Portrait of Albus and Severus - Personal Collection
🎨 **Let the legends return to their rightful place! ** This simple mod brings the portraits of Albus Dumbledore and Severus Snape back into the Headmaster's Office.
✨ Mod content
- **Core Portrait**: Added static portraits of Dumbledore and Snape (not GIF, will not move), they will replace the two original paintings in the office.
- **Personal Collection Pack (optional)**: Contains a collection of paintings that I have modified and can be found throughout Hogwarts. **Please note**: This collection may not match the original settings of the game, but it is full of fun!
🖼️ Image preview
- Upon entering the Headmaster's Office, you will see portraits of Albus and Severus on the left, just like in the movies (sort of).
- My personal collection of paintings are scattered throughout Hogwarts.
- **IMPORTANT**: All images in the personal collection pack are in **GIF format**, which means they are **moving magic portraits** in the game!
- Each compressed package comes with a preview video showing all the paintings. I’m too lazy to upload it to YouTube, so just watch it here~ 😉
📥 Installation Guide
💡 **Recommendation**: Before installation, back up your `Atlas` folder or the `.bk2` file that will be replaced so that you can easily restore the original painting at any time.
**Installation path**:
`SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Hogwarts Legacy\Phoenix\Content\Movies\Atlas`
**Installation steps**:
- Copy the `.bk2` file you want to the above `Atlas` folder.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- 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.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- 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.
