Portrait question

Post by NoxNoctum »

I'm trying to put in a portrait for use with my PC, and I've got 3 files now with the 3 required sizes, 38x60, 110x170 and 210x330. My main question is how do I name them? I've been seeing some conflicting info on this, cause I want my portrait to work with the epilogue too (don't spoil anything for me I haven't played it yet, but I've heard this is an issue with portraits)

The readme file says to name the larger one (i.e. the 110x170 file) XXXXXXL but then what do I need to name the really big one? (the 210x330 one that gets used at the end of the game)

thanks

Let's see, if I recall, your portrait name can't be more than six characters long, and you need to add an "L" or "S" at the end. For example, the portraits I am currently using are named "SellyL" and "SellyS", and they work fine. So I think any name is valid, as long as it is not more than 6 characters long. If you have done something wrong, the portrait simply wont show up in the list ingame. As for the "epilogue portrait", I'm afraid that is something I must have missed and cannot help you with. Good luck!
Selinde Truesword- I am clearly deranged. Look who I travel with! Minsc, meet the Pirate Lord!

Minsc- Pirate Lord? Such a name does not conjure images of righteous behavior. Stand still a moment and let Boo have a look at you.

Desharik- Er, why is your friend pointing a hamster at me?
