I remember playing a map many years ago, called "Snipers: Requiem". It's a typical snipers game, but with a few peculiarities. One of them that stood out to me was the use of a custom portrait in the game. I happened to find a gameplay video of that map that shows it:
First of all, is that a fully custom portrait or just a portrait for one of the units that never made it past the beta stage?
Secondly, this is a multiplayer map that was made more than 8 years ago. Were EUDs with such capabilities a thing back then?
If not, then how could custom portraits be used in multiplayer without EUDs?
None.
It's a built-in unused portrait.
Can't answer the EUD questions.
None.
EUDs were definitely around 8 years ago, but this was probably done with
extended portrait IDs and
custom unit portraits with EUD conditions.
I have no idea if extended IDs still works in SC:R, but modifying portraits.dat with EUDs should work and is probably a better solution.
