Is it possible to create new character portraits for use in BoA?

In theory, yes. It's not supported, and you either have to replace the default graphics or make a custom graphics file that only works for one scenario -- TM is doing something like this, I think -- and both methods have their problems.

But yes, it certainly is possible to do, and The Louvre has at least one set of graphics (the vahnatai PC) that will do it.

EDIT: The gray dervish will do it, too.

Actually, the custom graphics sheet doesn't have problems- ANY graphics placed in the scenario folder (PCs) or the .cmg file (Macs) are updated within the scenario harmlessly.
This superimposition of graphics could have been used in Putidus, for example. (And, all things considered, probably should have been.)

TM, two things:

1) STOP TELLING ME HOW TO WRITE MY SCENARIOS.

2) So you've tried this and it works on Windows, too? Interesting. I'm definitely going to look into this for future reference.

Meow. And for Windows, all you do is switch the names of the graphics images.

There was no need to revive this.
