I was reading Six's BG guide which gives a method for changing NPC portraits in BG1 by just naming a custom portrait with the proper NPC's name and putting it into the Portraits directory. I have tried to use this method on a BG2 game with no luck. Is there a way to give NPC's custom portraits in BG2?

If possible, I would like to avoid using SK, as it proves much too tempting if I have it installed on my machine.

I have tried naming .bmp files AerieL, AERIEL, JaheiraL, and MINSCL and using both brand new games, saved games with NPCs already in party, and a saved game just outside the circus tent to test meeting Aerie.
