Hi, I have a simple question. Have you noticed that the pops that display in-game and during the portrait selection screen are basically all copies of each other. By that I mean all pops in-game, excluding leaders, use the same phenotype, hair, colour, gender etc. They are all clones of each other. If you are aware of the problem, would you know a of a way to fix for it? Thx

I suppose one could simply duplicate the portrait groups (I put them all into one handy file) and rename them to overwrite the vanilla ones. In that case, you would have duplicate portraits, unless you also overwrote the categories file with a blank one.

I won't stop anyone from making such a patch, I'll even add it to the load order discussion page once I've verified it works. :)

The only caveat is that versions should also be made to cover the other chest size submods, as those replace the same thing.

Thank you for all your work keeping this mod alive over the years. My only request would be to have a optional separate patch to have it overwrite vanilla files, at the very least for humans. I understand that this was avoided to ensure the mod keeps working through updates but this would help getting this to work with other mods I am running. But even if you have no interest in this, thank you again for your work and have a good day.

AAAAAA I can't believe the fix was so simple and I missed it >.< The vanilla asset selectors being broken too completely threw me off. I thought that if they weren't working, there was just no way to get it to work.

Thank you for figuring out!

no response, but someone figured out what needed fixing, just that the vanilla portrait code also needs the same fix.

This and other updated portrait mods have already been updated with the fix.

Thanks for all your work on this mod series.

Did you ever get a response as to whether pop groups only using uniform, default portraits was intended or a bug? I've been wondering the same since I became aware of the behavior. IMO, it would be a weird decision if it were intended.

see generate_clothes.sh

What does \t[0-5]\ refer to in the build paths?

I made these scripts to make alterations/updates easy for myself (updating to 4.0 involved editing 2 templates and running the scripts instead of manually updating 110 selectors). Hopefully, you can figure out that the block labelled SPIRITUALIST_SPECIALIST has a bunch of textures used for spiritualist specialists and do what you need.

Textures are found in the (this) main mod or the asset repack.

run.sh, unsurprisingly, runs the whole thing.

The build scripts are the ones that do a mass find/replace on the templates with lists of textures. This is where you would change clothing. Just add/remove/alter the textures listed in the blocks.

You could alter the templates too, but you do have to know what you're doing.

As of 4.0, many of the blocks in the clothing selector scripts are now unused, since the job checking trigger has been removed from the game.

Defaults are specified in generate_clothes.sh. They also include a comment block explaining how the codes for the textures are set up.

Hi :) I love the mod! Would you be able to provide just a little extra context for how to use the script tools? I feel very lost.

Where do I find the portrait dds files? My "gfx/models/portraits" directory doesn't have the folders for soft or plus. Perhaps this is something to do with the way mods are installed on Steam that I'm not understanding? The clothes appear ingame. I think I need to know the appropriate filenames to know what modifications to make to the scripts.

Would I run the "build_female_clothes_sb_master.sh" script or the main directory's "run.sh" script? I'm not sure what the next step would be either, but perhaps that would become more clear after running the script..

I'm mainly hoping to just choose different clothes as the defaults. Also, would it be within the script selector that I could delete outfits?

If the info is available somewhere else, I apologize. I would be appreciative of any help in this matter, though, if you are willing. Thanks!!

For anybody who may be wondering about how to get this mod working— Just subscribe to this mod and its requirements. In your playlist, make sure they are in this order:

1. SE Asset Repackage
2. Portrait Trigger Package
3. SE Restyled

Thanks for your efforts Droid!

See discussion page for a list of mods that go with this.

This is designed to be configurable, so everyone can use the settings they want. Yes, that means not accidentally nuking other mods. As a portrait mod (and nothing but) at worst you'll get the wrong hair and clothing if set up wrong.

If you want nipslips you'll have to set it up that way since not everyone likes them.

btw- for those of who are not experts/bright and are hesitant to use pre-reqs - is there a sort of "All in one/everything"? where it's a one and done mod?

I just want as many options/everything without fear that I've hosed my game,.

why is nipslip a bad thing? I love this idea but am curious why other races may have modesty/reepression - I feel like many should have a unclothed version

Updated for 4.0

The removal of job checking in the game means having to redesign the checks.

Rulers now generally dress per politician job swaps, specialists dress per ethics, fallen empires and primitives are less granular.

There is a known issue with Ethics & Civics: Bug Branch causing pop groups phenotypes to be set to defaults, but not hair or clothing, they will have appropriate clothing and hair for their phenotype. This is strange since the checking is the same...

never mind i forgot the pre-mod

Male and female img is not separated,when only a single gender is selected the other gender will still be displayed

A quick check shows ruler/leader code still works in 4.0.

Pop groups only show defaults in planet view, regardless of choices in empire creation (even in vanilla, seeking clarification if bug or intended behaviour).

Trigger used for job checking has been removed so even if code for pops is usable again it might only be possible to check for other things like government and stratum. Will investigate once the issue with default pops is resolved.

Please report any issues with rulers/leaders in 4.0.

The log appears fine. Have you tried verifying your files?

been 4 months but here

Still running the same mod list as previous post

Thanks a lot for fixing the mod.

What happens if you change to a different vanilla portrait instead?

What I meant is: If you give both the UNE and COM the portraits from this mod, and COM keeps the Lost Colony origin from vanilla, the UNE is suddenly no longer the parent empire and a third Human empire spawns.

If you use the vanilla portraits, this will not occur. In that case only the UNE and COM will spawn with the UNE as parent empire.

No idea what you mean by that. This mod doesn't touch pregenerated empires nor origins.

@droid.with.googly.eyes I was wondering if there is away to avoid the UNE - COM lost colony origin to be broken by this mod. Or would that only work if the portraits were a replacement instead of an addition?

If you use the COM with these portraits, a third random human nation will spawn besides the UNE.

Unable to reproduce. What does your error.log look like?

unable to get this working on 3.14. Is it meant to work on 3.14? i see the asset mods say made for 3.4 in the launcher. I am using the load order recommended in the comments
Portrait Trigger Pack - Core
SE - Asset Repackage
SE - Restyled
SE - Restyled - Everything
and they are the only mods running. I have also reinstalled the mods but only the default portraits appear. Love the mod so I hope im just missing something

THANK YOU OH MY GOD. I liked the concept of the original mod but it was an outdated mess loaded with bugs and conflicting aesthetics, as well as unnecessary lewdness. This is SE Humans but good!

Yeah I have started with another game actually a more simple project for a beginner like me, thanks for the encouragement and thanks for maintaining this mod.

I would recommend screwing around with other portrait mods before tackling this one, given it's complicated enough for me to create tools to generate selectors...

I took one look at the hundred or so files in the original I would have to update by hand every time and went "nope", so here we are.

@droid.with.googly.eyes Cheers Droid, maybe i'll try to figure it out sometime, never done a mod before but thought about it so yeah. would you say that it would difficult to do for someone new?

@Skulled Mortal

1. Only way I know of is by editing the save, which can be quite painful
2. You would have to edit the hair and clothing selectors to use everything instead of checking stuff like jobs and governments. Grab the selector scripts linked in the description and gut the template to just use a copy of the block with everything at the start of the clothing selector template, for example.

Pack the results into a patch mod, feel free to upload and share with others who would also like clothes to behave that way.

Hi Droid, thanks for bringing this mod back but i've been scrawling the internet to try to figure out two things I hope you can help me with.
The first thing is, is there a mod anywhere that allows me to change the portrait of a character during a game.
If not then is there a way to randomize all of the outfits so I can enjoy unique looking characters. At the moment they only use a handful of the vast amount of options you have implemented.
Thanks again!

Requires renaming and deleting a whole bunch of things. See also previous comment about achievement friendliness.

A version of the mod that replaces instead of adds.

No. Restyled is designed to be much easier to keep updated than original SE, and one of the design decisions (using scripted triggers instead of copy/pasting the same checks everywhere) means it's not achievement friendly.

I suppose someone (not me :P) could go in the reverse direction and make one, but keeping it updated would be a nightmare. Maybe write a bunch of scripts that recreates templates but replaces the scripted triggers with inline code pulled from all the various trigger pack mods.

@droid.with.googly.eyes
Thanks for all your work.

I've tried to find an answer to this but to no avail ... Is there an Achievement friendly versioni of Restyled ?

Replacement patch?

Could you make a replacement patch?

Good catch. Fixed.

Something is bugged with humanoid 05. The male 01 is still the old vanilla elves.

Appending to categories was enabled in 3.12.3 and I updated the mod to stick the portraits back into the vanilla category.

The new patch fixed the issue with portraits than?

The checking has become more complicated. Things like traits can override the gender choice.

Is there a reason why the gender choice does not affect the portraits? Seems like you can only use phenotype to give your leader an male or female portrait

Amazing job man, thank you so much.

Okay, thanks.

Description is yet to be updated, but requires the asset repackage instead of being able to use original SE as an option.

So to clarify, with the latest update, is this now standalone? Or do we still need the requirements?
