[Fingulfin]

How does it come up? Pink? Invisible? Another Unit's Portrait? Once again, please provide more information on your problem.

[Bart]

if you put the portrait in a new ini file you must put in data\ini\mappedimages\handcreated

[turbinator]

ur size of the image is 253, i think it has to be like 256 x 256, or 64 x 64 etc.

is that what it is suposed to be 2playgames

[Bart]

indeed

[turbinator]

still not working lol

[Kwen]

it doesnt have to be any certain size, the game will resize it to fit as long as the coordinates are equal, width and height, i use all different sizes and it always works

[turbinator]

thanks but that didnt help me i already knew that:(

[Kwen]

how did you make yur asset.dat?

[Bart]

this error is really weird. it doesnt have anything to do with asset.dat, it would be purple. the weird thing is that the previous image is used (is that right?)

[turbinator]

yes the previous image is used

i might have an idea why my portraits dont work could it be that i need my images to be circular if so they arent lol i would like to know how to do this

[Mathijs]

I doubt that's the problem, all the palantir art I have done so far (which is ALOT) I had square pics.
