Static portraits I used for tsongo's A Fairy Tale Campaign. Don't like guessing which barkskinned character is which in the standard portraits, got to keep the immersion flowing here.
Tsongo,
Don't be limited to NWN2 and just 4 pages of portraits either, there are 233 pages for NWN with some collections numbering in the hundreds not even counting the fact that there must be 5 sizes for each portrait. I even have one there of 53 human women for playing Valines "A Dance with Rogues". Most NWN portraits can be converted, I have and many already have been, for NWN2 as long as the head is not too small in the largest size. On the other hand you made Serene look so good to start with that I could not find her equal anywhere and just enjoyed her as she was, so thanks again for making NWN2 modules and keep up the good work.

ralebeau.. I just saw them, thank you and well done. I was looking through all the portraits the other day and I downloaded a whole load of them I don't think any of my PC's know who they are now as I keep swapping them around. They're a really good feature of NWN2 and so easy to swap I can't see me going back to the old character portraits now.
As for the next mod it's a looooong way off I've nearly done the 3rd module but I think it's going to be big so I'm nowhere near half way yet. I look at it as a bit like knitting a scarf ( not that I know about that but I've seen my Nan ) it's going to have me adding to it as I go along and it will grow wider and longer until I decide it's long and fat enough or run out of ideas for the characters.
tsongo,
Didn't see what I needed to do on the original upload page, but got there after seeing the portraits page itself. Had to add some pictures to the .jpg collage so as to fit nexus' widscreen format with less stress. I can't wait to see if I can find some good matches for the new story, or to play it.

ralebeau.. I tried to add the pictures straight from the download to my mod's pictures but they were the wrong type so I looked at the picture on this page and copied it to my pc then stuck that one on no problem. Does your file have anything showing up about images ( any image related tab to click ) ?

ralebeau.. I've added a note about them in the description. What you have to do for the image is when you're looking at the file go to edit attributes then images then add images and fill in the boxes just use the browse feature to hunt down the file on your pc double click it and submit.
Once again many thanks for this it's much appreciated.
ps. Keep a look out for a sexy looking short black haired half asian witch/sorceress with light eyes I'll be needing one in the future ( not the witch I mean the portrait ) but that's quite a long way off.
tsongo,
Sent them to the nexus, don't see how to add the screenshot, will see if the collection gets to stay.

ralebeau.. Just thought I'd let you know there's a Neverwinter Nexus just started and it would be nice to have these on it as I don't know how to link or anything like that because it's a separate website. Check it out and move your stuff over if you want I don't think there are any portraits up there yet you could become the portrait guru or something like that.
TikiHat,
I forget which patch brought in the portrait swap, but it sure made life easier than running a GFF editor on a game save file. I disliked the barkskin etc. look so much that I would just make printscreen static portraits for even my OC companions before all the good NWN2 portraits started to show up in time for all these good vault modules.

I'm echoing Tsongo's vote for the same reason. I had absolutely no idea this was so easy. Thanks both to you and Sirchet!
tsongo,
You're right, I did skip over the horse, not having anything in my collection that would fit. Even with barkskin though the horse is pretty destinctive, both avatar and portrait, but if another good one comes up I can add it later. The dwarf portrait may be the weakest of the set, as I didn't have many choices there either, so the same goes for him if a better one is found somewhere.

sirchet.. Thank you, I had no idea it was so simple ( let's face it not many things are involving changing stuff ) but that works really well and certainly saves confusion. No horse shot though.
ralebeau.. We'll have to link this, put some instructions for people like me to install it and explain how to make a link and we're in business. I will now endorse your work and thank you, and before anybody says anything about my vote this is "genuinely groundbreaking" to me as nobody's ever done that before.

Hello, I really like these especially Fern but I always did have a soft spot for her, but how did you put them into the game ? If you put instructions on the entry then we might be able to link it somehow and save me the adjustments but give players the option to install them. Thank you for taking time to do this and I hope we can get them up and running.
