Is there any special instructions for installing this? Do we need a special portaits.2da or?

Nope, just extract the resulting .tga files into your '...\Neverwinter Nights Diamond Edition\portraits' folder, and you're good to go. If 'portraits' doesn't exist, just make it.
May you live in interesting times.

Is this still updated? I modeled my character's appearance based on her portrait and it'd be a shame if I'm the only person who sees it.

Crag's not dead yet, so I'd imagine it is.

This should be a steam workshop submission so whenever you update it all the 'subscribers' automatically get the updates.

And I just came here to make the exact same suggestion. Having this on the workshop as well as here would be awesome.

Oh the year was 1778...

We need more gobo and monster portraits in there. There is one in the core game that I use for a female gobo it must be a wight or something but its cool.

I don't know the TOS of Steam Workshop, but you should look it up to make sure you don't upload content that wasn't made or belong to you.

Hi Crag, great job on the portraits!

Quick request - would you be able to remove all portraits tagged with AdreannaDrea in them please? I'm hosting them on Steam and I've overwritten quite a few of them with different portraits since I started the pack.

Let me know if you need any help with steam hosting queries too, I've spent the last few days on that headache myself :p

Does this pack come with the portraits you can unlock that are already in the base game? Just something I noticed with the filenames.

Is it alright if we put an OOC note in our character examine pages to download this portrait pack if readers can't see the portrait?

I can't speak for anyone but myself, but I generally dislike any kind of OOC note in descriptions unless it's for a lore check.

Are any of the portraits in the pack your intellectual property, or just portraits you've collected from different sources over the years?
Hiya Crag, not sure if they'd count as my personal intellectual property, they're mostly files I've collected, curated, and edited with various GIMP work to add/remove scars, eye colour, hair colour, freckles, etc. I have spent quite a lot of time on all of that though, so I guess as they're tagged with my username, I'd say they were.

My issue with it mainly is that I didn't make my packs 'public' before now, just gave them to Kregor to distribute as he saw fit, but now that they are, I'd like to remain consistent. Some of my previous work I've pruned from my packs, and overwritten because they failed to meet my quality standards, or are just older versions of portraits I've made. For the sake of consistency I'd like all portraits tagged with my name to be the same, so that if a person logs in and sees a character with one of my portraits, both sides can be certain they're seeing the same image of their character.

If you or others enjoy the portraits, naturally they're free to get on Steam, or via email for a zipped file!

Thanks for understanding,
Kayla
