Certain Provincial Localizations Not Working

[Marinakis]

Hello,

Does anyone have any idea why certain culture specific localizations don't work when I alter them or add them to the localization provincenames_l_english file?

For instance, if I add -

PROV363_hellenic:1 "Neápolis Thráki"
or
PROV899_hellenic:0 "Theodóra"

The Hellenized version of the provincial name doesn't updated in the game, despite the province owner being a Greek nation. Does this have something to do with the 0-3 number immediately following PROVXXX_hellenic:?

If so, what exactly does that number represent and how do I correct the issue?

If not, does anyone have any idea how to correct the issue? I have added a ton of localizations to the eastern Mediterranean and, while most are working properly, many are not working at all.

I had the same problem earlier. There's additional files dictating how the localization of provinces is read by the game.
Located at \\ImperatorRome\game\common\province_names\ .

You basically have to declare which provinces should get their localization changed per which culture group in the above folder and then add the corresponding entries in the actual localization folder.

By default there's a few per Culture Group there, it's easy to add more following the existing format.

Or if I am misunderstanding you and you've done all that, I also found that changing the Culture Group localization of a province does not take effect until after starting a new game.

This is probably it

Thank you!

Still, just out of curiosity, incase it causes a conflict in the future, do you know what the extra 0,1,2 or 3 means/is doing within the localization file?

I.E. -
PROV363_hellenic:1 "Neápolis Thráki"
or
PROV899_hellenic:0 "Theodóra"

No idea. Those numbers pop up sometimes in the vanilla files, but I just always use whatever_text:0 " " . So far no issues.

Thanks again.
