Can't mod portrait age thresholds in CK2+

[divsky]

I've copied the defines.lua file from vanilla CK2 and modded these four lines:

    PORTRAIT_ADULT_MALE_AGE_THRESHOLD = 14,            -- Male child to adult age portrait switch
    PORTRAIT_ADULT_FEMALE_AGE_THRESHOLD = 13,        -- Female child to adult age portrait switch
    PORTRAIT_MID_AGE_THRESHOLD = 35,                -- Middle age switch for character portraits
    PORTRAIT_OLD_AGE_THRESHOLD = 55,                -- Old age switch for character portraits

Then saved it in the CK2+ common folder. But when I play the portraits still switch at the vanilla 16/30/50 ages. Why isn't this working?

You have to place it in common/defines as of a few patches I think. I'm not sure you can just take the whole thing as is and plop it in there even then, so if that doesn't work take a look at the already existant files that CK2+ has to see how you add them.

It should work because I've done it before on the Game of Thrones mod, unless CK2+ is somehow different.

But yes, it must be in common/defines. If you put it in just the common folder, it can't find it. Furthermore, this should be obvious, but make sure you're using a copy of the CKII+ version of the defines. Do not use the CKII vanilla one.
