issues adding a country.

[JoeSteel]

I was trying to add my own little country in the crimean area however I ran into a few problem.

1. Instead of having the proper name it simply has the Tag for it as the name (ATE). It is a port of the Antean Union from the romans in 1356 mod. I kept the country file the same as it was but up where it had the name "Antean union" i changed it to "Antea" however That didn't help so I changed the whole file to Antea and did the whole "See file name" thing but It still shows up as the Tag.

2. Starting a game as them i simply went into the save file to give myself the cores and territory and such. The only issue with all of this is that I seem to have no territory discovered for myself which makes it sort of hard to fight off the blue horde who is at my doorstep from turn one. Is there a way to make me discover the same territory as my neighbors without having to go to every damn province and edit it so that I discovered it?

Any help would be appreciated. I feel I have all my other bases covered in this and was even able to add my own culture for it (I'm proud of myself for this lol)

edit.
3. Forgot to add that even though i edited the country to be a despotic_monarchy_2 it still shows up as (no govornment) when I select it from the start. SOLVED

Have you seen that guide? It should help you troubleshoot most/all of your issues.

I just took a look at the guide and i'm going to guess that the localisation thing is the reason my country name isnt popping up for me. However looking at the MEIOU localisation I dont see the same file and none of them look like the one in the guide. It also said nothing about How I set it so I discover the provinces. I did however look over my files and realised that I put "depotic" instead of "despotic".

Ah right, the localisations you are after are MEIOU Masterlist. I quite like how tidy MEIOU's files are: practically all the events are in Events, provinces are in Province, and everything else should be in Masterlist except for some minor stuff in Pending.

As for exploration, which technology group did you assign the new nation to?

[JoeSteel]

Ok I just testing everything and it runs fine except for me discovering things. Do I have to edit the province history files to make sure my nation is there at the start of things to have all the western stuff discovered? That is the only thing i could think of.

Which tech group did you set your new nation in ? You should be able to see every province known by your tech group. Be sure to check the spelling of your tech group name.
