I don't code though, which is why I use MacAwesome's code.

All the code does is place the top of the border behind the character portrait. It would have to do the same for regency borders.

I'm thinking of getting rid of the code and just using the dds files. That would mean portrait border tops would go over helmets and crowns, but the mod would pretty much always work.

It would almost eliminate the need to update.

I forgot about the Regencies. If you do that, I might use your code in Noble Frames Updated, if you do not mind.

I see. Thanks for letting me know. I'm probably going to redesign this mod so it just replaces dds files instead of using code. Would make updating pretty much unnecessary that way. Also, paradox added regency portrait borders, so I'll be incorporating those as well. Hopefully this weekend.

I was going to use MacAwesome code for the mod I am maintaining, but when I compared my old one and his, they were identical. So there was no change in the code, that I noticed.

My solution is prolly going to change the look a bit though. I'm very busy running my own game studio and don't have the time to keep updating my mods. Thanks for understanding :)

The mod works on 1.9, aside from a very insignificant little dark line on the top left corner of some portrait borders. This may be due to older code. I see that MacAwesome updated his mod so this weekend, I'll update the code in this one and hopefully that will solve the tiny glitch. That said, I'm looking at ways to have this not require code as that would mean I would no longer need to keep updating this every single patch.

Update after I return from my trip on TUESDAY, IF NECESSARY

Maybe that what it is, Steward, but there is some issue with the screens. I posted on multiple Title-Portrait mods and did test on them also.

I let MacAwesome know of the potential issue.

Thanks.

"We are both Cheiftains, should have the brown and green. but when I got to these screens it does not show."

I don't think that's possible. He's just a courtier and a steward hehe

That said, yeah, there seems to be a problem with those other instances.

I can't do much to fix that. It's obviously code, so I'm steering clear of it.

As soon as MacAwesome updates his code, I'll do the same here.

Meanwhile, I'm guessing the only portrait border mods that work are the achievement compatible ones, as they only edit a texture file. I didnt create that version for this mod cause I couldnt care less about achievements though

I did not test MacAwesome mod with that, but he might need to be made aware if you use his template.

There were some GUI tweaks in this latest patch.

Yeah there seems to be some issues with the new Rival Icons and the other new ones, on certain screens.

MOD SEEMS TO WORK WITH 1.7

However, I'm not a coder. I only do textures. The code part of this mod will be updated IF/when MacAwesome updates his mod.

I will test it out when update drops. Probably in a month or so it will drop. It’s going to be a pretty significant update, also going to be a DLC.

@Royal Raven I haven't been following the game much lately. Didnt know about new icons. That said, I am pretty sure it would be a different dds altogether. If they drop a patch, or release a DLC or something, I'll look into stuff and keep my mods updated. But I don't think this one will need an update, unless its the code part, which I don't really mess with. I just borrow the code from macawesome's mod

Nice, started to use this mod again, was using another portrait borders for a while. Hope the new friends, enemies, nemeses, etc, icons won't mess these portrait borders mods up. I don't think they would since those new icons might be a layer above the border colors.

WORKS FINE WITH 1.6. WILL UPDATE DESCRIPTOR SOON.

@Morven thank you for your mods as well! :)

Paradox? Bugs? Haha.
Thanks also for your icons project mod, I've really enjoyed that.

I didn't not know either until today. Someone posted it in Reddit. I was like really! So I had to load up a vanilla save. Give PDX 2 years, they might make them better, lol.

I mostly play modded game.

Hah! No I actually didnt know that cuz i always play with my mods on.

And of course, I think they look horrible LOL

I am not sure you guys know this, but I didn't. At some point the Devs added in portrait borders to the game, I think last patch. I did not see change notes for it. Here is some screenshots of vanilla.

@Morven sheesh.. paradox breaking things huh.
Thanks for the patch!! :)

Hi mate I've published a patch mod for my Animation Fix mod and your mod (and the other portrait border mods) as both needed to mod the portraits.gui

Animation Fix + Title-Ranked Portrait Borders Patch
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2776941154

It didn't need an update. Please try running the game before asking for updates.

All I did was change the version number in the descriptor

@LLucas182
Update plz for 1.5.1
I dont wanna use the fking vanilla Colored Titles Portrait Borders of Paradox Interactive

It's still working. I use it

Can you make text color like "Colored Tiers (Titles)" mod?
I think "Colored Tiers (Titles)" mod doesn't update anymore

Updated descriptor to 1.5.*
No other changes necessary

No update required for 1.5+

@Attila the Hun

I cant say for sure. You'd have to test it. It's a graphical mod with some code to it. But that code's from MacAwesome's mod.

Try it out

Is this mod compatible with non-English languages?

No real update. Just a change to the mod's descriptor so it doesn't give people a version mismatch warning in 1.3+

Thanks for all your help, I am going to stay with your mod. That psd file doesn't open up right in Gimp, the RGB is way off on import. I am not good with all this stuff anyways, and Photoshop seems better.

This mod is still good even without Karax's Title Color mod. Maybe someday you will try another color version, without Karax's mod in mind.

Well, if you just wanna change colors, thats fairly easy. Do you know a little photoshop?

I can send u my source file and you can change whatever you want

Closer look:

I am wondering if you can do a different version of this, recolored in the spirit of CK2. The Empire and King are fine, but the Duke, Count and Baron recolored in that tradition. I think Duke was Silver like you have it but have the purple corners. I think Count was dull metal grey color and bright white colors.

Modder SSOOO did a cool color spread:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2246687954

I like his color spread he did in that mod, but I am not a fan of the design he did, plus it is Achievement friendly, so crowns are behind, which kind of bothered me.

I think if you did a version that had tradition color spread or even use SSOOO color for reference, it would be really nice. Would be really nice for players who love these borders but don't use Karax's Title Color mod.

Honestly at some point the devs have to add in their portrait borders.

Thanks.

You know what would even work better if a mod could change the parchment color, make it on the brown side. I really do not know what real life parchment looked like in those ages, I think it was a darker color, like a brownish color.

If the mod allow text to have a thin border of black and inside have the color, it could work. But I think there is limitations that can be done in game.

Yeah here is what I was talking about:

The color is fine in the other screens. Too bad the mod couldn't disable the color change on parchment.

Alright, thank you kindly !

@Royal Raven you're welcome glad you enjoy it.

@Sai it's a texture mod. Shouldn't need one.

Any news on the update ? Thanks and keep the awesome work !

It is fine on like most screens but when you get those pop-ups with like the lighter parchment, that yellow is super bright, where I can not make out title.

Yeah I saw I can tweak the color, I might do that some day. Honestly I am fine without that mod, your mod is the important one to me. Thanks for it.

@Royal Raven interesting. The yellow has been fine for me thus far. Maybe its the brightness? Anyway, I believe you can change the color in karax's mod

I love this one. I use to use Title-Ranked Portrait Borders, but I find yours easier to know difference between Count, Mayors and Dukes, with the corner colors. I however do not use Karax's Title Color mod with it. I find some of the colors hard to read on parchments, like the yellows.

Yes it is. It's just a texture mod.

Is this compatible with save games?

Nice :D

Nice! I ended up doing the same thing! :)
