When are they going to fix the portrait import problem?

[Vaatihastur]

Really disappointed about this not working. What were they thinking?


Are there any EASY solutions to this for now?

What is the portrait import problem, exactly? I've imported a portrait without any issues whatsoever.

I don't know if it is the same one as I had.

Not all the portraits from BGEE can be imported into BG2EE. So you'll end up with a blank portrait, despite the fact that you simply used what was offered from Overhaul Games.

I created a character in BGEE that I took through the entire game. I chose a portrait that exists in BGEE, but when I imported that character to BG2EE, I found out that because that portrait doesn't exist in BG2EE, I had the blank one instead. I added NOTHING to the game at all.

You'd think that Overhaul could at least make the parts work between their own pieces of work.

The bonus protraits in BGEE and BG2EE aren't the same, so if you choose one of the 6 or so new portraits in BGEE, you won't get them in BG2EE... If you can find copies of the portraits and put them into the correct folder, prolly the overwrite folder, as you would for changing NPC portraits, using the correct name, you may be able to get the portrait back, but I failed finding them myself, and wouldn't know what to name them even if I could find em.

Yeah, I looked too. In the end, I had to rechoose something else entirely.
