MELE Mods thread

Quoting myself, because an update to the text will likely be missed ...

In Shepard's private terminal squad status or when picking squadmates before a mission, don't select the alternate appearance for Miranda (I think that came out as a DLC pack in the OT) ... it will partially override the mod, the result is both ugly and funny ... good news is, going back to the default catsuit undoes the override and the mod works as intended.

I really don't like the catsuit, so by habit, I always select the alternate appearance at first opportunity in game ... yeah, don't do that. I told the author, she might patch that out, but since it's not a bug ... it's a FEATURE! ... I don't think it's worth her time, maybe just a note on the mod page to say, "hey, don't do that." 

Edit add: A bit more info after some back and forth with the mod author ... I had the vanilla weapons option (not relevant) and only the first two armors, not the alt Freedom armor. But when I selected the alt appearance for Miranda, I put myself between the vanilla game and a missing element of the mod. I reloaded the mod, this time installed the alt Freedom armor, now when I select the alternate appearance, I don't get the gray alt armor, but the mod Freedom armor.

So the bottom line, you can't keep the original alt appearance armor (that works properly) with this mod (even if you didn't install the alt Freedom armor option), the only alt appearance available is the Freedom mod (and it must be installed). It won't show up in the squad selection screen ... those will always look like the default appearances. Likewise, once you complete the loyalty mission, the loyalty appearance in the squad selection screen will be the default, but show up at the Cerberus Ajax armor in game.

It's here! It's finally here!  The CItadel Epilogue mod has been ported to the Legendary Edition.  I never played it but heard great things about it.

You can get it here:

Oh, and it's compatible with the Audemus' Happy Ending Mod:  www.nexusmods.com/masseffectlegendaryedition/mods/323

Oh, I don't know I haven't played the game with the mods. I did reinstall the game and in the process of modding it. But ask on the mod pages posts section the creator seems friendly.

Good mod. Had my femshep face her evil ugly looking self.

the Origin App, maybe the new EA one too, has the option to "repair any corrupted/modified game files.
I'm not aware of the base MELE games being updated at all since last year or even longer, where I think they basically just updated the legal/credits/terms of service or whatever.

As far as I'm aware MET/MELE mods modify the game files directly, whereas for MEA for example they have to be loaded in each time and are outside of the game files.

To be sure tough, I'd make a backup of MELE before applying the update in question, just in case with ME3Tweaks Mod Manager.

At worst however, the mods itself should still be in your "mods" folder and just need to be reapplied with ME3Tweaks Mod Manager.
C:\Username\Documents\ME3TweaksModManager\mods

After updating the mod manager, I updated a lot of mods. When I loaded up a save, some of those updates messed things up. I still have a few more kinks to work out. I also downloaed a couple of new mods.

Here's images taken from the mod above that I posted.

Great screenshots.  Just downloaded the dream mod.  Just have to finish reading comments to see if it conflicts with any mod I use.  As for your second set of screenshots.  Love your sassy Shepard.

It's been a long time since anyone has posted here. Anyway's. Here's a few mods I downloaded recently others may want to add to their game.

Project Variety. I know it's been posted before on this thread, but this is a must have mod. It add's a lot of different outfits and hairstyles for a lot of characters seen in ME3. It is a very big mod. It also add's locations from the previous two games for Shepard to explore.

Morning's Combat Outfits for Kasumi LE2

There actually are a few decent mods for the LE, thank God. I was expecting the usual assortment of skins, skins, more skins and skins along with umpteen billion "AsHleY iZ a hAwT b1KinI bAbe" reskins.

But there's some good stuff out there - some pretty ambitious projects too.

Obviously The Happy Ending Mod and Take Back Earth are absolutely mandatory, and I'd never dream of playing without either. But little projects such as Galaxy Map Trackers for ME:1 and Charted Worlds for ME:1 are fantastic quality of life upgrades that improve the experience without making it feel 'cheaty.' Not having to have the wiki permanently open while exploring planets in ME:1 to locate those blasted mineral nodes is very liberating indeed. As is being given the choice not to automatically equip any new weapons I find in ME:2

Now to come to the point.

What I would really, really, really like is something that brings the ME:1 Citadel to ME:2 and ME:3, allowing you to explore the original wards and Presidium in all three games. In fact there's already something like that in the works, but at the current stage it's still in a very early alpha condition and I'm not expecting a stable version any time soon. I'm sure keeping an eye on it though.

I don't need this mod to do anything flashy, it doesn't need new missions, new vendor kiosks, new dialogue etc. etc. Just being able to walk around the original Citadel in ME:2 is more than enough for me, though I'd also like it to apply to ME:3.
