How to run Portraits Manager in Era 2

Portraits Manager

The Portraits Manager that i used with classic Wog 3.58 was not working under Era 2, so here's what i did, since when you try to run it on desktop the Portraits Manager was giving an error code mentioning H3bitmap.lod, i temporarily switched the H3bitmap file (destination: H3-Era2/Data/H3bitmap) with the H3bitmap file of classical wog. I didnt try to open the game, i only tried to open P.M. and it worked:


After this test, i put back the original H3bitmap in its place, i created a new empty folder, i put the Wog H3bitmap file and Portraits Manager in it and it worked again, except this time i could only see the original portraits. So, i duplicated and copied my alternative PCX portraits to the folder too, and now i can use portraits manager with Era 2. Only little problem is my alternative portraits take twice the space they use to but they are so small in size anyway. Actually it is the extra H3bitmap file that is 108MB.
