Fucking hell. I hate that about this game. 1 update and all the mods break

Does not appear to work for 4.0

Anyone can relate to perosn below me ? if its working or no on 4.0 ?

Did the new update break this mod? It showed up in my crash log.

For some reason, the Collectors do not appear

Well I’ve managed to do it myself somehow. Lol Thanks for the reply!

Doing GIMP is not fun, especially unshapely monsters (e.g. the Rachni). So I'm entirely not motivated to do a xenomorph. Besides, I've moved to using a Steam Deck now so I don't know how to efficiently update my mod. I'll eventually try to figure it out if they break after a few patches. As of now, they still work. Lol. I'm not updating them unless they break.

This is awesome! Would it be possible for you to make something like this but for the xenomorphs off alien? There’s a few mods with good portraits but all break achievements. I tried doing it myself but about went insane in my attempt.

not sure if this is working anymore :(

This is correct behaviour.

1. Create that race with a correct Species name, this time "Asari"
2. Choose the Portrait for your Ruler, so she is an Asari.
3. Start the game by ignoring these little odds and stuff.
4. You will see the correct Asari in the game.

When I create a race and select a race from Mass Effect, the portrait from the base game appears. LINK: https://files.fm/u/w3387vq7c :(

I'll wait until the new patch drops and see if there are things broken. In the meantime, if you have run into problems, just describe it and see if I can fix it.

New version please. 3.6.1.

@joshua.yathin.yu
I confirmed I added the name-lists in the past by deleting the mod completely in the workshop-folder and redownloaded. I am sorry I have bothered you here. Again thanks for this mod. It is really nice to play with a ME-theme :)

Must be a mix-up.

Or maybe I added those in the past deleted that mod but the file was still there and when redownloading the mod recently it just added the common files which were still on the disk? In that case apologies. I didn´t realized the workshop flaws here in that case

@joshua.yathin.yu
I looked up in the assets-mod workshop\content\281990\1756982970. There you have 6 namelists under common/name_lists for System Alliance, Asari, Cerberus, Quarian, Turian and Salarian....

I haven't included namelists in either mods. We can only wait for Paradox to fix anything. Sorry about that.

@joshua.yathin.yu
OK..of course that is the main goal of your setup I understand. But in your mod are namelists already - so in the graphical assets mod, I mean. As those are in without changing the achievements I thought one can update those...? Nevertheless as I said it is just minor and anyway appreciate the work you have done here!

Namelists are checksummed. Preserving the compatibility of achievements, I will not make any change to namelists even if they're broken. We can only wait for Paradox to fix anything on this matter.

@joshua.yathin.yu
Hi: I enjoyed this mod in my last run and wanted to start a new one with the 3.6.1 version. I have just a minor request: The sequential names of armies and fleets seem to have stopped working. I think I saw they changed some naming comventions there. Is it possible to update the namelists?

Noticed there is a bug with the Quarian and elf portraits, with the elves loosing hair

Its all sweet. I just made all the races lol. No problems

Very likely you don't have some Portraits due to DLC, for example the Anniversary Portraits or something. I've been so away from this so I can't really tell.

Mostly working now, but I dont get some of the prescripted empires. I have the Synthetic Dawn DLC, but I only have one of the Geth factions (Sovereignty). I'm missing Salarians and the Utopia factions as well for some reason.

Excellent

Should work now

S'all good man!

Been busy recently. I'll see about putting some work onto it over the coming few days.

Yeah, the human characters have no hair

Could we get a 3.5 update please? The Bald Illusive Man is starting to freak me out.

Some of the portraits either dont show or they show one of the default races in the leader screen

It makes sense that they would disappear due to conflicts. This mod has been made to be as compatible as possible with the base game.

For some reason when I use Ethics and Civics classic with this mod, half the Mass Effect Races disappear, like Turians, Migrant Fleet, System Alliance and a few others

The Krogan images are taken from Andromeda. And the current layout is the only method to have changeable clothes on different plate colours.

Jackpot. It means I win. Don't need to apologise.

@joshua.yathin.yu whoops you were right. There are18 Stellaris dlcs not 17. Sorry to bother you.

@joshua.yathin.yu negative I have the dlc active right now. How can I send you a screen shot?

It could be possible you've missed out the DLC Anniversary Portraits. It's a free pack but you could have missed it. I've seen people missing it before.

Would you paste the message in your error log? I don't see any mention of similar wordings in mine.

Is anyone else not seeing the rachni prescripted empire in the list or is it just me.

@joshua.yathin.yu the thing is the rachni are not spawning in the prescripted list and the error log is mentioning this inconsistancy.

It is working as intended. You know I have to put graphics on top on predefined "Entities". Rachni have a very strange shape. So the only Entity that can fit the pictures in is the reptilian_massive_14. So I named the asset files like that to reflect which Entity the new Portraits are using.

@joshua.yathin.yu There appears to be something wrong with your rachni portraits. In the prescripted country file they are listed as antropods, where as in the asset file they are listed as reptilians. Is there any way you can fix this?

it works was a conflict

Excellent! How goes it? Have you confirmed the issue? Do I need to fix anything?

i was just about to try that

If you have a suspicion, the quickest way is to try turning the other mod off yourself instead of waiting for me to try. You know, I would need to find that particular mod and install it by myself before I could try it.

So, I will wait until you've done so before I investigate.

I don’t know if it’s a mod issue or a conflict with a mod (Most likely cause I use United races for example) but I don’t see the other races u listed?
