There are two packs, the first and original pack has backgrounds. The second pack doesn't have backgrounds, mimicking the style of the base game. The second pack also has a more consistent tone and style in terms of poses and tone of image, so In my opinion it's better but I've left the original one in case others prefer it. They are not compatible with each other.
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. Results will vary depending on your screen resolution. You need the main DIY file plus the Portraitedit optional file from that page.
Compatible with other portrait mods, shouldn't overwrite or interfere with anything and ive tested it with a load of order of all the usual popular mods (85+ mods active) without issue. So far anyway.
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.
