Hipster's Flags (updated)

Description
Before you ask, yes, this is ironman compatible. All this mod does is change some flags.

I have removed the filter and redone most of the flags that were in the original, with a few new ones.

I think most of these look best with the TBARW UI, but they're passable with the default.

Flags list 1:
ADU, ALB, ANS, ARA, ARB

Umayyad Caliph banner for Andalusia, Kastrioti arms for Albania, Hohenzollern-Ansbach quartered arms, Aragonese senyera quartered with the Sicilian eagle senyera, Abbasid Caliph banner for Arabia.

HSC, HUN, IRE2, ITA2, KIE

Larger cross with more contrast for Jerusalem, historical X-shaped cross on Congolese flag, arms on the Krakowian flag to distinguish it from Westphalia, arms on the Couronian flag because they're cool, Lebanese tree flag.

LIE, LVA, MAG, MAZ, MKL
Liege flag instead of arms, a more stylistically similar griffon for Livonia, Magdeburg city arms on their flag, contemporary Mazovian standard, different bull on Mecklenburg flag.

To replace the flags with any of the optional flags, you can delete the original flag inside of the mod folder for whatever tag and then just remove the 2 from the alternate in the mod files.

Can You update the mod?

Would you mind adding an Imperialist Revolutionary flag for France? Would just like it to fit the period; I mean, all I'd like for you to just put on Napoleon's crest onto the flag and that's kinda it :3

No manual download?

It should be compatible without any problems. I just haven't gotten around to adjusting the version number.

Does this work with 1.19?

That is the historically accurate flag for Genoa and England both, Trier and Georgia also have similar flags. The Byzantine and Catalan flags also have the red-on-white cross as part of the flag The cross of St. George was, to say the least, a popular motif in early European flags.

On an unrelated note, I'm redoing everything without the filters right now, so everything will probably look better.

Genoa and England seems like the same flag. Maybe try using something like this for genoa instead:
