@Akashugo

For paragon yes, aiming to make 1-2 per month but not all of them are designed yet

also yes, It works without Giga.

sry i forgot to ask, this mod works without gigastructure engineering mod? i jsut wanted the enclaves and the other vanilla things. im not big fan of gigas, ngl.

Mostly i wanted Bubbles, overall.

may i ask, any plan for Paragons?
some "old" mod that changed paragons to anime style is broken rn, sadly.

Update 14/2/25

Minor fix
-misplaced Shroud Walker room

Update 14/2

New
-Disco moon
-Q'la Minder
-Barbershop system (Alpha)

Rework
-Beholder (add barbershop support)
-Nameless Apostate (add barbershop support)

Fix
-Update Shader
-Rewrite Species class (lithoid+synth now using vanilla species class)

Tried it, seems to have reduced the lag period from 2 seconds to like... 1.5 seconds? Dunno, could just be placebo honestly.

@Lixix

Try using Merger of Rules patch

It doesn't happen when only it is on, I tested that too. Forgot to mention, all of my other mods work fine with Gigacolle as well. At the time of writing my last comment, it was loaded higher (31, with ACOT being 42). Loading it below ACOT (44) fixes the portraits, but lag when selecting portraits still happens.
Ofcourse, this comment might be redundant but still felt like mentioning it just incase.
Cheers.

@Lixix OK I check it I forgot to update the shader file, will update by friday but can't guarantee have zero problem as I use the same file as Giga but ACOT seemingly have it's own shader I have to look if there's a compatibility version or not

@Lixix I check ACOT file, it doesn't modified any of extra dimension portrait. is it still happened when only Colle is on? Also is colle load before or after ACOT? Colle have a modified shader file and should be load later

The mod Ancient Cache of Technologies ( https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1419304439 ) seems to be conflicting with this one, causing the Vehement, Aberrant and one of the Bio portraits to disappear in character creator. It also causes selecting any portrait to lag the hell out of the game for two seconds. I've disabled everything else except these two and it happens, so I am sure it's conflicting somehow but frankly I got no clue how.

@derega16
Understood. Thank you for the reply!

@Cathelia Samicora

For ColleLit I forgot them in "common\species_names\colle_name" I put ColleSyn twice and forgot to change the last to lithoid

ColleBot is unused, it's does nothing, it doesn't have any portrait assign to

@derega16
Besides, the "ColleBot" species classes are not in the file "common\species_names\colle_name" too, it might has the same randomly generated species name missing bug.

@derega16
Report a suspicious bug about randomly generated species name missing: the portrait of "Prikkiki-Ti" is generated as a random species in my savefile, but it has no species name, just blank name. I have noticed that it is generated as "ColleLit" species category, but when I search the file "common\species_names\colle_name", I didn't found code about "ColleLit". Was this just the reason that why ColleLit might missing its randomly generated species name?

Time to play Stellaris again

Sadge. Though a static portrait would still be cool.

@Seth the Wyvern Maid

The game don't support that, it static image only

Is it possible to make it so the portraits apear in the Mega/Gigastructures details panel?

@Idunno

It's temporally, turns out they rewrote those 2 entire spawn code it might have other problems with the fix.

Everything is fixed! Thank you very much.

@Idunno

After a rough check I think I fond a typo in those code, but I don't have a time to test the fix currently.

It is probably on my side after all

It could be that problem is on my side or due to some kind of bug with the DLC in general. I tried to test Ketling starpack however "distar.232" does not create Ketling pops for me. I tried to make them appear without console in game by spawning only my empire alone and they did not spawn regardless. This problem happens to me in vanilla too.

For some reason Prikki-Ti do not have mod portrait. Tested it twice by guaranteeing Gish to spawn and releasing them. All other portraits work as intended.

Update tomorrow, for the planned only Apostle is finished, Zadigal and Cetana not yet. Zediagal will update later this month first

Playable crisis portrait have been restored successfully. Missing non-player empire name issue should be fixed

@derega16 Thank you for the reply.

@Cathelia Samicora Thank for notice me, the game update broke it and I forgot to check that one, They supposed to use the humanoid name list

@derega16
A weird problem: since we cannot disable random spawn while still keep them available for pre-made AI empires (just according to your description in "Gigacolle no random spawn" patch), can you update the localization to give the non-NPC portraits some pre-designed default species name? Because without pre-designed default name, when the game generate these portraits as random ones, the names of generated species will be completely blank at all...

Yeah the crisis ones.

@ L0NEW0LF

Crisis? depends on can I finish the next batch on time or not

Are you able to get them in before the next stellaris dlc patch/update? Just wondering since i'm tryna get all mods in my mod list fixed up b4 then. I do like most the portraits on this but my friend doesn't lol.

@Lonewolf, I moved Sophia there, the spiecies class is still ACOTlane but it moved to merged witj the rest of colle in creation screen

And for Crisis look like i forgot to add them

...Well I must correct myself again, the crisis ones are the only ones that don't show up, Sophia shows up in the 3 gigacolle tabs.

I say modify but it is really just adding different pop categories when it comes to empire creation screen.

I seem to have an issue, the crisis portraits and ACOTLane don't show up in empire creation screen. This might be because of a compat issue, the only mods I have that modify potrait menu are darkspace, spectrals, avali species and YAAP void inspired species.

@ Air Canada

I've considered that, but it's only possible for NPC/Crisis replacer stuff. but have to modified some codes.

The game won't allow anything that touch the common or events folders. Which there's no way adding a new portrait without touching those.

Another way is to hard replace vanilla portraits, that I don't want to do that

(not including the gigastructures content obv, but one that has the base game ones and you can earn achievements?)

is there a ironman compatible version?

@Astraeides

That will make the coding far too complicated, it's possible if it's a static portrait but infeasible animated one.

@Aki Zeta-9

Can do that, but that feature is kinda on and off few game update. I what to make sure that function is quite freeze first. This mod came out long before a mod is allowed to use a vanilla species class without overwrite it. If the next main version come out and the game still allow to do that I might change to just use vanilla species class

can we get an option to play with all of these portraits as a player empire from the start? as it stands now, we can only play as one portrait at a time.

Shroudwalkers are so good praise Derega

Can you please use vanilla species classes? For better compatibility.

Update 4/8/24

NEW
-3 Shroud Walker Portraits (1 male 2 female)
-Custom backdrop for Beholder

FIX
-Rewrite to fit the new portrait structure
-Fix Paragon with wrong name

page is wrong now. the pyramid is vanilla, and the bule bird is mod's pyramid

WHY?!

hell yeah

As Giga updated the update should be done in few days.

@KairaScarlett

Gigacolle is dependent on TTFTCUT's shader, when that's not updated I can't do anything. Update including the next batch of portraits (finished version of Beholder and 3 Shroud walkers portraits) are put on hold right now. I try to ask them if I can get the file early but I don't get it yet. You can use that fix patch. At worse I have wait until Giga update, I might apply the temporary patch if it take too long

@DatDude343

Portrait and Replaced some NPC portraits
