you PM him he might answer?

I'm always in touch with them, they come really often to the forums and we exchange pms almost daily, but I think not even they know how to solve this. I thought that making the event for the compromise to fire agai would solve the issue, but it didn't, the event happened et all, but no changes were made, they were still called Austria, and military control "austrians" etc...a pity, it's not a big issue, but I think it would boost immersion if they were correctly called Austria-Hungary in the 1880 scenario.

As it's not such a big issue I decided to wait til one of the developers find the time to take a look at my post (as they're usually busy, I might end up waiting til I finish my campaign :mdr . By the way, have a look at my AAR, I think you'd enjoy it

Cheers

Oh dear Lord ... could anyone try to help me here?

patience young padawan. Look another week for posible replys. It is old game, so forum is not so much active when game was max 1 year old.

I think there is a command to change a nation tag. Look at the wiki.

If you could tell me which command is it I would be forever happy

Thank you very much, but what option is that they say is necessary to be activated?

Oh...I have already used this one before when I made the event of the Auscompromise happen again, but still no changes at all...
Here's the event I made:

SelectFaction = $CMN
SelectRegion = $Ungarn
StartEvent = evt_nam_AUS_Compromise1902|1|2|evt_txt_AUS_Compromise1867|Event-img_AUS_Compromise1867|$Ungarn|NULL

ChangeFacMorale = 3
ChgVPCount = 1000
ChangeLoyaltyFac = $Area_Hungary;30

SelectFaction = $REB
ChangeLoyaltyFac = $Area_Hungary;-30

SelectFaction = $AUS
ChgFacDisplayTag = AUH
ChgRgnDecisionFP = $rgdProsecute;3

EndEvent

The event happened, but didn't changed anything...

Please someone help me here, I just can't understand why with this event they don't change to Austria-Hungary if in the 1850 campaign they do, please would someone take a look at it?

Btw thank you very much Kensai for trying to help, but I still cannot change their tag

Puzzling. It should turn your AUS country in AUH (you still keep the AUS tag as well), which will turn your country to the new flag and rest. Are you sure the event fires alright? Make sure it fires correctly and then post the log here, if possible.

seems it didn't fire in my games too (German as well as Russian), never gor the Austro-Hungarian flag

a matter of internal clock ?

I'm pretty sure the event fired, I saw the popup etc...after I watch the soccer game now between Germany and Portugal I'll post a screeshot here.

I'm pretty sure no one has got Austria-Hungary flag on map. If you look at Prussia, there is faction tag $PRU = 171 and there is faction tag $GER = 78, so Prussia can transform into Germany.
But there is no faction tag AHU in factions file, so there is not defined all that graphics stuff.

You can change easily AUS to AHU in 15-AUS.fac file, which will change TAG, but not corresponding graphics. There will be no flags at all, just empty places instead AUS flags.
But it is true that in the 1880 scenario should be Austria-Hungary instead of Austria.
Yest still there is str1880ScenarioVC_AUS.
