    I think options, graphics, "sprite outlines" is what you're looking for.

    tried it it doesnt work, theres still a weird green box around them and some are invisible for some reason. but thx mate

    Hmm. You are referring to the in-game models. Paperdolls are the character you see in the inventory tab. You should actually uncheck Sprite outlines, and then restart the game before it makes changes to the game.

    i already restarted the game, and disabled the sprite outlines. it seems it doesnt solve the problem :)

    Well that looks like a bug or something. Do you have any mods? Do you play the game on steam? If you don't use mods and play on steam you can varify the integrity cache. It will recreate all the missing and corrupt files.

    i have no mods installed, and yes it runs on steam but there are no missing files already tried that.

    Alright. Do this.

    Open the run box, (Windows key + R) Type in dxdiag. Wait for the popup windows to finish loading. Then save all data as a text file and paste it here. It could be related to your system specs.

    Those look like vanilla BG2 sprites... which the EE doesn't use so it must have been modded... try deleting your override folder (or look for the specific xxxxINV.bam files and delete those)

    just to clarify i want the vanilla bg2 paperdolls, i already took the old .bam and .plt files in the override folder. the screenshots show you what happened. normally i dont have the green boxes around my characters.

    Maybe you could try this mod from @lunar :smirk:
  • BlackFlagBlackFlag Member Posts: 8
    that are the same files i use, just checked it. but thanks worth a try ;)
  • GodGod Member Posts: 1,150
    Oh, I see.
    I don't have an installation of BG2:EE to check this out but it looks as though the most recent versions might be using a different transparency colour for the inventory sprites. Or perhaps another engine alteration took place, such that rendered these older files incompatible. Or some stuff's bugged, who knows...

    Maybe @elminster? :smirk:

    The custom paperdolls you use are no compatible with the latest update. Go to the website you got them from and check if there is a new version.
