    Just installed the DLC - the portraits look gorgeous!
    The woman with red hair and the man with the staff are my favourite ones!

    I wonder... what happens when we export character with one of those portraits to BG2?

    You can always copy the portrait files and paste them to your BG2:EE portrait folder.

    Top-left man and bottom-right woman are my favorites :)

    Every passing day that I don't have that illustrious portrait pack a dryad dies. Let your conscience be your guide...

    So I have won one of the five packages ... Due to little time I did not try to download them yet, but now I'd like to.

    I have already redeemed the steam key, so the package is "mine" on steam, and I also own the games on steam.

    Problem is: I have installed the beamdog client versions of the games, not the steam versions. Obviously I can't just download the portrait pack from steam without having installed the steam version of the game ... Any trick to get them without doing the install?

    You should really install the steam versions of the games... don't you like achievements??

    I had the same issue with the soundtracks. I'd bought them on Steam, but had the games installed via the Beamdog client (I had Steam keys from Beamdog). I contacted Steam support about how to download the soundtracks without installing the games in the Steam client. The answer from Steam was "not possible".

    If I ever have to use the Steam client again, it will be too soon...

    @BelegCuthalion It looks like there's only one option for you available - to download the game and the DLC from Steam and then copy/paste the DLC to your Beamdog game's folder.

    Okay, thanks for the confirmation, I'll do a temporary steam install to get them.

    Achievements ... Nah, not my priority, I rather play the game in-game, not on a meta level (and without the steam client), but everyone to his liking.

    @JuliusBorisov - Any word on making these available for BGEE on Beamdog/GOG?
  • JuliusBorisovJuliusBorisov Member, Administrator, Moderator, Developer Posts: 22,754
    No ETA, but we will try to combine it with 2.5.
  • KalindorKalindor Member Posts: 51
    Not to pile on, but once these are on GoG I will buy them in a heartbeat along with any other high-quality content you make for the BG series. Take my money!

    A heads up!

    The portrait pack is now available on GOG - https://www.gog.com/game/baldurs_gate_faces_of_good_and_evil

    We're still working towards getting the portrait pack type DLC to beamdog.com
