Dude just go find a USB thumb drive and format it using the xbox feature. I'd just get 4 to 16 meg one but a 4 is all I have needed.



It takes 30 seconds to do the moving back and forth but the edit of course depends on what you do. All I did at first was give myself credits and minerals and set those me1 flags. Remember you have to edit a finished me2 game and start a new game using the Import ME2 option. I was really amazed what I missed but I knew i had lost my 100 hour ME1 game that i played over and over and did everything you can do. I imported a speed run and i did very few side quests. Plus I did the evil run and totally missed some things in me2 like conrad and the arachni.



and as long as you are not modding your xbox gamertag to cheat on achivements I don't see any reason especially since this is a single player game.



Hell do they even check a users saves except for corruption

Thanks for the information. A 2GB is like... €10 so I'll get one! Thanks!

Yeah they are really cheap these days but some are better than others. It does a test when you format it but I am sure whatever you get will be fine.

It's a nice feature and way overdue as it's just smart to back up files. Granted many games won't let you copy but move. ME2 is that way too BUT once you edit one you can copy it

I try to remember to copy mine to a second usb drive every now and then. I actually need to do that soon just in case.

Hey guys. I've searched and read trying to find the answer, but there's so much info in this and other threads I can't tell if it has never been brought up or if I just missed it.



Question is, is there a way to change the love interest in ME2? I held out hope that Gibbed would put out a new version of his editor, but haven't seen anything. I don't have an issue with having to hex edit the save if I have to. I'm hoping it's a simple status pointer like it was in ME1.



What I want to do is take one of my completed final mission game saves and just change who my Love Interest is in the save. Any info is appreciated.



Thanks!

I'd like to know that answer too. I'm chasing all of them and trying the romance one > break up > romance the other post game.

I got tali and miranda that way but not sure if I can score all three, lol

I had them all pissed off at me on my one playthrough and don't see how to fix it

I would bet Freedom's Progress won't work - but who knows. As far as the game is concerned you would be taking a Shadow Broker save from after Horizon and trying to use it on a map before Horizon. My current line of thinking is that those are precisely the conflicts that lead to the black screen. But if it works than we know what I'm thinking is wrong.

My next test is going to be to open the galaxy map completely as soon as I get the Normandy - make a save - do Shadow Broker until I can save with Liara in the squad - go back to the first save and try to recruit someone using the change location method. I'm hoping that will bypass the plot progression stuff. If this works Liara will be viable on all recruitment missions, side missions and the IFF. Loyalty still might be a problem though.

Also, there is a field in Gibbed called "Loading Tip" under the plot heading. I want to figure out what that does.

Hopefully that works im about start my career now also the loading tip this is like say when your going to a new place and you get the load screen all the load tip does is say something like''import your save to mass effect 3 if you survive'' or like ''using squad mates powers(like garrus) can weaken certain enemys defenses'' changing tat field will only change the little hint you see.....at least i think so tell me what you find out

Ah, that makes perfect sense.  I never thought of the obvious - I wonder why Gibbed put that in.

I have been trying a few things today but no breakthroughs.  One thing I've noticed is that doing this sometimes effects the ability to save - so I can't mod anymore on some of my games.  I tried to do Thane's recruitment just now and I got the black screen but what is odd is that I have found my way over to the Salarian in the dark and I'm having the convo about the mercs and everything seems fine - other than there is no picture.  When I give commands Liara and Miranda answer, I can hear the powers going off, I can bring up their squad screens.  We're so close on these black screen missions.

I haven't tried to restart and open the Galaxy map because there is no plot flow reason why there should be a problem with Thane right now - yet there is - so I am assuming the galaxy thing is a dead end. 

I plan to take a look at the hex editor again since I have 2 saves in the same spot one with Jack and Miranda and another with Liara and Miranda and see if anything leaps out but at this point it would probably be easier to finish this level in the dark than find the right switch in the hex.

I am curious to know why Overlord and the Collector ship worked perfectly but there are black screens on other missions.  I am wondering if the recruitment missions are different than DLC and side missions.  If that is the case that would suck because Overlord is really the only side mission long enough to be worth the manual mod at the beginning.  The rest are too short to be worth it.

Holy ****, I just figured I'd try to get in the elevator (actually it's door) after the Salarian and the picture came on!!!!  WTF.  So there is still hope.

Hmm, I guess where you morph into the level effects the black screen or maybe because it sat there for a few minutes while I was typing.  I'm going to try to play through now and see what happens.  I'll keep you posted.

The level played perfectly with no bugs, Liara was even in the cut scene with the merc you push out the window but absent from all the others - odd. I also started again and went through the convo in the dark and the picture came on in exactly the same spot - right when I drew my gun. I think that might be the key actually. The collector ship worked for me and so did Overlord and both of those missions begin with you drawing your weapon. The inability to save thing is going to be a problem though, I don't know what I'm going to do with this now since I can't save anymore. I have the career backed up luckily.

[Stratgtar565]

I'm going to try and replace the shepard character model with the character model of other squadmates. I have no choice but to hex edit, which is a pain (mostly because I have NO IDEA how to even do it). It all looks like a jumbled mess of couples of numbers to me. Does anyone have a tutorial on how to hex edit, or at least partially understand it? I've done it before, but that was with strict tutorials, and it never explained the way it worked, the mechanics of it. Playing as Garrus (without modding an ini file) here I come! Maybe. Probably Not.

[Stratgtar565]

Sorry for double post, but the "Liara in Squad" mod sounds very enticing. I'll have to try that!

I don't think you could do that with a hex editor anyway, even if you successfuly told your save game you were someone else the game has files you can't access (except on a PC) that would override that command on loadup.  I'm no Hex editing expert but it mostly involves taking two saves that are as close as possible to each other except for the thing you are searching for.  So finding things like credits and ammo is relatively easy because you can save, pick up credits and then save again and then look to see what changed. 

The problem with Liara is that a lot happens between the last point you can save without her and then save with her to compare so there are tons of things that have changed.  Her flag is also not where the other squad flags are - it also might not even be a single flag. 

I would consider offering to pay Gibbed to add a "liara in squad" feature to his editor.  He could probably figure it out fairly quickly given the amount he's already done so far.

How?  are you using a save from another game and then putting it at freedoms progress?

You morph into that enviroment and then draw your weapon don't you?  I think that's what flicks off the black

[hypothead]

...Yea no enemy's are here and i cant get to the part when i first see tali. . .time to go to the collector base instead freedoms progress, I think i need jacob or miranda in my squad with liara i had garrus instead i think thats where i messed up at i will try to re-do it with miranda an liara and see what happens.

[aragfore03]

I've noticed recently that with my latest save game that when I change the plot flags from ME1, the game isn't picking up the change. Is anyone else having this problem? The game will pick up the changes I made to mineral counts, ability points, etc. However, the plot flag changes aren't being picked up.



Any help would be appreciated.

[javierabegazo]

The reason why is that when you change the plot points for ME1, you HAVE to select in the RAW area,



LIVED TO FIGHT ANOTHER DAY.



That marks that save as eligible for starting an NG+ game off of. Then you have to start the NG+ game and that new game will reflect all the changes of ME1 Plot flags

[aragfore03]

So I can only get the ME1 plot flag changes to work in a New Game Plus game of ME2.



Do I have it right?

Yes. that is, if you want to play with your shepard, and change his ME1 history, you'll have to start a new game to do so

Ok this is a weird fing when i went to jump to the endgame mission with liara and miranda a message pop u and said "according to your current plot state you have not completed the prerequisites to enter the "EndGame"chapter.

For the purpose of testing would you like to have your plot state set to the minimum(worst case) or the maximum(best case)prerequisites" and then it gives you a( A or option for continuing then after you chose a or b it says "MAX- Player ENDGAME with all referenced plots complete." Then after that the squad selection screen pos up and i have every one and thier all loyal( keep in mind after hrizon i only picked up thane and onlydid grunts mission so far ) so i chose tali and garrus on my squad and it also says liara in it to then im at the part where every body is getting of the ship and then i see that tali is my tech person(the person who goes in the little shaft to open the doors) for this mission but she is also in my squad after that cut scene i see for my squad for the final mission i have tali liara and garrus the i save it to do it again and same outcome i will try to beat the rest of the mission later and tell you what happens.

Been searching all week and haven't found anything.  Think I'll try to see if I can figure it out myself. 

I did two save files.  Started by standing next to my LI, saved the game, broke up with her, saved the game all without moving or doing anything else.

Did a by comparison of the two save games.  There's only 19 bytes of difference between the two.  Now will compare to other save games that I have with the same love interest and others.

That's some strange ****.

You are really going for the hard ones.  I would have thought the suicide mission was impossible to mod Liara into with all the specializations.  You have the four person squad going again?  Are you controlling her or is she on her own?  I've only ever had her in a three person squad where I control her.  No black screens I take it?   Liara is in the cut scene at the end too?

I'm pretty confident now that the black screen isn't the result of out of order plot flow like I thought before and it will disappear when the game auto draws your weapon - that's good news because we just need to be precise in where we save into in those problem areas.  It also means we don't need to screw with the galaxy map. I wonder if Liara is even the cause of the black screen since everything is fine as soon as the picture comes on.

My biggest problem now is that all my good saves are so heavily modded, unmodded, remodded and saved out of order that everything is buggy.

yea i have a four person squad and i can control liara up untill i die and i  have to reload my save the she is forced out of my control also no black screen os of yet and i have not got to the end yet but she wasnt in any cutscenes so far so im not that hopeful that she will be in the lasy one i just have to figure out how to keep in control of her or not die at all .....not likely i have to get past the part where i open all the vent in the shaft.
