Better Portrait Borders (Ironman)

Better Portrait Borders is a Ironman and Achievement compatible mod, that aims to improve the user experience and make characters titles easier to spot.

The hats and crowns are on top of the borders, but the border is transparent to show the hats, and not have the border intersect with the hats. If you want a mod where the borders are uninterrupted, it shouln't be Ironman compatible, and there should already be a mod for that.

This is my first mod, so it's probably far from perfect. It was mostly made just as practise and to remedy the hat issue.

Update 08/2022: Fixed descriptor to accept all game versions. Technically old game versions will not work (pre 1.5.1) but unless paradox makes new changes in portraits, this should work forever, and now the mod will never be marked as outdated. No changes has been made to the mod itself as it is working without any issues when I tested.

Update:
With update 1.5.1. portrait ranks were changed and hats are now cut out. For now I have chosen not to remove the transparency in the portrait top border.

Update 0.5
-Compatibility upgrade with update 1.5.1
-Minor changes in lights and shadows
--Colours appear less washed out due to this
-Marked compatible with 1.5.1, should be compatible with following updates, unless Paradox makes changes to the portrait ranks again.

Update 0.4
-Added ribbons to: Ducal & Empire titles.
-Changed Empire border to gold.

Ribbons for Ducal titles was mostly to make it easier to distinguish from Counts.
