| Post subject: | Portraits question |
Hey all, I just wanted to ask a quick question that I hope has not been addressed yet (I searched, but found nothing). I have added a -bunch- of new portraits to my game, however while I was testing some other additions to the game today I made a new character and found that some of the portraits have blank white pictures. Admittingly, I didn't look after adding the last batch (as far as I remember, at least), so this is news to me. It's not a huge deal, but it's definitely more than a slight annoyance, heh. My question is if there is an easy way to find out which portrait names are the blank ones? Does the game display them in character generation based on alphabetical order? That makes the most sense, and I sure hope so heh. If not, does anyone know what order they are in? Also, I just noticed something. I seem to have waaaaay more portraits than I have files in my portraits folder (155 files / 5 for each portrait = 31 portraits). I know that what goes into the portraits folder are in addition to the default NWN portraits, so where are the extra ones I am seeing coming from? I swear my slider bar is only an either of an inch big, so there's a ton of portraits available to me, somehow. I did some testing as well and renamed my 'portraits' folder to '11111' so that it would not be accessed. Somehow, I still had all of the portraits I had available before. I also found that if I selected female for gender, I had no portraits available under any of the races I tried. Very, very peculiar. What the heck did I do to my game? XD And yes, I exited the game before making any file changes lol Boy, this turned into a bigger post that I expected. Thank you in advance, -N- |

First bit IDK. To your also bit, in your override folder, is there a file called "portraits.2da"? I guess there is. That file would be changing portraits normally assigned to monsters and npcs to be selectable by male characters. There are some similarly named downloads floating around on nwvault if you want to be able to chose from them for women too. Or you could just delete it if you only want to chose defaults and customs. But its handy to have that sort of thing available, maybe if you want to make a kobold/goblin PC and want to chose a monster portrait. |

Wow I completely forgot about that .2da. I thought about something like that, then remembered the sounds.2da and figured that must have been it haha. I remember that completely now. There is an identically named file for the male and female versions, so you can't just copy and paste them both in directly, which seemed silly to me. I'll see what I can come up with, then. Thanks! |

Yep, just found out that if I removed that .2da then all the extras disappear (minus my portraits folder, of course), along with the blank ones. Guess I'll have to live with it ;p So it looks like that answers all my questions. Hah! Convenient! Though I wonder, then, if everyone is having that issue with the HotU_Portrait_Unlocker, since that is where I got that file from? |
