I play on Linux, and I'd like to play a converted CK2 game. I know that I have to go to "set launch options" in steam and can get the mod to load with "-mod=mod/xxxx.mod". When I load the mod, however, I end up with a lot of countries named "Z00" "Z01" etc. After poking around the files, it seems like it ignores everything in the "converted_countries_l_english.yml".

What is the syntax to add to "set launch options" so that I can tell the game that I want to play xxxx.mod in English?

Edit:
Apparently this was a character encoding problem, re-saving that .yml file under UTF-8 worked.
