Character Portraits.

[Atheist Peace]

Can the portraits for the characters be changed on a faction specific basis or must they be done by cultures?

[militiaman]

They're hard-coded to cultures.

Thats what i thought, too bad though. Thanks militiaman.

And the Carthage culture has no portraits of its own but draws on the Eastern culture's portraits.

When swapping, deleting or editing portraits there is a very great task ahead of us poor modders because you have (in the case of generals for example) not only to change the young general portraits but also the old general portraits, the dead general protraits and then all their card counterparts - and that is without even touching civilians & rogues!

All these files are named the same (000,001 etc). Is there a file tool to synchronize this work?

For example, let's say I wanted to remove images 002,005 and 023 from the roman young generals - is there a tool that will allow me to remove those same filenames from all the folders simultaneously or add new ones in the same manner?

There is no tool to perform such task.You might like to have a look at those two portraits threads:
