Slack83er Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Hi all, been searching a bit around the threads, and found many posts that spoke about WHERE to find portraits, but nothing on the HOW to use them with the game. Please forgive me if I've been too quick to ask, I may have overlooked the thread, but I'm at work now, and it's 4.30 am... - There are 10 types of people: those who understand binary code, and those who don't. - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
draego Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 (edited) If you already have the portraits, then you just need to find your 'Pillars of Eternity\PillarsOfEternity_Data\data\art\gui\portraits\player' folder and drop them in the male or female folder in this location. If you are using the steam version it will be in your steamapps folder somewhere like this 'Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common' Edited September 28, 2016 by jnb0364 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slack83er Posted September 28, 2016 Author Share Posted September 28, 2016 Thank you Jnb, do they need to be in a specific format or size? - There are 10 types of people: those who understand binary code, and those who don't. - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
draego Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Its png format. You need two portraits. The large one ends in "_lg" and is 210 x 330 and the small one "_sm" is 76 x 96. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Messier-31 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Or use this: http://www.notra.fr/portrait.php 5 It would be of small avail to talk of magic in the air... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boeroer Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 (edited) Go to deviantart.com. Search for "dwarf ranger" and "dwarf crossbow", "dwarf marksman", "dwarf assassin" and so on. Plenty of great artwork (and loads of crap, too ).And google's picture search reveals some great pictures if you search for "dwarf ranger" etc. (the following is my favorite - 100% boar ranger ):This one I also really like - that great hairdo: Edited September 29, 2016 by Boeroer Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slack83er Posted September 29, 2016 Author Share Posted September 29, 2016 The first is amazing! Even though I'll never find a boar outfit in the game... I'll try to visit the site you gave me, thanks. - There are 10 types of people: those who understand binary code, and those who don't. - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rheingold Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Hope Obs work on some more portraits for POE 2 . There is a distinct lack of options for some races. Elves, Humans and Dwarves can be found with a bit of searching, but the races distinct to Pillars, Orlans, Aumua and Godlike are a real pain, and in some cases you just can't find good portraits. 1 "Those who look upon gods then say, without even knowing their names, 'He is Fire. She is Dance. He is Destruction. She is Love.' So, to reply to your statement, they do not call themselves gods. Everyone else does, though, everyone who beholds them.""So they play that on their fascist banjos, eh?""You choose the wrong adjective.""You've already used up all the others.” Lord of Light Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boeroer Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Yes - for orlans you have to use a picture of an elf, goblin, gnome and so on and do some photoshop-magic - or gimp magic in my case. Aumaua, too, but it's rel. easy to paint some pattern on a face. Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boeroer Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 (edited) Here are my portraits that I made myself with the help of gimp when I absol. couldn't find anything that fit (I usually do): All except the first one (island aumaua chanter) and the last (hearth orlan dw sabre rogue - my my very first MC) I used for an evil playthrough with a Bleak Walker as main - and most portraits of PoE are simply not evil looking. Not great pieces of art, but they did the job. When they are smaller - in the gui - they look ok. Edit: I just remembered that the evil stag druid wasn't photoshopped by ne at all - I found the picture on deviantart.com and build a character around it instead!

Slack83er Posted September 29, 2016 Author Share Posted September 29, 2016 Well Boeroer, you see... the ones you just shown here, are the best type, those in which you only see the face. The game is also very limited in faces, beards and so on... so it's also difficult to make a char similar to his "portrait" counterpart... - There are 10 types of people: those who understand binary code, and those who don't. - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boeroer Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Why? Just crop a nice picture so that only the face is on it. Resolution is good enough most of the time. Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slack83er Posted October 3, 2016 Author Share Posted October 3, 2016 HIII again! As I'm now trying to make the aumaua buccaneer... I'm searching for aumaua portraits... what to say?? IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND! i know aumauas are just an exclusive of PoE but... a bit of love for poor sharpteeth aumauas is in order! - There are 10 types of people: those who understand binary code, and those who don't. - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
