When I click on the regime tab at the bottom, I have only a question mark where I would expect a portrait of my supreme leader. Is this correct.

Wild suggestion: Try digging into the game files and see if you can replace it with a photo of yourself... preferably in full military dress uniform. Also please send me a copy.

This may or may not be an attempt to enrich my "Grognards Gone Wild" picture collection.

I have a Star Trek redshirt from Halloween 20 years ago I could put on, but that’s not going to inspire my troops lol.

p73 of the manual seems to indicate there should be a portrait. I guess it’s a bug?

It is good that matrix recruits can make such wonderful suggestions. Good to have you here.

Crimguy is correct however. Perusal of the manual would suggest there should be a photo for the portrait of the regime leader. This must be a bug and I'm sure they will work it out. In the meantime I'm thinking of creating a custom portrait and finding those game files to add it to.

Ok, after rummaging around I found this.
In the 'graphics/systemgraphics/se1' folder there is a 'png' file named 'quickregimeframe'
I did a test & after replacing that file a with photo of, guess who...here was the result.
Obviously, it needs to be tweaked.

Anyways, maybe 'Vic' can assist.

Same question mark is used for things like arachnids and so on. I highly doubt that they're using different image files, so even if you will find that file - your character also will be a king for bugs & rogue AIs. :P

After further testing, the image appears on all other factions to include their inset photo.
So...back to the drawing board.
