BG2 NPC Custom Portraits?

Post by Minotaur »

Hi all.

BG2 is my favorite RPG and I am currently in the process of getting and installing some add ons.

One thing bugs me though - though I love most of my NPC's the LOOK of them, after having played the game to one level or another time and again, is really getting to me.

Is it possible to chage the normal portrait and/or voice? Actually, I would be happy just to change the portrait. :)

Thanks all.

It's really easy.

First, Download or create the desired portraits (of appropriate size). Set them up in the "Portraits" folder in your BG2 directory. Save a game (not a quicksave or autosave) and Open it up with Shadowkeeper. Move to your the NPC you want to swap portraits on and click change portrait. Save your changes and enjoy.
