[Help] Animated Portrait Modding

[steamtex]

I'm trying to make a duplicate of the human portrait which I can then modify to my own liking, but I'm finding this to be more difficult than it should be. Is it possible to do so without the use of Maya? I'm trying to find a way to make the mesh files reference identical but renamed versions of the standard human portrait .dds files, but when I do so the game hangs on loading.

I think since the game is expecting Maya files for the translation, you'll need something that works like it. Which... may require Maya.

Yes it's possible. I made a couple Mass Effect races that reference the human animations. I followed this post:

Yes, feel free to use this. I created a brand new species under startrek called klingons. you just need to edit the dds files and thats it. you can edit hair, uniforms, body's what ever you want.
