📋 About This Mod
THE LATEST VERSION OF COMMANDER PORTRAIT LOADER IS REQUIRED
STARTING A NEW GAME IS REQUIRED FOR CAREER MODE
This mod changes the portraits of Behemoth, Dekker, Glitch and Medusa to

and especially to JWolf1672 and other CPL authors for including
those portraits in the latest CPL release and making
this mod possible, you all are truly wonderful.
A cosmetic mod for BattleTech that replaces the portraits of four starting ronin pilots with more lifelike versions, addressing the game's default potato-like appearance.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved (271 endorsements) and decent download count (5,544) for a niche cosmetic
- Directly fixes a common complaint about the default portraits looking like potatoes
- Simple visual improvement that doesn't affect gameplay balance
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2019 — may not be compatible with the latest BattleTech patches
- Only covers four specific pilots, so other characters remain unchanged
For BattleTech players who are bothered by the default ronin portraits and want a quick visual upgrade. If you're a completionist who wants all characters to look better, this mod only covers a few, so you might need additional portrait mods. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes — this is purely cosmetic.
