full country names not showing

[Ferratu]

So every country in my game(s) are showing a 3 character country code instead of the full name, at first I thought it was something to do with the most recent patch, but a friend of mine says that he still shows full names. Any idea why this would happen or how to fix it?

I assume you don't have the correct checksum (ea04), so have a corrupt installation.
Please try a full clean re-install:

- move any valued save games elsewhere
- "delete local files" in Steam
- manually delete all files and folders left under Steam/EU4 AND Documents/EU4
- re-install game in Steam, run a verify when done.

thanks for the quick reply
I can try a fresh install as a last resort, but I do have the correct checksum, and even play in multiplayer games no problem.

Has this always happened, or only since what change or update?

Have you tried doing a Steam Verify?

Any mods in use?

ah, steam verify found 2 broken files it would seem. And that fixed it, I think what happened is the auto-update for 1.4.1 didn't install properly or something.
