If you are looking for the flag with the Swastika, i do not beleive there is one in this game. But, for you, if i am correct, i think i remember that the supermods put it back in the game.

Welcome aboard!

The stock game has the incorrect flags, due to laws in certain countries. You can find mods that add the correct one, and most (if not all) of the large mod packs add it in.

Many countries in Europe and a good proportion of the older folks are very sensitive to Nazi symbols.

There are better ones now, but the original swastika mod by CCIP was the very first mod ever made for SH3. :sunny:

To enable the 3rd reich's flag (in SH4), all you have to do is delete the texture for the PC version.

It is strange how a flag can cause so much emotion.

Don't even get me started.. :-?
Back here, all Svastika are seen as Nazi symbols only and a big taboo.
I can't help but wonder what any fellow german would say to a japanese map, where Svastika are used to show the location of Buddha statues and shrines.
Wouldn't surprise me if they accused japanese people to be nazis as soon as they saw that.. not at all.. *sighs*
Oh well, the clocks do tick different around here since '45..

Well, the swastikas used by Buddhism are the mirror image of the Nazi symbol...
