Known bugs:
Sometimes turning on both mods at once will lead to Hungary and Romania not joining the Axis. This bug only happens when you don’t download the mod through Steam (this bug will not be an issue for the majority of people)
Troubleshooting tips:
1. Double check the validity of the descriptor files
2. Uninstall and reinstall the original mod
3. If that doesn’t work, copy the notepad files for this mod (3205704371) and paste them in their respective locations in the original mod folder (2954229125). Then, turn off this submod and turn on the base mod only. (DON’T COPY THE FOLDERS, COPY FILES INSTEAD)
