    I'm having a problem adding custom portraits to the game. I downloaded the portrait pack from Terra-Arcanum, so as far as I know there shouldn't be anything wrong with the actual files. I've listed them all properly in my userport.mes file, and having checked the help file multiple times, it doesn't look like I'm doing anything wrong. Yet when I try to create a new character, the portraits refuse to load. I'm sorry for asking stupid questions like this, but I really need some help.

    When choosing a custom portrait, you have to scroll forward (that is, clicking the right arrow). They won't show up scrolling backwards.

    If that doesn't work I'd like to look at your userport.mes. And while I'm not familiar with the portrait pack I'd assume they're in the right format (and that you put them in the right directory) but I wouldn't be overly shocked if they turned out to be faulty. I'm just a merry cynic. :)

    Other than that I can't think of anything.
