Is there a way to unlock armor early? I know you can use the editor to equip any armor, but you still have to purchase it. There has to be some values that you can check in the hex since armor carries over between playthroughs.

Anyone know if this is possible?

I also, would love to figure this out. Is this possible with Hex Pordis?

I don't know.  If anyone sees something other than coalesced.ini editing to do this, let me know.

In the meantime, I suppose brave souls can explore more of the intVariables array that is not yet mapped.  Maybe looking for changes just before and just after unlocking some piece of armour.

I just noticed the other day that the Quest stuff wasn't visible in the original Gibbed, either.  I didn't remember making that visible

[Dark Penitant]

Though really, you can get almost all the armour you need after you get access to The Citadel and Omega. Regardless, I remember reading something about being able to unlock armour early, and I'm almost positive it has to do with hex editing.

Could it be Modio just doesnt like my usb stick? All my saves are on this usb stick. When I Open from a Device though, Modio shows it as blank. Am I doing something wrong or could it just be the stick.

[Dark Penitant]

Hmmmm, that's weird. Modio should have it. I personally use USB XATF, but that's an extra step because I'm old fashioned like that.

[gpthree]

Its a 16gb usb stick. I just formatted a 1gb micro sd and used a usb adapter. Moved my ME save there and Modio recognized the save. So there's definitely something funny going on with it not recognizing the saves from the original 16gb stick.

How many gigs is your USB Device? I notice anything above 10 Gigs Modio doesn't like to show the saves.

@gpthree
I haven't tried Modio with such a large usb, but did you also try exploring the device? I think it runs different code in Modio, so maybe it will have different limitations? (Finding the saves in device explorer is a little different, but not that hard---they are even named rather than just numbered if you have a copy of your gamertag on the usb stick).

Edit:  That's sad if Modio won't support the max size usb device.  I assume you are using the latest Modio?

I'll try using the explore option and see if it will recognize the saves on the drive. I keep all my saves and my gamer tag on the usb. it would be nice to see them named. At least I did get my saves to be recognized when I transferred them to a 1gb stick. Of course I didnt the expected results in-game from the plot selections I picked, but I definitely thing thats user error on my part.

How would I get texture mods (such as new suits for tali) on my xbox?

Unfortunately we cannot do that on xbox.  On pc they edit files we don't have access to and run additional programs as I understand it.  We are stuck with what can be changed in the save file only.

[Dark Penitant]

Which basically translates into what you have unlocked, what your face looks like, what weapons and powers you have, how much ammo there is; things like that.

Great thread. Helped a lot but I corrupted by original ME2 file and while I did make a back up, my .xbsav file won't show in my 360 but that's not the matter at hand.

I decided it would be easier to just create a new character but I don't have a ME1 file. Is there a way to import a ME1 character by this method? If not, can I just create a new ME2 character and mod it as quickly as possible or would that corrupt the game?

It's always best to start with only a few changes until you get comfortable with it.  A common mistake is forgetting to rehash/resign the career file, which would result in a corrupted file.  I would suggest trying to recover from your backup copy---copy it and try putting it back unchanged, just to make sure your file removal/insertion methods are working properly.

This tool cannot read me1 files.  Yes, you can mod many things if you save when Miranda is telling you to wake up. 
Some things can be problematic if modded too early in the game.

See here and here, for some limitations regarding squadmates.  IIRC some weapons mods may be problematic before Freedom's Progress.

What mods are you wanting to do?

 Hey, I'm new to this type of thing and this question probly got asked already:whistle: But, is there a way to have shepard wear a mesh like Blue Suns armor. It sucks that they get it and we don't, specially that helmet. Sorry for the stupid question. 

[Dark Penitant]

Ah, no, I'm afraid not. In order to do that, as well as more complicated stuff you have to start modding .ini files and the like. Basically you just mod the save itself:

Nothing too drastic. I just want to change the canon back story for ME2.

[Cheezer]

Oh. damn. Well whatever would've been cool. Sorry for being dumb. I feel like a freshman in back in highschool again. Thanks for clearing that up though dark penitant

Nothing too drastic. I just want to change the canon backstory for ME2 as fast as possible.

Follow the OP google docs link Javier made for me1 history changes.

In a nutshell, save as soon as Miri tells you to wake up.  Mod the save per me1 history you want.  Set raw tab->end game state to "LivedToFightAgain" and use that as an me2 import game.

Hey, this might sound dumb, once again, but if you can mod hats onto your shepard what about other NPC headgear/helmets. It's hard to make time to get to this with work in my way, so I'm not able to do lots of experimenting with much more than weapons and stuff.

I haven't personally had much luck with hats, etc.  The best I've had is for a hat to show up in the squad screen (poorly---intersecting with the hair), but not in game.  If anyone has had some success with this I'd like to know.  I'm guessing one needs to set some special scalp/hair masks as for the mohawk.

AFAIK other npc gear is not accessible from the xbsav.  (But I still have very limited hopes for finding some magic strings that work. :-)

I just recently started modding ME2 (or at least attempted to) and am having some difficulties that perhaps someone here can help with.  I have some experience in modding both PC and Xbox saves using Modio and have never run into this issue before.

Basically what happens is this: I transfer the career save back to the Xbox after the normal procedure of modding the save, injecting it back into the career save, rehashing and saving onto the USB disk .  Once I start up ME2, I don't have the option to load a game.  I exit back out into the dashboard, check the memory on the HD and the career save is just gone.  I've tried it multiple times and have confirmed that the data is indeed on the HD before starting the game.  If I don't rehash before saving and then transfer, the load game works but of course it's corrupted.  I can't seem to figure out why this keeps happening.  Any advice?
