Pics in MMHQ .44 not randomly picking
« on: 22 March 2019, 20:47:07 »
New computer, new upload of MMHQ. Had just gotten fun in my last campaign, but no longer have that computer. Setting up, I downloaded the ink effects pic packs and unzipped them into "Male" and "Female" folders in the /images/portraits subfolder. Then, I opened MMHQ and hired some new people. Only MMHQ wouldn't generate pics for any of them. I've tried several ways (Males instead of male, etc.) but I'm stumped...

(Oh, and does the "Randomize Portrait(s)" EVER work?)

I'm sure it's something obvious I'm missing, but can't figure out what it is.

Have you enabled the option to randomly generate portraits by role?

Automatically assign portrait on role change? Yes that is clicked on.

If you change the role it would assign a portrait, but if your hiring a new person you need to have the boxed above that check for each role in portrait generation.

I have every single one of those boxes checked.

I just did this a couple months ago for .43, on another computer, and had no problems.

At this point we’d need to see the log file.

So I hired two mechwarriors and then set their images, and will attach the mekhqlog file here. Or a different file?

I've opened a bug report here - https://github.com/MegaMek/mekhq/issues/1160

If you can zip up and attach your campaign file and any custom units to that bug report. Someone will have a look at it.

Had the same issue, fixed it (this time, not last time) by not having subfolders past the Male/Female. Now it's picking pics randomly for all my hires/captures, but I can't use both the BW/Color ink effects pics.
