1)It's the Burgundy cross, it's the period flag for CoAS.
Cross of Burgundy
2)I've had that happen to me with the CM and in Vanilla, I think it's some graphic issue.
So, how do I get old one back
I used JSGME, so you can just tell file name, I'll replace it with one from backup folder
The name of the file you'll want to replace is called "flagall_ship.tga.tx", this effects all the flags on ships, forts and residences in the game. So if you wish to keep all the flags except the Spanish flag, you'll have to edit the file. The old flag was a variation of the flag used from 1785 until the 1930's. The only difference is that the old flag didn't have a coat of arms, the real one did. Prior to 1785 there were two other flags which were white and bore the royal arms of Spain, depending on who was on the throne.
