🖼️ Module Features

This mod adds a magical surprise to your Hogwarts Legacy gaming experience! It replaces some ordinary portraits in the castle corridors and common rooms with familiar portraits of iconic characters such as Harry Potter, Dumbledore, and Hagrid.

  • **Dynamic and Static Paintings**: Most of the current replacement portraits are **moving magic paintings**, just like in the original! The author also plans to add a **static version** and fix known issues in future updates.
  • **Easter Eggs and Tributes**: This is mainly a mod full of fun and tributes. Imagine that when you are walking in the grand corridors of Hogwarts, you inadvertently catch a glimpse of a portrait of Harry or Dumbledore. Do you smile knowingly and feel that the wizarding world becomes more real? Its original intention is similar to those cats roaming in the castle in the game, adding a little fun to exploration.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
