Minor detail in creating new NPCs

I hope this isn't redundant or anything. Anyway, the NPC mods I've downloaded have all been missing one small detail - the portrait on the right side in the Party Selection screen. Here's a screenshot showing what I'm referring to.

 

In Kotor Tool, if you go to ERFs -> swpc_tex_gui.erf -> P you'll find all the portrait files, and each NPC has one with a 3 tacked on (e.g. po_pbastila3.tpc). That's what those are. To create one of these for your NPC , you need to have your character already made, and spawn them in the game, and then you can take a screenshot of their image in the Character/Level Up screen, which you can use to make this file. Name it whatever you named your portrait file + 3. For Dustil, that would give you po_dustil3.tga.

 

Otherwise, that image shows up blank white. It's a minor detail, but it makes the character look more like they belong in the game.
