Default Glory SP map province name gaffes

Hello all,

I'm new to the forums and began playing fairly recently, so please forgive me if this has been addressed, but, after getting fairly heavy into a very enjoyable game on the single-player Glory map (v3.17), I found to my OC-Purist dismay that there are some serious gaffes in the province names, and was wondering if it is just me with some sort of version mismatch or other problem, and if not, if someone has ever made a .map file with a full slate of hand-placed province names.

The problem is most pronounced, as I'm sure is already well-known (again, unless I'm working with some sort of .map file mismatch or something), in the SW corner, where you have land provinces with sea province names and vice-versa, as well as less egregious but equally immersion-breaking name mismatches.

I have checked the original file as well as the v3.17 corrected version, but they both have the same name problems for the SP map.

So, that said, and assuming that's the state the map has been left in without correction, has anyone made a nice, hand-named version? And, if not, would it be of interest if I went ahead and made a version without all that name messiness? (I am thinking of more thematic mythological and historical names, rather than the usual Dragon Forest type tolkeinesque names and so forth.)

Or is it all pretty much irrelevant because, once people have been playing a while, they all just go with random names or use Semirandom?

Any thoughts (and particularly links to hand-named Glory maps) would be appreciated!

Thanks all.

Globu
