Thank you for fixing what was quite possibly the worst change made for War of the Chosen. I am overjoyed

The current limit of 100 for the camera is bothering me a little since there's a few cosmetics that I use that tend to get out of picture, but testing with Quick Soldier Info's on tactical camera I felt like 120 for the camera fits my needs. Is there a way to increase the limit?

I've been noticing that on soldiers sent to ring missions that all the soldiers default back to their original unmodded appearance if I check on them in the barracks is there a place for me to set some settings so this won't happen again?

Damn shame that this conflicts with "Disable Random Posters". Xcom's weird headshots bother me, but not as much as the game forcibly creating random posters the player never asked for.

Does this work for the "too zoomed in" mugshots of TLP as well?

@∑3245 sure!

Hello I was wondering if I could integrate this mod into my Photobooth Extended mod? This mod overrides X2Photobooth.uc and I hate to leave it incompatible since I use this mod quite a bit.

FYI the mod 100% works with LWOTC. If you get black portrait after first launch with the mod activated, just go to MCM, change a mod setting (distance and/or POV) then relaunch the game. Portrait should now be fine in the Avenger.

On a closer look, I believe the following arrays are not firing, possible because they have not been defined.

m_arrSoloBLines_Male;
m_arrSoloBLines_Female;
m_arrDuoALines;
m_arrDuoBLines;
m_arrDuoBLines_Male;
m_arrDuoBLines_Female;
m_arrDuoOpLines;
m_arrSoloMemorialBLines;
m_arrSoloMemorialBLines_Male;
m_arrSoloMemorialBLines_Female;
m_arrCapturedLines;

Minor incompatibility with 'Photobooth Quotes' - when run together some duo and memorial tag lines fail to show up.

@Sunbach Go to QuickSoldierInfo setting when in tactical layer and take picture

is there anyway to force photo to appear in QuickSoldierInfo right away when a new soldier just come on a misson? because at the momment a new soldier doesnt have a photo yet and have to wait for next misson for the photo to appear

One Steam tag should be sufficient!

War of the Chosen

NOT war of the chosen!
NOT WotC!

@Alakhai
Oh. LWotC? That's probably the problem.

@Dragon32
No clue from mod description, can't do anything in MCM. I've read https://www.reddit.com/r/xcom2mods/wiki/mod_troubleshooting
and things seam to be in order. I use AML, no conflicts displayed, no ironman, no framerate smoothing, I use proper LWOC version, no dependancy of this mod (exept MCM, which i use). Ehh...
Thoe it looks nice, I guess I'll live without.

I'm not getting any pictures on Soldier List in barracks. With out this mod pictures are present, but distorted. I'm using both Extended Personel Info and Detailed Soldier List mods. Anyone has that issue? What do? :)

[quote]For some strange reason Firaxis tinkered with the way soldier portrait photos ("headshots") are shot in WOTC. The camera got moved way up close, and the FOV increased in order to compensate. The result: strangely distorted looking pictures. This mod fixes that.[/quote]

Amazing how they let this happen. Like sticking a phone right to someone's nose trying to take a formal headshot. Thanks for this mod.

I have a weird issue with my solider portraits and I'm not sure which mod or interaction of mods is causing it, but will describe the symptoms and see if anyone else has this or even better knows a fix. What I get is the portrait of female soldiers the head shape get drawn a few pixels higher than all the other parts, like armour, which results in a messed up portrait. It mostly happens when I nick there armour when fitting out other soldiers on mission setup screen. I think this is forcing a new headshot to be taken and they don't seem to line up the head and the clothing so I get a wonky image. I can fix it by going into the solider and adding something like a scar which forces a new headshot. I have tested removing the only female exclusive mods but it still happens. Also thought it could be a timing thing with my semi-potato computer, with the image being taken before the model is ready, but really don't know and can't see on a search anything like this.

@Rjakjedi UK
Not having any issues with SPARKs here, but then I wasn't having a problem in the first place. Glad you sorted it out.

Think I found the problem: It was the SHIV mod I had. No picture gets generated for the SHIVs so it puts all the phots in the headshots folder out of sync, breaking the headshots. I hope I dont have the same prob with SPARKS when I get round to making them.

Thnx, I've tried all that. I have AML. I use Steam versions of the mods so should be updated. I did the whole verify and delete config. I'm not 100% that its this mod but when I use it to customise, the pics dissapear and others have reported same issue.

@Rjakjedi UK
Works fine, check those links I posted back in March 2021.

I loved this mod but alas, I fear it may of been broken. I noticed soldiers and new resistance weren't getting photos, unless i used Quick soldier info Mod and took photos in the field. When changing the customisation of soldiers, in the armoury, I saw the files being deleted from the headshots folder in my documents.

What are the default settings for the camera? I get black screens for most headshots.

Just subscribe to it and activate it in the mod launcher, just like any other mod.

How do you use this mod?

I confirm that the mod is working fine. It helped to restore the configuration files of the game in my documents.


Tip: delete only the game files, do not touch the mods files, so as not to configure them again.

Works fine, check those links I posted.

I confirm that it does not work — black squares instead of faces.

doesn't work. own all dlc. launching it the game with the alternate launcher. deactivated all mods besides the ones you recommended. only getting either black boxes or default portraits.

Данный мод делает игру гораздо более красивой в визуальном плане.

Some great Mod Troubleshooting advice
That recommends the excellent Alternate Mod Launcher [github.com] Everyone who uses mods should be using it
As well as AML's own wiki and FAQs, this guide gives some more detailed advice on using the Alternate Mod Launcher: Troubleshooting: Mods not working properly / at all

NOW I DON'T SEE MY SODIERS, the question is why? or what can i do to repair thys?

i have this issue where the game seems to want to regenerate the headshots every time I load an avenger save. this results in super-slowdowns as it does so, and many of the photos end up blurry because the textures for modded cosmetics haven't fully loaded in yet.

Is there any way to just have headshots generate for solder new soldiers like normal, then "lock" the pics in place, or at least prevent auto-updating behavior? ive noticed that sometimes the headshots will auto-generate if i change cosmetics around for soldiers, too. The only other mod I have that might affect headshots is the mod "Extended Personnel Info," but all that mod does it display the headshots next the soldier's name in the armory.

Doesn't work for me any more, unfortunately.

shame

right i tested it and it doesn't seem to solve the problem

does this help fix (along with the missing packages for maps fix mod) the missing headshot wanted posters in the cities?

Great mod. Would be super cool if there was a way to use the selected soldier photo you created within the WOTC Nice Mission Debriefing (if it exists) as their portrait everywhere. And/or if we could set the filter and effect for the photo (I would really like them to be greyscale or noir)... and maybe use a background image from file instead of an ingame one.

Can confirm this works in WOTC and it is indeed compatible with QuickSoldierInfo.

If you install it and try to test it in the field for the first time, you won't see the changes, so just make sure you test it in the Avenger menus

The randomization background feature for the portraits is fantastic, but I wish I could manually choose the backgrounds for each person. As it stands I have to make some kind of adjustment to the character whose portrait I want changed, and then back out and see what it looks like, rinse and repeat lol

简单来说就是让你的士兵不再那么的丑陋
这个小型模组会产生视觉上更令人愉悦的士兵肖像照片。

介绍
由于某些奇怪的原因，Firaxis修改了在WOTC中拍摄士兵肖像照片（“头像”）的方式。 相机近距离移动，并且FOV增大以进行补偿。 结果：奇怪地扭曲了图片。 这个mod可以解决这个问题。

特征
可配置的FOV和距离（支持MCM！）
可配置背景
合理的默认设置
如果设置已更改，则自动更新旧照片
MCM支持（不支持）
与QuickSoldierInfo兼容（当首选此mod的头像时，必须在QSI中关闭“拍照”）

建议：如果您希望更大的爆头，请先减小FOV，然后再减小距离！

@kazuya0010:
By "squad mate characters" do you mean stuff like Krogans?

It doesn't seem to work for squad mate characters because sometimes the face always looks deformed and the head becoming bigger than the body. Is there any way to fix this problem when the characters face looks deformed and bigger than the body?

Excellent, thanks

a must have mod

It doesn't seem to work for squad mate characters because sometimes the face always looks deformed and the head becoming bigger than the body.

I started trying some different backgrounds. Now i have no headshots at all.

Anyone ever run into this?

Mod works great, haven't had any problems or conflicts with any other mod so far and I run a LOT of mods.

@Dragon32 Thank you, I'll give that a try.
