Currently covers most vanilla and DLC contents:

• hair styles
  
• tattoos
  
• cosmetic genes
  
• life stages: newborn, child, adult, corpse
  
• gear (clicking on the avatar toggles the visibility of the headgear worn)

Modded hair styles are rendered directly using the hair texture. Of course all credits go to the original artists who created the hair textures.

Modded cosmetic genes are also rendered using their textures. This means the majority of horns and ears should show up in the avatars. Though it won't handle genes that significantly change the look of a pawn's head.

I'll gradually add support for other mods. Those I personally use will of course come first on the list, namely the Vanilla Expanded ones, but feel free to suggest your favorite ones as well.
You now have the choice to replace the portraits in the colonist bar with the avatars from this mod. Compatible with Colonist Bar Adjuster, Color Coded Mood Bar, and Colony Groups. I'd recommend using either Adjuster or Colony Groups to increase the size of the bar (and for other customization). I also highly recommend Color Coded Mood Bar as it improves not just the visual but also the performance over the vanilla one.
The mod has some built-in functionalities for AI-gen portraits. Check out the guide here for the setup.
The mod does have impact on the game performance. Disable colonist bar portraits if you want to minimize the impact. I'm aware of the issues, however it's a WONTFIX due to the amount of work. It's a trade-off that you need to decide for yourself.
This is a purely cosmetic mod and doesn't touch the save file, so it is safe to add or remove at any time. DLC are not required.

Should have no compatibility issues. Please report if you have any.

Unsupported gear that covers torso will either show as a t-shirt or a generic light-armor, based on whether the gear has the "armor" tag.

Please visit the mod settings for customization options.

The facial features are determined by the birth date of the pawn. Just so if you don't like the looks of a pawn and want to customize via a character editor, you can try giving them a different birthday.

Here is a guide[github.com] if you want to add your own patches.

I studied the source code of Colonist Portraits and Portraits of the Rim when starting the mod so credits to their authors.

Thanks to the legendary Aelanna for teaching me how to write my first transpiler; Tiago for contributing to the static portrait code.
