I'm brand new to Coalesced modding. I've found a way to have casual outfits added to Shepard's wardrobe upon the completion of certain quests (you earn the orange Omega jacket by giving the datapad to Aria, you earn your ME1 Alliance uniform by finding all 20 dogtags in the Normandy Crash Site DLC), but I was curious: is it possible to change the uniforms your crew is wearing? It would be cool if your Cerberus crew changed to Alliance uniforms like Shepard if you chose to destroy the Collector Base.

I think that something similar to this could probably be done via ME2 texture mods if not already.
Unfortunately though I don't think that it is possible to get all squadmembers to wear Alliance uniforms.

Would there be any way to change Ashley's default casual look to the female version of Kaidan's outfit? I hate the damn catsuit that BW made her wear

It's not possible.

If you are referring to ME2 have you tried to do a retexture via Texmod of Ashley's armor?

I know you can prematurely dump characters in your squad using Gibbed save editor, but can you edit the order in which recruitment missions are unlocked via coalesced.ini? Make post-Horizon missions open sooner, and pre-Horizon missions open later? I've figured out some things on my own (Shepard gets an Alliance uniform in his wardrobe for finding all 20 dogtags in the Crash Site DLC, Samara gets the Revenant from Morinth's apartment (warrior monk with a BFG, good times)), but I'm still new at this. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

It may very well have been brought up already before, but...

I was currently contemplating a new run of ME2 on my first madam Shepard, having Miranda as LI in mind...I know that there has been a thread where it was outlined how it "should" be made to work via gender-edit and approaching Miss Lawson after her loyalty-mission, but last time I tried that the progress would not update with her stuck on her "rain-check" remark.

Do I have to approach Miranda in all talks in her cabin with a temporarily male Shepard, or was there some other criterion to this?

Help would be much appreciated.

@DeinonSlayer
While the prior of what you desire is possible the latter is not for those four: (Garrus, Grunt, Jack and Mordin) are required to be aquired first for the game to function (though the following trick can set that out of order). It is a rather simple edit though. Navigate to the section of the G.M.E.2.S.E.: Plot --> Henchman --> Flags and check the tab "Miranda in Alternate Appearance" This will completely unlock the galaxy.

You can also check this thread though it seems to be only relevant if wanting to have Legion as one of the first squadmates.

@Chasshan
You may want to checkout the description in the this youtube video as it should explain how to accomplish this.

Hmm could be that it is located in a similar pcc file name.

You could try loading PCC:
OnlyLoadLevel BioD_Exp1Lvl4_Stage1_2_LOC_int

And see if it will load the model; however I can make no guarantee.


Also this is a DLC model; have you disabled the DLC?


Hmm... I've tried it, but with no effect. I checked the PCC afterwards and it didn't appear to contain any meshes in relation to it.

I know I haven't disabled the DLC, since I've been able to steam in Liara for squady purposes at the time, and when I've taken the tweaks to get the meshes in out.
Could it be to do with the material override or something? Because the head and torso simply don't show up. <_<

I am sorry I think I may have caused nothing but confusion. By disabling DLC I was meaning following the last steps in this. It is not so much disabling DLC as to make it unrecognized by the game but give no error message and still allow it to be played. Doing this should still allow streaming in Liara to work.

This is the only thing that I can think of since he is inside one of the pcc's inside the dlc and dlc information will always override anything that is duplicate in the Coalesced.ini with the information that is in the DLC ini's. Which means that his model and material overrides will lock to being on his person and not be accessible for Shepard -unless the DLC is "disabled".

Just a note: making the DLC ini's look like this: "****.org.ini" works better than the way it is spelled in the link.

No worries. I think a combination of 'disabling' the DLC and using the PCC BioD_Exp1Lvl5_100Stronghold instead of BioD_Exp1Lvl4_Stage1_2 has corrected any issues, because it's finally working seamlessly now. Thank you so much! Seriously. Without yours and others effort for making tuts and helping on here I would have no clue on how to mod ME2. So again, thanks. <3

re: Above, thanks for the reply, Phoenix. I'm sorry to hear that.

Is it possible to modify Coalesced.ini (or use Gibbed) to unlock Retrain Powers at the same time as Advanced Training? It doesn't make much sense story-wise for it to be locked until after Horizon, and it makes allotting skill points for the first 1/3rd of the game a pain to manage.

As best I can tell, the two relevant entries are:

Retrain Powers:

Research=(PlotName="Tec_Retrain",TreasureId=5458,UnlockId=-1,RMode=4,ChoiceEntry=(srChoiceTitle=93965,oChoiceImage=none,srChoiceImageTitle=93965,srChoiceDescription=155053,ChoiceColor=3))

And, by comparison, Advanced Training:

Research=(PlotName="Tec_LoyaltyPower",TreasureId=5459,UnlockId=-1,RMode=4,ChoiceEntry=(srChoiceTitle=93965,oChoiceImage=none,srChoiceImageTitle=93965,srChoiceDescription=155053,ChoiceColor=3))

Both appear under BIOUI -> SFXGame.SFXGameChoiceGUIData_Research. Any help would be appreciated.

Sorry it has been awhile since I ran ME2; currently in ME1 again. When is the advanced training unlocked?

@TimeShadow
What method are you using to edit the Coalesced.ini?
Are you using the C. Editor or the Notepad++ method?

Advanced training is made available immediately when the tech lab is opened - when you recruit Mordin. Retrain Powers is unlocked after the mission on Horizon, after the first four recruitment missions.

This will unlock the galaxy as a side effect but also make the RP ability available from the get go.

@TimeShadow
Did you impliment the blank armor codes and the casual toggle listed in the tutorial into the C.ini?

Hi all, is it possible to swap Ashley's model for Liara's model in mass effect 1?

The reason I ask is that I want to make a tribute for Liara, but using this scene, which to my knowledge only occurs with Ashley:



It seems that someone has achieved this already, possibly by doing a retexture via Texmod of Ashley's armor (I saw this posted above a while ago but I'm not sure if it applies here)?

I have no modding experience, so any help would be appreciated :D

Here's the link to the video containing the modded scene at 1:17 to about 1:20 seconds in:

I am sorry didn't know.

@xxjusthumanxx
That scene exists for Liara -it is the scene with Liara before the Liara romance in ME1.
