And digging a canal is not art.

I spent years without any proper family portrait. Now I finally have something reasonable thanks to that. If more people complain about it, I can remove them, but for now, I will let it stay.
Also, I will leave you with a story from Milton Friedman:
Milton recalled traveling to an Asian country in the 1960s and visiting a worksite where a new canal was being built. He was shocked to see that, instead of modern tractors and earth movers, the workers had shovels. He asked why there were so few machines. The government bureaucrat explained: “You don’t understand. This is a jobs program.” To which Milton replied: “Oh, I thought you were trying to build a canal. If it’s jobs you want, then you should give these workers spoons, not shovels.”

AI should never be used for art, leave that to people. Unsubscribed.

I'm sorry that you dislike the added family portraits, Rhalius. I think they look way better than the previous option and make family trees look more alive.

@Rhalius

Actually this is a perfect use case for AI. No one cares or expects every portrait of a minor character to be a masterwork, yet the nature of the game requires there to be a ton of different portraits, or else there would be too many duplicates. AI can churn out a ton of "okay" quality portraits, and I think it's far better to have a ton of those, rather than just a handful of handmade portraits.

There was no need to add AI garbage to a perfectly fine portrait pack.

DEI is for Rome II, this is for Rome Remastered, so no.

Hello friend, is this wonderful mod compatible with DEI?

Thanks guys!

I can't lie, this is so fancy. Great job, keep it up!

These all look amazing. Great work!

Don't worry, these portraits just change the UI which is always savegame compatible :)

@Lusitanio OK thanks, I'll activate this next time i fire up RIS and see if it still works with it, worked fine in v0.5 . Thanks for your great work. 👍

Hey Iceni!
These portraits are not in the RIS 0.6 nor will they ever be there.

@Lusitanio Have any or all of these portraits made it into RTR/RIS V0.6

Thanks John!

Love this mod!

Just in case you want to support my work, you can do it here: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/lusitanio

Yep no problems running this mod. The portraits look brilliant 👍

If any of you have portrait skills or has done some, I could add them to this mod!

Yes, portrait updates are related with the user interface, they are always save compatible :)

Yep update i've been using it with RTR/RIS for about 2 months no problem. Looks like the mod updated today 17th April hopefully save compatible 🙏

Yes, it's fully compatible with the RIS mod. I'm only playing that mod actually.

So has anyone tried this with RIS mod ? Compatible ?

Nothing much. Just added a few new portraits

what was the update??

awesome!

You're welcome! Enjoy!

Awesome mod thx bro!

Thanks for the tip, antonio! I uploaded a few images. I will upload more of other factions like Rome and the Hellenistic factions

Can you upload some screenshots of the portraits in-game?

I gave up at the dead faces as well ahah The Greek portraits have completely different dead portraits. But if you want to share, I can include it in this submod too!

they always had to be lined up just right in every folder...i gave up at the dead faces lol.

Hi yeah i realise that...iv done some faces stuff for the original rome an mtw2,
its insane work...the numbers ...the folders,

yes hope to see it on RIS...i will try to see if it works on RIS {it should} although mabey some culture differences etc...i will check.

It did't took hours, it took months from me and all the other modders and artists. This was initially a submod for EBII.
I still have more portraits for the Iberian factions so I might make this mod only for RIS which will allow unique portraits per faction.

looks the part

Brilliant! thanks for your hard work...it must have took hours...appreciated,
really brings the game to life for role playing.

Thanks!

This is great. Nice job!!
