Missing portraits?

DregothofTyr

Does anyone know what happened to the extra portraits that used to be part of BG2? I see the BG:EE extra portraits and the new SoD portraits, but the three male and three female portraits that came with BG2:EE portrait pack are now missing. Will they be restoring them with an upcoming patch? P.S. has anyone noticed a number of UI bugs across the games, such as the load game button sounding like it clicks twice or not being able to hit cancel after selecting quit game?

Weren't those the Jason Marsden or somebody bonus portraits? It showed as a free dlc before..

Think these were it right? And were removed..

BillyYank

Those are by Kieren Yanner. The portraits are included in the BGII game, but they aren't in the portraits table. I made a post about it here: https://forums.beamdog.com/discussion/comment/781140/#Comment_781140

DregothofTyr

Yep, that's them. Was it an accident or did they remove them on purpose? I rather like them...

smeagolheart

Presumably an accident since they are still included with the game files.

Perhaps a bug report is in order..

Yep @lefreut

So @DregothofTyr it is an identified issue.

DregothofTyr

Oh, okay. Well that's good. Were we also getting new portraits from the road to... contests or were those already included?

BillyYank

Those haven't been released yet.

DregothofTyr

Oh ok, thanks!

What's this about unreleased portraits?

It was from the Road to 2.0 thread. I believe we earned two custom portraits there. Actually it should be three if I read this correctly. 1 portrait from the hero of a thousand faces submissions and 2 from the selfies submissions.

@BillYank I saw your post, but I can't find BGEE.lua in the file structure, how do I find this file to make these changes?

Any updates on the schedule for the release of spoils from this? Just curious. (copy paste from p24 https://forums.beamdog.com/discussion/48346/the-roadmap-to-v2-0-11-milestones-cleared/p24)

@DregothofTyr You need to extract it to the override folder with Near Infinity.

They're getting done, but like most things they need to be approved before we can post them. Some really nice portraits, though; and I read the bio for the pregen, too; I think people will be pleased.
