@Siqii No, the game doesn't support that yet. You'll have to flip each of the frames in an image editor.

Is there a way to flip the portraits? (sorry if you answered this before)

@ResentidoSocial To hide the backdrop, set the 'PortraitId' key to 'CustomCounterpartNative' in your portrait.json file. This loads a character which doesn't have a backdrop by default. Your sprites will appear offset, so either use 'OffsetX' and 'OffsetY' to move it back into place or change your images.

However, the game currently has a bug which causes an infinite loading screen when both characters load the same 'PortraitId', so this only works for one portrait at a time. You could run into this while playing any songs from the 10th Anniversary Update, Miku DLC, or Hololive DLC (and probably all future DLCs), since they use 'CustomCounterpartNative' in their counterpart portraits. This bug isn't caused by the mod (you can encounter it on custom levels with no mods installed), but I might try to add a bugfix for it in a future version if the devs don't fix it.

As for the change in the frames, I think that was just a mistake from the devs and not an intentional choice 😅.

@96 LB I checked the experimental portrait settings, and i was able to properly adjust my custom char, even make a custom backdrop (but it needs to be same or bigger than the base one and be part of all frames), but still is not as tedious as you mentioned.

A mod to either disable the backdrop, or use a custom image could be a nice addition.

Also reading the rest of the guide, the custom portraits resting in the last frame explains with my custom chars where slightly off-beat with the official support, weird choice from the devs (or that's how the base chars works?).

@ResentidoSocial Custom hero portraits use Cadence's mask by default, but you can disable this using a 'portrait.json' file if you want to have more control over which parts of the sprite are hidden (warning: this can be tedious). Check out the 'Experimental Portrait Settings' section of the guide linked in the description for more info!

@96 LB just did a quick test and works great so far, I tried a custom char using the Character Override and it worked in the base tracks. But it seems that is still affected by Cadence dimensions in the base tracks. So can't fully use the bottom right and right of the area if the character is wider.

Sounds fire! Gotta try the new version soon!

I've just released a new version of the mod! Since the game now officially supports custom portraits on custom levels, I've overhauled the mod to focus on globally replacing portraits for specific characters and/or levels. There's also some quick toggle options to use Crypt Cadence, Crypt NecroDancer, or Burger NecroDancer everywhere, and to prevent Beastmaster/Coda/Shopkeeper from overriding portraits in Practice/Remix/Shopkeeper mode.

@ResentidoSocial @Wilhelm The changes are in line with some suggestions you gave a few months ago. Let me know if this helps!

Oh nvm

To uninstall do i just delete the BepInEx file?

o7

PSA: With the new update, this mod will crash and cause you to get stuck on the loading screen. Everyone should uninstall the mod by deleting the dll or even the entire BepInEx folder. Now that custom portraits are in the base game, the mod is no longer needed (but I might come back to this and add more features later). Thanks to everyone for all your support!

great job

The devs have said that custom portraits will be in the next patch :)

@crushedbug The devs have stated that thanks to the examples seen online, they've decided to put more of an emphasis on making this more viable for the base game in the future.

Amazing mod. I think this should have been a base feature of the game.

COOL!!!

amazing mod! so good it should be an in-game feature

Can't wait for more people to start using this

Thanks for the help, it's working now. I accidentally skimmed the instructions and had neglected to put it in the plugins folder. Whoops. All good now though!

@luckymax5, there isn't actually supposed to be an original copy of winhttp.dll in the folder - the earlier version of the README contained an error. As long as you put the new winhttp.dll next to your Rift executable, it should work.

luckymax5 , did you download BepInEx? (It's in the instructions), the necessary fires are there, including winhttp.

Great mod! I would use it in my charts, but I’m having the same problem someone said in the video’s comment section.

I’m playing it on Windows 10 and also don’t have a winhttp file to replace in the files. Anyone have any idea why?

Yeeesss !

My custom now supports this mod

thanks for the answer

Meaning, everyone will get to enjoy it, people with the mod get a plus.

Yeah, people without the mod get to see the picked character in level editor and people with the mod installed get to see the custom stuff.

Hi. I would like to add characters to my maps. But have one question — can I add custom portraits without changing the character on the original map for people without mod? If so, that's awesome

Sure, I'll see if I can work global portraits into a future version! The best place for feature requests (and bug reports) is on GitHub - if you open an issue there, it'll help me keep track of what to work on.

Just tested it and works great, any chance to make a global version?, so I can have a custom portrait that has priority over any other base character or portrait from custom songs?.

oh fuck yeah!! i was thinking about this just a couple days ago that it would be nice if we had more options in the editor when it comes to selecting the visuals, i'd love to have an option to have a main character that isn't cadence, and an option to change the background without having to select the appropriate character for it, and actually, disabling the second portrait to leave just the main character would be fitting for certain songs too.. so many ideas!

hope the devs see this and support it officially!!!!!

YO, this is HUGEEEE!!
