[BUG][1.12] Wrong faction spawned.

from Elemental Forums

Playing a game now where I picked all the AI leaders beforehand, hundred turns in or so I realized one of the factions I picked didn't spawn, instead I got Lord Marken leading Altar for no apparent reason. I am pretty sure the faction that was supposed to spawn in it's place was Resoln led by a custom wraith sov I have played against many times before. There is no other Altar or Gilden faction or leader on the map, so even if I had somehow picked Marken instead of the sov I wanted it wouldn't explain why he was leading Altar.

I confirm I had also some suspicious mix up, when trying to add custom factions. Problem is that these mix up don't occur in a reproducible  way.

I always play against random opponents, so I can't tell whether I experience mixups or not.  But I currently play a game in which I can't see my sov's pic  in my world map army list and in the lower left corner. When I click on the lower left and the details page comes up, the pic shows, however.

First time though. My other custom faction leaders all show.

 

Did anyone have the same phenomenon yet?

Do you mean you see the background but no sov in it? I have seen that before, seems totally random, and often I will see for example their mount but not the rider.

Anyway I started another game and got the same problem with the same custom sov. It's basically a Ceresa clone with clumsy and Procipinee's Crown added on, everything else is pretty much the same (except appearance), she leads Resoln not a custom faction. I've played against this leader multiple times before, have not changed anything about her, and just went and started a new game as her to make sure her file wasn't corrupted or something but it loaded fine. The fact that it happened with the same sov twice in two games probably means something, but I can't figure out what.

No, the whole pic is simply pitch black.
