Hello.

I recently started playing ME2 just today and I have encountered a little problem that annoys me. It's the orange notification window that pops up in the lower right corner as you loot something or get paragon/renegade points etc. The notifications disappear too fast for me to make any sense of them. I can barely read one or two words before they disappear which is really annoying because I have no clue why the notification pop up or what it says. 

Is there a solution for this to make the notifications last a bit longer? i reckon more people should have problem with this and that it should have been adressed to after almost 1,5 years since the release. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

This is the first time Ive seen anyone request they stay on screen longer, normally they ask for how to get rid of them entirely.
Editting the coalesced.ini file is how you would theoretically do it. I havent tried so cant confirm. Look in the Modding is Possible threads for instructions on how, and what applications you need to do it.

Oh I see. Well as a new player I would like to understand what I get and what it does which I suppose the notifications are for. I suppose I'm just a really slow reader ^_^ Thanks for your reply though, I will check that thread out right away.

Did you find a way to make the notifications stay longer?

My thought as posted on MIP3 should work for this problem.

Though at current (due hard drive space needed for other things- ME2 deinstalled last month) I can make no absolute 100% guarantee.

Here's a quick solution thanks to phoenixofthunder:

You need to get Mass Effect 2 Coalesced Editor: http://social.biowar...m/project/1854/
Start the editor:

Look for section: [SFXGame.BioHintSystemBase]

Under it locate these variables:
m_NotificationData=

Search this line of text out to you see this:
DisplayTime=#.#

Change the number higher and that should increase the display length.
=================================================
Here is an example:
Default:
m_NotificationData=(nmType="JournalChange", Priority=100, bCanBeMerged=false, srTitle=325623,
srSubTitle=325623,srBody=325624,srAltBody=325624,DisplayTime=5.0,
sImageResource="GUI_GlobalIcons.Notifications.JournalUpdate_256")

Double the time here:
m_NotificationData=(nmType="JournalChange", Priority=100, bCanBeMerged=false, srTitle=325623,
srSubTitle=325623,srBody=325624,srAltBody=325624,DisplayTime=10.0,
sImageResource="GUI_GlobalIcons.Notifications.JournalUpdate_256")
 
That should at least double the length of the messages' display.smilie


In the end, choose "Commands -> Rebuild Coalesced"
