[MOD] Ethnicities and Portraits Expanded - Released

[Byzantium2000]

Nice Find! Wasn't trying to justify the crown used in Ck2/3 just wanted to say that I found a possible inspiration for it. Why would Trebizond depict him the way they did if it was wrong?

Lol no prob, do note a Trebizond painter made this some 300-350 years after his reign. It’s not like they can see or have access to what crown he wore, especially when the style fell out of use 200 years prior. So he’s probably depicting him wearing contemporary imperial clothes.

Where as this portrait of his crown made by Greek scholars during the 1400s in Constantinople is more accurate. Probably due to them having access to surviving coins, Portraits and manuscripts from his reign still in the city unlike the Trebizond painters.

Even then it’s not a 1 for 1 recreation like their portraits of John Komnenos and beyond, with contemporary 15th century influence on it

There was no official EPE upload until yesterday, the other versions on PDX are fans.

Here are the official downloads on the PDX website. These will be maintained by myself and should only be delayed by a bit due to upload times.

Can you update it again? Please, for 1.6.0.1? I see it got the update on steam but not paradox mods. Thanks in advance.
Thanks for the update.

Just wanted to say, cool mod, but the added hair styles are of a much lower quality than vanilla and sort of jarring.

What happened with this update, the finns and estonians have the wrong ethnicity again?

Just tried this with 1.6.01, and I was playing in the Iberian peninsula and everybody looked like weird, pale freaks? I had CFP and everything else disabled as well.

same thing with me, i even made sure i didn't have any other mod enabled but it was still bugged

Can you update it here again in paradox mods please? I know it was updated yesterday. Thanks again* in advance.

Mod doesn't work after last updates. Every character looks different like albino and naked.

Going by the last few comments, I guess I got lucky: with this mod enabled my game just aborts initialization halfway through, so I don't have to see the carnage

Deleted. The problem was between the monitor and the chair.

I'm in the same boat. I've just download the latest version (1.1.8) and it is bombing to the desktop before it gets to the menu screen.
Tried it with no other mods and it still bombed out.

Considering I had it in the load order mostly for the added ethnicity variation, I switched it with the Human Phenotype Project.

I swapped in the opposite direction.

If you still haven't got it working, try this:

I didn't realise the extra step was required.

What extra step are you talking about? I've watched the video, but I don't recall doing anything less than what it explains.

I didn't do the edit of the descriptor.mod file as I'd never had to do it with the other mods I use.

I always do it, so my launcher doesn't have any excuses for not finding a mod I downloaded.

There's a problem with some files in EPE, reported in the bug forum a while ago and in discord but no response. Delete arabic_qalansuwwa_caliph_early, fra_crown_of_louis_german_01a and all the zoroastrian_imperial_crown files in headgear of gfx. Then it will work

Has the Paradox Forum EPE mod been updated for 1.6.1.2? It still gives errors in my launcher

There's no version more recent than 1.1.8#5 uploaded, so not yet.
