Question: Custom Character Portraits in NWN?

[Big Bad Bear]

Hi Guys,

just a quick question here, BG and BG2 had an option to include custom char portraits, now i'm just wondering if NWN has such an option too? There IS this folder installed called "portraits" so...

Any ideas?

(ps: Mods, if i posted this in the wrong forum Sorry! Super Newb here!)

Yes, there is. [img]smile.gif[/img]
First, find the portrait you want. Then, in the 'Portraits'-folder, you must place the following:

-A 256x512 version of the pic, having a 'H' at the end of the name
-A 128x256 version, having a 'L' at the end
-A 64x128 version, having a 'M' at the end
-A 32x64 version, having a 'S' at the end
-A 16x32 version, having a 'T' at the end

Well actually I have one more question: How can I get these pics in the single player official campaign? Or will they just work for multiplayer and / or non official mods?

Are you talking about the portraits? They can be used everywhere; they should show up among all the other portraits when making a new character.
