quick question - replacing family portraits and cards

[Hans Kloss]

I'm sure that has already been discussed before but is replacing possible at all ?
I have xpacked PAK files,moved then to UI folder, overwritten old (while keeping the same numbers) ones but game still shows me original cards and portraits

any ideas ?

Delete the pak file (if you've moved all unpacked files to your date folder).

OOOOPsss...CTD on campaign's starts after that ~:)

[Hans Kloss]

OK...I guess it was just a ui_0 that needed to be deleted.I did that..and I still get the old portraits showing up although I have replaced them with new ones ...

utterly ~:confused:

Finally got it working - it was ui_0.pak only that needs to be deleted.Some portraits are very similar and I was replacing wrong ones

One thing I noticed when unpacking...the batch file with the unpack program DOESN'T INCLUDE THE PATCH PAK FILE!

You need to manually edit/creatde a new batch file and extract that one as well. There were a couple of files in there which were updates of old files in other pak files. A bit of care was needed!!!!

Once you unpack that file, you can delete ( or rename ) all the PAK files

Deleting (or renaming) ui_0.pak causes R:TW not to boot up.

How does one extract the patch pak file if it is not included in the original XPAK extraction process? Is there an XPAK update for 1.2?

I have not been able to get any moved/new portraits to work whatsoever.

[Dol Guldur]

Have any mods succesfully implemented portraits for the Carthaginians?

I would have thought this something solved long ago.

I've been through all the threads; and yes, I unpacked the 1.2 patch pak as well.

Nothing seems to work. It never changes.
