[1.2] custom sovereign loses his head

from Elemental Forums

installed version 1.2 and started a new game, the old sovereign lost his head, so I created a new one, have played and beaten the game (with no more than the 1.19n bugs)

started a new game, the custom sovereign lost his head again, this time I didn't create a new one, the sovereign didn't have any weapon or armor, and a bunch of headless units appeared near the pioneer

notice the map borders, the game seems to use the dimension of the preceding map, at the beginning of the last game the borders of the map of the preceding game were visible, where you can see colored pixels

as for other texture bugs, this one disappears if you exit and start the game again

Do you have any mods installed? I've had this happen with expanded factions (when I wasn't using the factions). I deleted the files and everything was fine. Now that beta testing is over, I've reinstalled the mod and am using an expanded faction with a custom sov who has her head. Maybe you have to use an expanded faction with your custom sov or they will lose their head (and their units heads)? Is Heavenfall around? :grin: I have no idea if you have expanded factions loaded, I just had the same experience with that. A lot of my previous custom sovs lost their heads - did that also happen to yours?

I ran into this issue a few times. I just reinstalled the app and the issue went away. The custom sovereign is stored in the My Games folder so it is saved.
