Could I get some advice on how to give my soldier an SMG? Can you add weapons to a weapon class, say adding the Locust and Tempest into the pistol class? Or do you need to overwrite one weapon with another say by replacing the Predator Pistol file with the Locust SMG file?


I think you need to replace a weapon with another weapon. Adding it simply won't work, the only way it would work is if you had access to ME2's classes and added SMGs as one of the usable weapons for the soldier. However that can't be done on the save editor or at least nobody has done it. When I changed my squadmates weapons, I replaced weapons. For example I replaced an assault rifle with a handcannon. I don't know if it works the same with your character though.

Did you format it? Did you let it finish? Did it give you a message saying that it had formated correctly?

Yes, the message that it meets the 360s requirements  popped up, i press A, shut the console off, turned it back on and i had to configure it again.

That may be a problem with either your 360 or your USB. I suggest you call MS support....but leave the modding out of the discussion. All you should mention is that your USB isn't formatting like it should.

it could just be that your usb drive isn't compatible with the 360. MS did say that there may be brands that wouldn't work. what do you have anyway?

also, if anyone is still wondering, yes you can choose how much space on your usb drive to dedicate to the 360 with the minimum being 1 gb. it takes about 3/4 of that 1gb for system use and leaves you with about 256mb for storage. i have a 4gb drive, used 1 gb for the 360 and the other 3gb is still usable by my pc.

now it's personal question time. i can't seem to change my lip color. the value i'm changing is HED_Lips_Tint_Vector under vector paramaters. is this the right one? i tried using small decimals at first for a subtle change and got nothing. so i changed R,G, and B to 1 to see if they would turn bright white and nothing happened. anyone know why?

Can I change my Shepard's level from 3 to 30? I assume it's possible, my only concern are teamates. I'm guessing I need to change their levels individually or something or will they go to level 30 just like my Shepard will?

At the moment I only have male characters so I can't test lip color at the moment.

why change your level when you can just add skill points regardless of level? i'm level 4 on my newest shepard and i have every skill maxed out. i just added up how many skill points i needed to evenly fill my skills and added them in gibbed while i was still escaping the cerberus base. blazed through with heavy throw and heavy overload.  :)

Level means nothing. Just give shepard and team-mates about 100 squad points or something like that to max everything out. That's if you don't feel like doing the X+A glitch which usually works faster for me.

Some more questions:
1. Does this allow you to "fix" a charmed Conrad?
2. What happens in ME2 if you never recruited Wrex in ME?
3. What difference does having the Elkoss Combine license make?
4. What are all the different Feros coutcomes? Are they determined by intimidating/charming Jeong and the surviving colonists?
5. Dr. Michel, how does killing the blackmailer differ from blackmailing him?
6. Sha'ira's trinket, what result does using it have on ME2?

You can screw with the two checks for conrad but that will just make him not appear in the game at all and you will not be able to get a discount for the illium store that you'd normally have to deal with

Not sure.

I'm mostly sure that makes no difference.

Variable outcomes: all live but colony fails, all live and colony continues, all die and colony fails. Dealing with Jeong makes no impact on the outcome.

Not sure, if dead she's grateful in email. I don't immagine blackmailing him makes a difference.

No outcome for trinket yet. DLC might deal with this but no impact as of now.

The trinket is used in the first game.  From the wiki "If you inform Xeltan, the elcor diplomat, that Septimus was responsible
for revealing his secrets she will also give you a mysterious trinket
that can be used on Eletania to unlock the secrets of a Prothean
ruin. However it is important to speak to Xeltan before going to
Sha'ira; otherwise the door to her chamber will be permanently closed
and you will never receive the trinket."

Yes I am VERY well aware of that having played ME1 over 30 times. However this is one of the tracked ME1 choices that are stored in every save carried into ME2.....there are two checks...one tacking whether you got the trinket and the other tracking whether you used the trinket. These ME1 choices have so far had no impact or consequence in ME2 and the fact they are tracked may indicate they will be used either in future DLC or in ME3.

I think I'll mod it thanks, X+A glitch is something I haven't learned to do. Thanks for the info anyways.

Very simple.  When you evolve a power to level 4 press X+A simultaneously and you'll get the power and keep the points.  So if you take a level 3 power to level 4 you'll get 4 points back; but if you have 10 points on hand so you can take a power from having no points to level 4 you'll get 10 points and can simply repeat this to unlock all your powers all at once.

If you have 9 points on hand you can also use this to take all the points out of a squadmembers power so that they'll never use it by taking the power from level 1 to level 4, pressing X+A and then pressing B to cancel evolving the power.  This will take the level 1 point away and give you the 10 points to do whatever you want with them. 

This is most helpful for disabling an allies ammo power since the AI is screwed up when it comes to the squad ammo powers.  Further instructions can be found on my Squad Ammo Patch thread, below.   Oh yeah and feel free to sign it,  I'm bugging Christina Norman and the other programmers to patch it and I could always use more signatures.

Honestly I think I might find it easier just to give myself the points on the editor, besides I'm already editing so there's no need. All I need to decide is whether I should give my female adept yellow TIM's eyes or not or instead give her brighter blue eyes.

Could someone please explain how to use USB XTAF for the people who only know how to use the computer for downloading porn and using there email? Because it's like the ****ing Matrix on this DOS menu and the OP states "Go to "File," then click "Open Device." When I can't click jack and its like all 01010101110's. ****

It says go to file Open Device, then something called {dir} something should appear. Click it until your character's name appears. If that doesn't work then I don't know what will.

 i don't know why yours is opening in a dos window but did you download the whole package that javier made? the one in this link works perfectly... http://www.megaupload.com/?d=E3LNNNAA

it has all the programs in one file. and xtaf should update itself when you run it the first time. i think version 17 is in the package and it will update to v26. then you should be good to go.

If you're already editing and you don't have 9 or 10 unallocated points sitting around to max everything then it will be easier to just edit it in.  In the future though if you want to max out your abilities without going to the trouble of modding, now you can.

Yeah I know, modding is cool but I wish I didn't have to go back to my PC each time I want to change something. Plus I have to delete the old backups I made of save X and Y and all that.

i'd redownload the package cuz mine has a real icon that looks like the 360 guide button so i think he may have updated it before i downloaded it. maybe you got an older version. also, i read that some people needed to update their .NET drivers on windowsupdate.com before things would work correctly. try running windows update and look under optional updates and see if theres a .NET update listed there.
