I'm loving the mod but for some reason the game always crashes on a specific date, not long after startup, when I enable the BLG for CK2+ component. If I play with CK2+ and the BLG generic component it doesn't crash (although of course the portraits do look a bit wonky), so it seems to be a problem with the CK2+ com patch.

I get this in the error log:

[portraittype.cpp:157]: No effect file defined for portrait type 'PORTRAIT_holo_hood_female'

Any idea what it could be and how to fix it?

That error is from the Trade League mod, you can update that.
Otherwise check exceptions.log as well, and verify that all DLC are activated.
 
Excuse me Nendur, I am wondering about something... I am a new downloader of your mod and I seem to be having a problem. When I loaded the game, I began a new campaign and noticed that many (if not all) of the portraits had problems. Many of the portraits were missing, and some had other pictures trying to intrude. Do you have any idea why those problems may be occurring? Thank you, and God bless:)

This is likely a conflict with another mod, perhaps a portrait mod like CPR.
 
No, I don't have any alternative portrait mods installed. The only mods that I have installed and could be conflicting are (I think): AD 633 Rise of Islam, and An Empires of Conquest Mod HIP version. The EoC mod allows for cultural melting pots and for someone to bring back Roman culture. Every other mod touches something else in the game.
 
Also, are you supposed to subscribe to the workshop version of mod, and download the forum version as well? Because that is what I did.. maybe that is what is causing the problem.

You just need one of the versions, currently the workshop version is outdated because it failed to upload repeatedly.
The conflict is with Rise of Islam, the download version of betterlookinggarbs.mod has the load order dependancy to make it work.

    • I forgot to mention that my CTDs were on startup and the end of the error.log has some invalid title history stuff followed by this:

    [trigger.cpp:2265]: Unknown trigger-type: "has_dionysus_prerequisites" at
    [trigger.cpp:2265]: Unknown trigger-type: "has_dionysus_prerequisites" at

    I don't know what this is or why it would be the last thing.

    I've got the same messages, so that's not it.

    I just talked with CK2 devs and it seems BLG does not recognise the Central African culture group properly, causing European looking holdings for Central African cultures.

    Also, any chance of compatibility patch with Rex Teutonicorum?

    In blgccck2+/common/cultures/BLGCC_cultures.txt you can replace the central african entry with
    Code: 
    central_african = {
	graphical_cultures = { westafricangfx africangfx muslimgfx }

	kanuri = {
		graphical_cultures = { berbergfx }
	}
	hausa = {
		graphical_cultures = { berbergfx }
	}
}

    Rex Teutonicorum is compatible apart from handling the communal governments.

    okay, after looking thru wtwsms's localization, I've determined that some incompatibility is causing a crash when it starts loading graphics during start up.
