[MOD] Crackdtoothgrin's Graphical Goodies

[nitroholic]

CrackdToothGrin, would you mind if I incorporated your mod into my own project? Credit will of course be given in full.

From the front page:

Requests for integration must be handled via PM. As a rule, I won't allow integration into other mods, but I will allow the hosting of 00_graphicalculturetype.txt, portrait_properties.txt, and 00_cultures.txt so that way the portrait mod is compatible. If you would like to collaborate on said integration and such, let me know!!! This is done so that I have feedback in my own thread (as others using my work were posting problems in other threads, much to my dismay). If you have any questions, please ask!

Huh, thanks. I didn't even think to look at the OP, which was kind of dumb of me, in hindsight.

particularly the Belgians for obvious reasons.

I have to confess that my English is better than my French. Don't ask about my German.

My Flemish is hilarious, I speak it with a West Flemish (read: Redneck to most other Flemish) accent on top of the foreign one I already have...

When I was younger, I used to think Scandinavian languages were a very bad West Flemish dialect.

Back on track: I'd love to see what you'd do with the Catholics TBH!

Religious clothing would be the most feasible part of his total overhaul, because they're independent of cultures now.

Voodoo

Oh, that doesn't sound too bad. I had feared it would have something to do with vague programming languages, .dds files that don't seem to render properly, and a lot of undocumented Paradox mumbojumbo.

On the first post...

The Turkish male on the bottom, left corner looks like he should be ringing his hands together and rasping "Yeeeessssss.... yeeeeeeeessssssss...."

I don't really mind so much as long as a compatibility patch is the preferred method. I'm just against the full-on inclusion in someone else's mods, because other people have gotten the credit in the past for my work, and now have some ability to just take it from another mod and do whatever they want with it. I was running into a problem where mistakes in the mod weren't even being brought to my attention, and this caused problems.

Definitely would be the fastest one to do. I'm definitely considering it.


Other than that, I have been working on some stuff. Mostly, I'm attempting to redo facial sets. Here's an example.

Crack, did you have any plan for Magyar portraits?

I just tweaked the culture text file to give the new Altaics (Khazars, Bolghars, Avars) Pecheneg gfx. I also switched the d_pechenegs.tga to k_pechenegs, to reflect the new title. With those two changes, I think/hope that the mod should be compatible with TOG. I figure I might as well put it up here. I hope you don't mind, CrackdToothGrin

Anyway, just replace the folder of the mod package you're using with the appropriate one of these, and you should be good to go. However, all I did was copy the TOG cultures.txt and replace turkishgfx with pecheneggfx or cumangfx where appropriate, and switch 1 letter of the name of the image file for the Pecheneg tribal CoA. It's easy enough that anyone could do it on their own.

I tried this fix but west africans and iranians use westerngfx now.

Also Zoroastrian Persians are probably in severe need of a portrait set, esp. given that I don't think they dressed at all like their Sunni conquerors...

I tried this fix but west africans and iranians use westerngfx now.

This can be fixed by updating "graphicalculturetypes.txt". And dont know if it's intended but cultures using pecheneggfx and cumangfx still have muslim castle/citiy/temple pictues. IMHO using those fancy new steppe pictures would be more appropriate. But I cant figure out, how this could be done.
p.s.: And I had to delete "portraitproperties.txt" cause it messes up clerical hats.

Great mod btw!

 

[Federalist girl]

It's settlements.gfx I believe.

Awesome!

Your work + Danevang's is making me very excited for the future of CK II's portraits!

Amazing work Crackd.hmy:

That's actually my work, but thanks all the same.

 

[Antak]

Holy shit, is that even CKII ?! Oo

 

[G.Strategos]

That's actually my work, but thanks all the same.

My sincere apologies...

 

[Sleight of Hand]

Nah, made it in MS Paint. The trick is to wear those cut-out 3D glasses you used to get in cereal boxes.

Oh, and crack. Smoke lots of crack.

Wut.

 

[CrackdToothGrin]

Wut.

What?

 

[cybrxkhan]

What?

I thought "wut" was a legitimate expression of extreme surprise and shock in casual standard American English (in this case good surprise and shock), unless I am confusing that with "wat"?
