BEST Rat King Flags - Every Country (237 Flags)

AI disclosure: the flag textures, anthem clips and promo renders in this mod were produced by scripts written with the help of Claude (Anthropic, https://claude.ai). No generative image or audio model was used: the flags are the official national flag designs (country-flags by hampusborgos, public domain) laid over Deadlock's own stock Rat King flag texture, and the anthems are public-domain / Creative Commons recordings from Wikimedia Commons, trimmed and level-matched.

Replaces the flag on Rat King's banner with a national flag, and plays that place's national anthem during his ult (charge, leap and slam). 237 flags included: countries and territories from around the world, England / Scotland / Wales / Northern Ireland, a Nepal version cut to its real double-pennant shape, and Long Island.

Each flag keeps the original banner's painted brushwork, barbed-wire seams and torn edges, so it looks like it belongs in the game.

Two versions:
- Torn flags (torn/ folder): the flags keep the original banner's torn edges and holes.
- Full flags (full/ folder): the whole flag fills the banner with no tears. Flags keep their real proportions where possible (centered designs stay centered, canton/hoist designs stay at the pole). Same 237 flags and the same anthems.

Both versions are in the one download.

ONLY ENABLE ONE FLAG AT A TIME - every file replaces the same texture.

Install with a mod manager: tick ONE flag in the file list (Deadlock Mod Manager: untick Select All first, then tick the flag you want).
Manual install: take one file from the torn or full folder, rename it to an unused pakXX_dir.vpk and put it in Deadlock/game/citadel/addons.

Client-side only: other players see the normal flag and hear the normal ult. Territories without their own recording use their country's anthem; Antarctica, Cameroon, Guinea-Bissau, Mongolia, Solomon Islands and Togo keep the stock ult sounds (no free recording). Check preview.png in the download for the full list.
