THIS MOD APPEARS TO BE CK2+AIO COMPATABLE

Commenting because this mod is a lifesaver in terms of being able to take those butterfaced Norse portraits seriously so I thought I'd let others know that it appears to be working fine for me, so it should work fine for you.

You can make this mod compatible with achievements in the same way as Northern Portraits (you just need to delete the common folder).

Is it possible to change hairstyle change from transition out of 'early' period?

hello, can I use some of your assets for a mod I'm working on? I'll give full credits of course.

Apart from those norse noses, and the slightly too pale indians, manics mods are great. Thanks

If anyone's annoyed as me about those huge norse noses, if i'd be easily pissed off i 'd even call them offensive, then copy the three alternative nose files from manics_portraits\gfx\characters\norse_male\alternates
into the "norse_male" folder onelevel above. On that occasion i turned the mod for myself into an unpacked variant, so not sure if that works fine when done inside the zipped file.

are the northern portraits ironmad compatible still?

Hey can you make a mod that replaces the vanilla Outremer unit model with the holy order unit model i would do it but idk how to mod shit

Hey Manic, I want to ask your permission to use your portraits in my upcoming mods. I know that I asked a few years ago, but that was for a different mod that I'm planning to release soon.

Amazing, thank you!

@ManicMayo mouths are bugged for WTWSMS

Strange, for me they use old altaic ones

@Hoffman - As far as I am aware, the Bolghars already use Turkish portraits.

Hey, what do you think about applying Turkish portraits to Bolghar culture?

@charlesccblelpfe - Oops, it seems I forgot! The external version should now be up to date, thanks for the reminder.

is the downloadable version updated?

@ManicMayo
I've given it a bit of thought. The Outremer culture in CK2 never really existed in history - the Frankish lords in the crusader states never adopted Levantine stylings as the portraits suggest. Based on the stuff in game, it seems to be based in the fictionalized 13th century Kingdom of Jerusalem portrayed in the film Kingdom of Heaven, where French nobility have adopted some Arabic cultural habits and a mix of Byzantine, French, and Levantine styles. Practically, I would use some of the gaudier Italian, Arabic, and Late Byzantine clothes with French faces. That's what I tried to do - but portrait modding is more complex than history and bloodline modding, which is what I'm used to.

@Secret Monitor - I wasn't planning on making any new portrait mods but I might be willing to give it a go. I'll admit that even I struggle with the Frankish/Outremer portrait code which is much more complex than the others. What sort of look were you imagining for these portraits?

Would you ever consider making a portrait mod for Outremer? I've been trying to create one myself but I can't make heads or tails of the code.

patch for HIP?

Has anyone tested if this works with HIP? Or would a patch need to be made?

@Valerian of Naples - Sure, no problem :)

Hey, Manic, I wanted to use your portraits in a mod compilation I'm working on, and I was wondering if you'd allow me to publish it to the workshop?

Thank you for your work on these mods - and then compiling them. Looks awesome

I also have the same question about HIP. Compatible with HIP? Will you make it compatible?

Feel free to @ me

And can you rebuild russian portraits in the future? Because the are still ugly

Would you do compatible with Better Looking Garbs (Full) mod?

Would you ever make these HIP compatible? Haven't tried it out myself, only asking because it's the only mod I always play on.

@K-T - No problem, glad you got it to work!

@Conramagne - Not at all, please feel free to use the contents of this mod in whatever way you and your team see fit

Thanks for looking into it! Turns out I'm an idiot and was missing the Early Western and Eastern clothing DLCs. All good now!

@K-T - Unfortunately I cannot replicate this issue on my end. Does this affect both the early and mid/late-game Anglo-Saxons? If it's only in the early game, make sure you have enabled/purchased the Early Western Clothing Pack DLC as this mod cannot work without it.

If you have all the required DLC and are sure you have no other mods enabled (or modified vanilla files), I'd recommend either resubscribing or using the non-Steam version as mod files can often be corrupted when downloading from the workshop.

Curiously, neither male nor female Anglo-Saxons can wear clothes when I have this mod enabled. All other cultures seem fine. For the record, I have no other mods running.

Overall, very nice mod.

Could you add Hungarian portraits please?

Skin colour of North and South Indians have been made darker.

Streamlined/optimised the file structure to make it more compatible with other mods.

@Lord Xeren - It is common for mods to be corrupted or somehow damaged when downloading them from the Steam Workshop. I'd recommend either re-subscribing or using the non-Steam version (link above) to see if that fixes your issue. You could also try running the game without any other mods enabled to see if there's anything conflicting with it.

seems I'm missing a dlc but I have them all. could it be some issue with steam?

UPDATE: Added Manic's Indian Portraits which alters the faces of (North) Indian and South Indian graphical cultures. Headgear, clothing, hairstyles and beards remain unchanged.

Fixed a bug with Anglo-Saxon which incorrectly displayed headgear_mid for characters of a different graphical culture when wearing a helmet.

Removed the 00_portrait_properties.txt file which was accidentally added to the mod in the last update. If you noticed any problems running this with other mods after the last update, this should now be fixed.

UPDATE: Headgear and clothing of Persian females have been re-positioned slightly so that they better fit the new faces. Fixed a minor graphical bug with helmets worn by non-Persian males who have Persian graphical culture.

@grachewin - The Manic's Units group of mods are considered complete and I don't actively update them anymore. Regarding the Hungarian units, I have yet to receive a single complaint about the designs used so I wouldn't feel comfortable making such drastic changes to them when people are seemingly content with the way things look already. My apologies.

Sorry, but if you have free time, please answer me. I think you can change longbeard hungarian (early spearman and mid heavy infatry) units by same russian and turcic. Because maidgeim russian H I is vvery same with hungarian units in this period. Also, I think Phinno-ugric spearman in early game in Hungry must be changed on turcic spearman, it is also same with hungarian in this period. Yes, I know Madiar is Finno-ugric and a lot of Mari and Bachkir go with their, but in steppes they was change. If you don't agree with me, I'm sorry.
Tnank for your attention and perfect mods.

Switched yesterday to this, instead using all your single portrait mods. Thanks a lot!

Awesome mod! Keep up the good work!

UPDATE: Just realised I forgot to add the culture file from the Northern Portraits mod. It has been added and the Anglo-Saxons, Saxons and Frisians should now correctly use the new Northern clothing/headgear and German hairstyles.
