More Lore Portraits 1 + Portrait Specification Framework

Hey guys, I added a feature in the most recent update to PSF. There are now settings to include vanilla portraits in the pools so if you'd like you can still include them without tagging. In a future update I'll add tags for the vanilla portraits with an option to use/ignore them in favor of another mod's tags

I wouldn't expect you to! Just keep doing what you do (making banger portraits)

@Finvarra

I may attempt to link all the vanilla portraits one day... but not any time soon.

From what I gathered by talking to the dev on the discord in the #modding channel, the way that that mod works is that all the default portraits remain in the pool for all characters of that gender by default, but only the humanoid races

so stuff like fairies, snails, monsters, etc.. get no portrait by default

you have to add manually portraits for them with the links

@Finvarra

I may be doing something wrong because the creator themselves made this mod https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3370432145

which supposedly actually gets it to work the vanilla portraits, but I haven't seen a single person who isn't the creator of PSF successfully implement it correctly.

I think I will have to wait until the mod either PSF dev makes default portrait links or for someone who understands the lore better than me to make one.

Probably best way to solve that is to create a single snail portrait and link it to c_f_snail and c_m_snail and c_n_snail

But yeah I agree that it is way too much work to make you (or other modders outside the PSF) handle vanilla behavior

@Finvarrar

Yes that is the exact issue I was mentioning, I don't want to nor do I feel qualified enough to be the one to link all the vanilla portraits. I know what my portraits are for so I can easily link them accordingly.

idk if you can see it in the mod files but all of my portraits are already linked/tagged in this version of the mod, I did it quite differently then you thought which is another reason why I don't want to link default portraits.

I did my tagging more like this:
c_donwon_f-01:c_f_tourist_eulderna,c_f_tourist_juere,c_f_tourist_norland,c_f_tourist_roran
This way, that portrait only shows up for human like races and the tourist class. It takes a lot longer but is that not the whole point of PSF to make it so that random snails don't look like humans. I could probably lose the classing to make it easier on myself and stick to races though...

example link document is the one I manually used to get the links working for portrait mods I have downloaded

c_donwon_f-11:c_f_priest,c_f_inquisitor,c_f_paladin,c_f_executioner

it is like 5 times longer than this but character limit

you would need to link the vanilla portraits you want to different classes though, if you wanted them to be tied to different classes

once you specifically name a class with the PSF format, then it will only give that class portraits you named for that class/race combo

it should work properly with the vanilla portraits too if you just unsubscribe and resubscribe to the latest version of PSF, then create a file named
'portrait_specification_framework_links.txt' in your mod's workshop folder (this can actually be done INSIDE the original mod More Lore Portraits

then you just create links using this format
