Has there been any progress on fixing the fat chins for the custom portrait sets? I know both Berber and Bedouins still have at least one chin option that starts fat.
 
Any plans to integrate the new Muslim gfx? Hell, if you aren't going to use to replace your Berbers or Bedouins, could it be used for Italians? Not a fan of their new look.
The new muslims are used for the Levantines and Egyptians. I've been making further improvements to the Italian portraits.
 
I found a bug caused by running this with HIP (EMF+SWMH). You have some cultures in your blgccswmh\common\cultures\BLGCC_cultures.txt file whose script names were changed or something, and these cultures get spawned into Random/Shattered Worlds. The names you have for these cultures are "east_gothic", "assysrian", "songhai", "karantanci", and "crusader_culture".

What does this mean? I have never seen it before during installation. Now there's a new addon submod called BLG religious clothing for vanilla. Does it mean I have to activate it when I play HIP?
The description says "BLG religious clothing for vanilla", so I think that it's not needed for HIP. Instead for HIP you will need to activate both the EMF and SWMH submods, if you've installed both components (which is the default configuration).

A big thanks for the update to Nendur and everyone else involved in the development.

The religious clothing submod changes the religions to set up priest clothing and such. It was supposed to be a temporary thing, but it's been a couple of months without a fix now.
For HIP a matching version has been included in the compatibility mods already.

It's probably a conflict with Conginital Overhaul, remove its gfx/characters and interface/portraits directories.
 
Why do the Catalans use different portraits in the HIP (EMF+SWMH) version than they do in the vanilla version? I prefer the vanilla version where only the Basques stand out in the Iberian peninsula.

Catalans do use default Iberian portraits. There probably are CPR files in your install where Catalans do use Basque portraits.
 
Edit: Sorry, it wasn't your mod at all! My issue is fixed now and I feel less uncomfortable. D:

Hi, new to the game here. Just started playing and I really love your mod. But I am experiencing an issue, my husband in the game is 19, but his portrait never updated from child portrait to adult. Is this a known issue?
