Animated Xirmian Portraits: Revisited

Do you love Silfae's pixie-punk "Animated Xirmian Portraits" mod? Do you wish that the gameplay elements were up-to-date so that you can play the Xirmian Astral Concordate as originally designed? Then this mod is for you!

There are lots of other mods which contain these portraits, so why should you choose this one? None of the others update the custom solar system initializer or AI personality but this one does! Please enjoy my translation of Silfae's custom empire into modern Stellaris.

All gameplay features from the original mod are upgraded to be fully compatible with Stellaris 3.8 "Gemini," the latest version when this was written. Updates include:

• Clothing selector enhancements
  
  • Fixed a broken clothing selector for male rulers
    
  • Specialize some Pops with job-related clothing
    
  • Keeping with the theme of Xirmians loving a chaotic aesthetic, job-specific clothing is a random choice rather than a rule
• Simplify hairstyle selectors - it's clear that species/Pop/leader/ruler categories for each body phenotype were intended to have the same lists of styles, so a lot of repeated code could be removed
  
• Update the namelist to account for all built-in army types, remove obsolete entries
  
• Update the custom starting system initializer
  
  • Starting planet size correct
    
  • Can have guaranteed habitable worlds nearby (based on game settings)
    
  • Less complex that some of Silfae's other starting systems, so it already works with newer civics and origins
• Update the AI personality to account for new game features
  
• Remove a species trait (Communal) from the prescripted empire, because Charismatic is now 2 points
  
• The Xirmians are part of the Humanoidd species class (since Stellaris 3.8)
  
• Support being able to choose a single-gender species (since Stellaris 3.2)

Compatible with any mod that does not add the same portraits or art assets.

The Launcher will tell you that some mods are outdated - that is because the dependencies are both out of date with the game's version number. This mod overwrites and replaces all incompatible code so that the portrait mod will function as originally designed. You can safely ignore the out-of-date warning for the dependency mods.

Built for Stellaris version 3.8 "Gemini." Not compatible with achievements.

In order for this mod to function, you must install these two mods and load them before this one:

• Animated Xirmian Portraits by Silfae
  
• Silfae's city sets updated by Nozeminer

This mod should be added before the game has started. If you remove it from a game in progress, your game may have graphical problems if any species was using the custom portraits or city graphics.

This mod overwrites the corresponding species class added by "Silfae's city sets updated" so that it will not be available for use. Expect to see one line in error.log like this:

I was inspired to extend the original mod when I saw Endugu's expansion of Silfae's Animated Xirmian Portraits. Modular mods that require downloading the original mod(s) help give credit where credit is due.

An extra special thanks to Silfae for creating and sharing so many detailed, animated portraits for the community.
