I got the game for free after a friend kept telling me to try it. I noped out after seeing Lance Reddick in a wig cast as Athena. I checked out Based Mods and Nexus and no luck. There is one on nexus for removing portraits so I know it's possible.
They know what they were doing, deliberate as a fuck you, the fuckers.
is this the only portrait of her in the game? or are there angry, happy, or other facial expressions or body changes for this character?
I think I found the files but I can't play the game at the moment, so any changes I won't be able to tell if it works till I get around booting it. But knowing this tidbit would really help me know if I'm on the right track.
It's been a couple years ago now. Bought it on Switch on a sale primarily because I'd liked Bastion and Transistor. I don't remember a lot of exact details like that.
If you can't find one, you could see what the portrait removal mod does, and try to make your own, depending on how complex it is.
The description of the mod says the following:
Removes all images of Aphrodite from the game. Particle effects will still show when taking a boon from her.
Should work with mod loader, although you can also manually replace the files in the game like so:
replace the "Game/Animations/PortraitAnimations.sjson" file to remove portraits from boons and the codex.
replace the "Game/Obstacles/House.sjson" file to remove the image of the scroll decoration in Zagreus's room.
replace the "Scripts/ConditionalItemData.lua" file to remove the option to buy the scroll decoration from the contractor shop.
PortraitAnimations.sjson looks like the main one, see what that's like and if you could just replace/redirect to your own image.
If you wanted it to match the game style, you could even just take that image and shop it a bit until it's more to your liking.
That's the plan :-D I just wanted to check first, because if I do it it's just going to be topless big breasted women that will have no ties to the artistic style. If I do make it I might, might, release one using ai generated hot chicks that fit the game's art style.
I read that the game is designed to be super easy to mod, but I haven't looked into the file structure and part of me suspects these fuckers would go out of their way to make just this one part more difficult.
I unpacked some pkg files thanks to deppth and the textures in the GUI.pkg seems to be the one holding the character portraits. But I'm not sure if its the only asset file I need to alter. Can't test atm, don't have the saves. I suppose I can draw a mustache on Hadesman (whatever he's called) and see if it shows.
Dev.pkg errors when unpacking so... I assume it's encrypted, if that is the case and the actual assets that needs modding is in there then well, fuck, they really are a bunch of dog-water bitchasses.

Would be nice to mod out 100% of the dialogue as well. It's mostly melodramatic garbage.
The writing is woke trash, including making Achilles and Patroclus gay lovers.
Did you play the game? Please help:
Look at this shit image of "Aphrodite"
is this the only portrait of her in the game? or are there angry, happy, or other facial expressions or body changes for this character?

Aphrodite looks like a MTF tranny.

I doubt if I'll buy their next game.

Keep us abreast with the status of your mod.
*chuckle*
update: figured it out, made new post because I didn't want to use imgur. is there a dot win image hoster?
