It's in the HIP installation. If you only want that though type no on everything else and yes on CPR.

Not sure if asked already but is there a reason why landed nobles don't wear helmets when leading armies? It would really help with in game immersion if they did.
In my opinion this is hands down the best portrait/culture mod out there but would really be even better if helms were present as they are in BLG.

Could something be done about those Persian imperial hats? They are so friggingly ugly! Anything would be better than that. A turban or something. Hell, I'd even be fine with it being replaced by rapper's hat! Anything but the current thing. I don't even know what to call it...!
Sorry for the late reply - anyways I found the bug, it does seem in a few versions of CPR the code wasn't referencing the Ethiopian portraits. If you want to fix it yourself, just go to "mod/HIP/common/cultures" and open up "00_cultures.txt". Find the part that lists the ethiopian and nubian cultures, and rename "graphical_culture = africangfx" to "graphical_culture = ethiopiangfx"
Never thought about it. I'll see if I can do something like that for the next version.
Crak'd, who made the Persian portraits, does very thorough research when it comes to his portrait sets (akin to SWMH when it comes to map accuracy), so I trust that it is as historically accurate as he could make it. That said, though, either way, I try to avoid messing around with vanilla art directly as much as I can.
We have talked about it in the past you little liar...:rofl:
Now seriously please make it happen if you can...

We did?
Maybe we did.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Anyways, I'll ask Nendur if I can borrow his bit of code from BLG and port it to CPR.
Could Persian portrait elements be used in Greek portraits? They sort of look Greek to me lol.
It will be better than the dreadful Med. portraits...
Though we don't look like these portraits anyway...
Not the base Persian portraits per se, but I could see if the hair/clothes/whatever fit well enough and to my liking.
Yeah, they could be accurate for Zoroastrians. But a Seljuk muslim with such a hat, seems weird to me. They look too pagan (and ugly...) for a muslim ruler to wear.
Help me out: what's BLG again?
The Turks currently use the Turkish portrait set, as they do in vanilla, so they wouldn't be wearing Persian clothing unless, well, they become Persian. Historically, even during CKII's timeframe, even Persian Muslims tried to keep aspects of their culture separate from the Arabs - the Persians who revolted against Abbasid rule, such as the Saffarids and the Samanids, for instance, tried emulating the Sassanids. For more local rulers, and those in more isolated regions, such as eastern Iran or Daylam/Azerbaijian, such attitudes would be even stronger. So it's not entirely unreasonable for Persian Muslims to be dressing in Persian-esque clothing.
Nevermind that, fixed it. My game wouldn't update the Turkish portraits for whatever reason, which would fix them
