How hard is it to add new portraits?

[Cyrus_Blackfeather]

Hey guys, 

 

So... I was wondering if someone could give me a quick rundown on how to add portraits to the game - can I drop them into the game proper or does it have to be done as a mod? Also, can I experiment with them in offline mode, or do I have to have the game in online mode to be able to add portraits? None of the available options really suit the kind of character I want to play.

..1 second of furious google found this http://www.notra.fr/portrait.php

I guess poe2 uses the same portraits as poe1. Correct if im wrong.

But anyways this could be moved to modding section..

First is getting the portraits you want. Refer to the running thread Portraits ??

 

 

You basically need 4 images and you need to save them as

filename_convo.png (watercolor 90 x 141)

filename_si.png (watercolor 76 x 96)

filename_sm.png (normal 76 x 96)

filename_lg.png (normal 210 x 330)

 

Navigate to the following path (where your steam apps reside)

 

Example

F:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Pillars of Eternity II\PillarsOfEternityII_Data\gui\portraits\player\male

F:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Pillars of Eternity II\PillarsOfEternityII_Data\gui\portraits\player\female

 

Copy and paste the images there and you can use them ingame.
