About this mod
A simple portrait replacer for Ryana - multiple options, mostly lore friendly.

I wanted to learn how to mod games and the game's default portraits leave a lot to be desired . So for my first ever mod I decided to do a really simple swap of Ryana's portrait. There are multiple versions to choose from, you can only use one at a time. The portraits are the only file the mod replaces so if you want to ensure it is this mod's portrait in use, then it will need to overwrite anything it is conflicting with.
I have tested it with a whole raft of YAML based, FX and graphics overhauls and all the most popular portrait and character mods without issue. A few of these portraits aren't particularly typical 'Yorkshire lass' types but I wanted to have different looks available to appeal to different people's tastes.
This mod (and all portrait mods) work much better with HUD DIY . It allows you to customise various aspects of the HUD, including the size and position of portraits when comms appear on screen. I've included a couple of screenshots that show my settings and what they look like. Results will vary depending on your screen resolution. You need the main DIY file plus the Portraitedit optional file from that page.
The numbers on the screenshots correspond to the download files, so screenshot "3" is for "RyanaPlus3".
My other mods:
Fully lore friendly/realistic:
NPC Pilot Update - replaces every NPC portrait in the base game + all DLCs.
Femme Fatale Portrait Pack - Original portrait pack, 100 portraits of mixed styles.
Femme Fatale Portrait Booster Packs - 5 packs of 50 portraits in the same style as Femme Fatale.
Male Fatale Portrait Pack - Portrait pack for 100 male pilots.
Ryana Plus - portrait replacer for Ryana with 20 versions to choose from.
BattleChatter - replaces the in game music with military comms chatter.
Almost lore friendly/realistic (probably showing a bit a more skin than is likely but nothing over the top):
Somewhat Raunchy Femme Fatale Portraits Second female portrait replacer, 150 portraits, these ones didn't quite make it into my lore friendly pack as they were showing a bit too much skin.
Almost lore friendly (honest) but not particularly realistic:
Temperature Management Specialist Femme Fatale Portraits - 190 female portraits. Technically there are bits of lore that suggest that pilots wore very little clothing due to heat in the cockpit.... This clearly takes that too far, pretty much all the shots are zoomed out and in skimpy armour.
Others:
Pinup Emblems 50 pinup style patch badges/company emblems.
