Can you fix the Allers hair clipping at the part the same way you fix the default Jane hairstyle (editing the LOD vertices)? Or is the issue caused by something else?

Yep, you can.

If you mean that gap, merylisk, than I can confirm. Just fixed it by modifying a few LOD #0 Vertices. The solution is courtesy of Dizzig, who posted it under ELE08's blog.

Open the LOD #0 Vertices and set the Z-value of the following numbers to 175:

256 to 263
302
311
338
339
360
361
362
380 to 390
480 to 485

That should do the trick.

Awesome, thank you!

Edit: Woo, top! Now I have an excuse to post some non-spoilery shots of Anja's run through the EC. :happy:

I know I've posted a similar screen before, but I've tweaked Anja's face since then and ~whatever~, I love this shot. Shepard actually looks happy here.

@Rikketik:
I find it hysterical that the Normandy still has its bar and even a new
poker table when the Alliance supposedly stripped the cerberus aspects
of the ship and 'fixed' it to military regulations. I agree that there
really isn't any time for shep to stop and unwind. Everything is happening
back to back and the largest breather she seems to get is visiting the
citadel and buying fish. Bioware did a pretty good job of spacing out
the crew moments, I think. Thane and Jacob still hurt to look at when
they're still sitting just there like lumps with no new dialogue,
especially for people who romanced them.

30.1...It's
good to see David doing well after his torture. I let his bastard brother
squirm and didn't tell him Archer was safe when I finally met up with
him. Gavin's suicide was unexpected but I didn't shed any tears over
him.

I still love your sheps eyes!

Thank you!

The poker table (which is completely new if I'm not mistaken) is also weird when you consider that the bridge, the former armory and even the captain's quarters look only halfway finished with cables and crates everywhere. The lounge? Completely done. Makes you wonder where the Alliance's priorities lay, doesn't it? 

I do believe Traynor said the Normandy was supposed to become Anderson's base of communication or something like that. Perhaps he ordered that poker table to be placed asap?

As for Gavin, well, I didn't feel sorry for him, but I was glad he at least showed genuine remorse. And for some reason I really like his voice...

@Diego: I like it, actually. She looks perfectly normal for anime style. No crazy over sizedchest or illigitamate skimpy armor. Besides, who said Shepard couldn't be sexy?

I agree with this. Even ingame the default N7 armor looks very formfitting and her breasts don't seem much bigger than they are ingame (while wearing armor at least). Of course, her pose is titillating but at least it's not as blatant as with Liara, who squeezed her breasts so tight between her arms that they looked like they were gonna pop.

Control is my favorite ending story wise, always has been. I won't be able to experience the new EC ending for it until I finish Cora...Destroy was really the only fit for Vanessa and
I still can't justify Synth even with starbrats arguments but....*spoiler* *spoiler* Argh be july 4th already so I can talk about EC and get it off my chest!

Synthesis will probably always be my favorite, moral objections be damned. But to be honest, I think they were all quite well done in the Extended Cut.

As for Major "Big Ben" Coats, I think he was a cool character and I was pleasantly surprised he was even in the game, but sadly his ingame time didn't allow for much character development. Because of that I don't know if he would make a good squad mate, although I could have used another sniper in my playthroughs with Kaidan as the VS.

Workers needed some motivation.

Now it just needs some music, a pole and an Asari dancer in the middle of the room.

[thompsmt]

On that statuette, I'm not much of a fan of that style of art. I might order one, though.

It's a bit of a funny comment on the lounge though. I've worked in a shipyard, and one of the first things brought on line actually was the crew's mess so they could eat aboard (less of a break on the workday), and lounges were used as workspace in port, so both got on line fairly quickly. However, that table would need to have a cover.

I wouldn't want that nice felt getting ruined by someone writing all over it.

[Hadeedak]

"Oh, it's you."
All jokes aside, I was pretty freaking giggly over the extended cut. Since we're spoilerfree, I will only say NO REGRETS OVER BEING QUEEN OF THE REAPERS. I've yet to see the others, but control was fan-freaking-tastic. Much. Much better. Also, much Hale love.

And it was nice to hop back on Esperanza. She's still the BEST Shepard out of my flock, and in my opinion. Heh. I kid, I kid.



That being said, i had a moment to hop back on Yoshimi --really excited about her playthrough again.

It's great to see options I missed.

Missed like that rocket. Pfeeeeeeeee.

RETURN OF RANNOCH'S STEALTH ROCK. And with that, I ride off into the sunset again, vowing to spend some time around here someday.

About Big Ben, I remember the first time you see him in game is the shuttle where you can hug Anderson. BB mentions during that cut scene that he's been sniping from the clock tower. He might have been an interesting squad mate but I like that he wasn't. He was an iconic character fighting on earth in a position Shepard would have taken in a heartbeat. IT's also nice toe be able to somewhat relate to a character who has been fighting back on earth, holding the line and proving shep isn't hte only skilled soldier fighting the reapers.

There can never be too much Anja! And after working so hard to tweak her face there's nothing wrong with posting more pics.

@IchikoSakkura:Love Akira. she looks very Asian and her name suits her whether she is or not.

@Rikketik: I don't think anyone is complaining about the lounge being finished first. And Anderson is so high up the chain of command, former councilor or adviser, that if he wanted a hot tub on the Normandy he could probably have it.

I like how Gavin's character was presented. He wasn't anything close to an anti-hero but he wasn't entirely a villain either. He was still humanized in that he cared for his brother and wasn't inherently violent or evil on purpose. His down fall was being the sort that becomes so wrapped up in his work that he develops tunnel vision and forgets about the close reaching consequences of his actions. He never realized what he had done until Shepard pistol whipped him and forced Gavin to look closely at his crying brother's face. An intellectual genius yet an extremely stupid man at the same time.

As for the synthesis ending, I'm not saying I have moral issues with it exactly. Sure it would come with enraged people over a forced change but no matter what Shepard chooses in the end everyone in the galaxy will be forcefully affected by it for good or ill. Maybe it's my own human fear of extreme change, especially biologically, that repels me from it. (biological horror always makes me squirm for some reason). But all of the scenarios I think of that could happen in the aftermath of synth just don't sit well with me. For one instance, what if the new ability links people the way the colonists on Feros were? Linked together in a way that allows the sharing of thoughts and experiences?

Individuality would eventually be lost and this seems to be a stated weakness throughout the game. In the geth it's a brick wall in front of their trending evolution and is a driving force of the reapers that allows them to exist the way they are. Even if the space squids argue to be individuals I still swear by the fact they are a colony of programs in one body (this coming from conversing with Legion about Sovereign in ME2). Plus my early theory of the reapers being a failed synthesis project just screams don't do it to me. I basically reject the idea of becoming Starbrat's next lab rat. I hope I'm making sense here.

Plus biologically how could the two states exist simultaneously for an indefinite time? Wouldn't the laws of nature eventually scrub one set of Coding/DNA from the body as one becomes superior over the other? Javik also mentioned an organic race which melded with machines that eventually performed body snatchers. Granted, there's no way to know if they were originally separate minds from their 'hosts' or simply cybernetic parts which could make a big difference in the synth ending.

:PI'm over thinking this aren't I and wound up sharing more than you probably want to know, hah! But I love story writing/telling so I'm always thinking of 'what if' scenarios and grasping at the different angles of things, the good, the bad, and the ugly. But I am babbling now...

:happy:As for why I like Control so much, there's just something that always sends chills up my spine when I see the reapers retreating back into space. Like the war is taking a breath but it's not really over with the looming machines continued existence. It doesn't really feel like a victory. The music seems more haunting as well.


Walls of text deserve a pretty flycam shot.


Edit: Speaking of EC...I need to find a new Sig banner to show I approve of the new endings. Marauder Shields has done his due.

@ razviolet:

About the lounge: it's not so much complaining as just thinking it's illogical. The bridge, the CIC, the war room -- that's were everything happens but those sections aren't completely finished yet. A less important section of the ship, the lounge, is. I just thought that was weird, although it seems to be a case of "reality is unrealistic" if thompsmt is to be believed. 

As for the Synthesis ending, well, you make some good points, but I do think you're overthinking it.  There are no indications everyone's minds become linked and neither is there proof that individuality is lost. Also, the synthesis the Reapers are the product of is a whole different kind of synthesis that Shepard is able to choose for. Reapers are each a whole race turned into mush which is then (somehow) used as raw material from wich the Reaper is build. In the Synthesis ending, however, each individual just becomes part organic and part synthetic.

When it comes to storytelling, I'm a fan of Bellisario's Maxim:

"Don't examine this too closely."

Or as TV Tropes explains it: 'An unashamed admission of handwaving details unnecessary to the enjoyment of a show, and an exhortation to not let the obsession with those details get in the way of the story.'

So yeah, I could focus on all the details and everything that doesn't make sense (because I still think there are plotholes left) but that would just ruin the ending for me... But that is just how I see it.

@razviolet, who cares if you're over thinking it? It's interesting to think about! And I agree with pretty much all your points, btw.

[raziel1980]

 As usual Lots going on around here while I was a t work....good thing it's Friday so that means I have the rest of the weekend off! 

@KarryTyrell : Athena is looking awesome and her prgress through the game does seem very natural...GREAT JOB! <3

@demos99: more awesome shots of Jennifer : the order you do them in is quite interesting maybe cause I primarily romance Garrus... his LM always seems to be the second one I do...I actually have a pretty good setup for how I do each of the missions in Act 2...so i can get his LM and the romance/'smirk' screenshot started before doing the collector base.

@rikketik: nice post about the LOD vectors...will have to try that with Denise once I get back to doing her game...

@Tup: AWESOME shots of Tiia's endgame as usual...she looks tough as nails but still completely cute as a button! 

@Greggy : Karys: is quite a looker...I don't know if you've ever mentioned her class or background other than her being a Liara-mancer.

@MizzzNaaa: I got one word for ya :  AWESOME! and you and I also share similiar thoughts where the game is concerned.

@razviolet : ahh...still interesting though...it's something one of my 2 remaining renegon femsheps may try n do as I know one who may not like tali as much as she does Legion to begin with....

@IchikoSakura : Your Aika is quite cute...and I do see quite the oriental descent from her in her design...nice job and please continue to post more of her! 

@merylisk : More Anja is NEVER good thing...as you know I am full and total support of my fellow Vanguard -femsheppers and the fact she's a redhead just adds to her sexiness!  <3( p.s. i see the tweaks you made and they look lovely).

@Hadeedak : None of my femsheps have done 'control' yet...but after seeing it on youtube...I too have ZERO PROBLEMS making them 'Queens of the Reapers' either...but I won't personally expierence it or any of the other endings til I finish Allison's  NG + in which she will pick 'destroy'.

Speaking of which more of Allison...

hmmm...rachni problems again....


NOVA Smash!!! 




Allison's second different/major choice change in the game : Killing the rachni queen after saving her in ME 1.

I agree with your assertion about Mr. Big Ben, Shepard and squad can't be the only ones kicking ass in the ME universe. He doesn't exactly get any character development, so there's not much to base an opinion on.
I just thought he was badass in that trailer, and his VA is pleasing to my ear holes

I have actually come to like synthesis with the additional content, not to say I still don't have issues with it, but I see the appeal.  It might just be they put a shine on it and that's my emotions talking.  Whatever.

Here's how I look at it, and this does not cover the initial ethical implications, because if someone has personal issue with those, there's not enough explaining in the world to get around it.  This is in regards to the after effects.  I don't think it can be taken too literally.  That's when you get all sorts of awkward questions and things that don't make sense to us...now.  I think the entire point of it is that life in the galaxy has been brought to a higher level of intelligence, capability and understanding that is beyond what we can comprehend currently.  As such, it's purely speculative.  The green effects, circuitry on everything, I see as a visual representation of something that can't really be shown.  How do you illustrate something that doesn't exist?  They had to make it look visually different somehow, to represent the microscopic makeup of life changing into something new and beyond what is currently possible, and in a graphic medium.  So yeah, taken absolutely literally, it's a bit ridiculous.
Yeah I'm breaking out this old chestnut. Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
I'm totally okay with a bit of handwaving.  Overanalyzing tends to drain the fun out of things for me.  Some people love doing just that! Whatever floats your boat mate, I say.  

Still a bit torn between destroy and synthesis to be honest.  I'm torn between which one I personally prefer, so trying to figure out which one Shepard would pick, given her history, current mental state and present knowledge...guh.  I don't know yet.

Control was mega-creepy, but I also found it kind of appealing.  I blame Jennifer Hale for this.

The babbling must be contagious.

I can relate. When I played the game for the first time, I didn't really have to think about it, I almost immediately chose Synthesis. But when the EC was released and I knew my EMS was high enough to get the best ending... well, I already knew what the implications of Destroy would be and in the end I just couldn't do it. I said it to myself a million times: "You WILL choose Destroy, you WILL choose Destroy, you WILL choose Destroy", but in the end I still cracked under the pressure and chose for Synthesis anyway, with the excuse of "this was the first original ending I saw, so it should also be the first EC-ending I will see".

I do not regret it though, because Synthesis turned out to be quite beautiful. <3 Still, I also want to see Destroy sometime. I just don't know if I will be able to make that choice.

Agreed about Jennifer Hale by the way. I already thought she took voice acting in video games to a whole new level in her last conversation with Garrus ("And if I'm up there in that bar...") but hearing her talk in the Control ending... wow. Just wow.

Though I think...

spoiler, highlight to view
Tricia Helfer, who narrated Synthesis
/end spoiler

...was not far behind. If Hale is the queen then she is the princess... or something like that.

Edit: Oh, and my save game is corrupted, dammit. <_< It won't autosave anymore and all new save files are automatically corrupted unless I overwrite an earlier save. I opened the career with Modio and for some reason the new save files do exist, it's just that they are completely empty, i.e. 0 KB big. I've had the same problems with ME2, when I just couldn't save anymore when the size of the "container" file was bigger than, I believe, 1MB. Maybe this is the same thing? I will now try to start a whole new game (and thus make a new "container file") and just insert my latest save file from the original container into the new one. I hope that fixes things.

Reality is always unrealistic and stranger than fiction. You tell someone one thing and they will tend to believe the opposite for the sheer sake of disbelieving. I could rationalize the lounge was the easiest to fix since the bar was already in place and the only real change was the poker table being thrown in and glass sidings put up to section off the room. The rest of the ship was going through extensive rewiring, if the missing panels are anything to go by, as the Alliance was in the process of stripping any semblance of Cerberus from the systems and scrubbing superficial markings...Or Anderson just really wanted a poker table and a nice lounge for some R&R:P.

As for the Synthesis ending, well, you make some good points, but I do think you're overthinking it.

It's true the synthesis ending doesn't say exactly what will happen but I'm basing my theories within the ME universe and the proofs it has provided in similar scenarios. I refuse to believe Starbrat has suddenly figured out how to perfect synthesis through the amazing powers of the crucible. thompsmt maybe, Bellisario, or both?

When it comes to storytelling, I'm a fan of Bellisario's Maxim:

"Don't examine this too closely."

I see what you mean by saying some things simply don't need to be explained and too much information will bore a person or sometimes cheapen an experience (The keepers nonexistent information on where they came from (enslaved race or only bioengineered?) and how they work about the citadel and are produced from within it are all perfect examples). All I'm basically doing is coming up with my own versions of the story which I'm pretty sure is what the writers intended with the ME endings. I'll add that EC had a fair balance of closure and speculation which should have been the goal from the start.

My amazing browser crashed again so I lost everything I had so painstakingly taken the time to type in reply. That will teach me to put everything into word first. It was so good too *sniff*

@merylisk: So much speculation even after the EC. Someone at bioware must be rolling in their grave. (no mean spirited undertone intended)

@raziel1980: I have a shep, my most renegade one, that I'm planning to have side with the quarians because of her own rationale:devil:. I can't play the same shep a million times or I will become bored out of my mind.

Allison likes to smash things doesn't she<3

@ELE08: I'll agree synthesis had a better argument in the EC...Your points are just as valid as mine and I like where you're going with them. And here I have to stuff a sock in my mouth or spoilers will come spilling out.

I choose the endings based on the shep I'm currently playing as well. Pick your poison I say. And, uh-oh. I might have started a babbling epidemic 

Modifié par razviolet, 30 juin 2012 - 04:28 .

[Rikketik]

Well, one likes to focus at the details while the other just wants to enjoy the ending and don't think too much about it. Either way is right. I think BioWare provided us with a lot more closure with the EC but at the same time they tried to keep some things vague just so that people would think about it. And it seems it worked. The current endings are still heavily debated, but now in a more positive way and not in the "point out everything that sucks" way.

Sucks about the browser crash by the way. Do you use FireFox? If so, then I can recommend the "Lazarus" add-on. It basically saves (almost) everything you write for a few days so you won't ever accidentally lose your text anymore. And yes, it's browser crash-resistant. It has saved me from a lot of frustration since I began using it. You can find it here: https://addons.mozil...ery/?src=search

Oh, and my save game seems fixed. I just hope it stays that way. If there's something I hate, it's corrupted files when I don't know what it was that corrupted it. Always makes me paranoid.

I wish I had the money for that Bishoujo statue. The improvements make it look much better.

Big Ben... or rather, Major Coats. Yeah, I like him. He's cool.

Discussing what choice to pick is coming dangerously close to EC spoilers, but I will say this. Control became very appealing. Even, or especially because of, the Renegade version.

My vid of Control. Warning, massive spoilers!

I still can't get past the immoral implications of the Synthesis choice, no matter how much of a shine is put on it.
I know that's my own personal issue. I don't begrudge anyone else that picks it.

But, ultimately, I'll probably end up choosing Destroy. We'll see when Kendra's NG+ run gets there.

Wait, you are asking, a New Game Plus run? Yep. EC made the game playable for me, so I started a NG+ with Kendra. Here's a few shots. Nothing spoilerish from EC at all. I can get away with five pics, right? Oh, and best of all, the Renegade scars import on NG+! Clicken to embiggin.

Kendra looks nice as always.  Quite intimidating too. And a bit scary. 

I've been wondering, though: do your scars actually get worse if you go renegade in ME3? Or is that purely something you'll have to import from ME2?

A few shots from Berlitz, the aftermath of From Ashes and one from Sur'kesh:

Thanks. That's the effect I was going for.

Nice pics!

The scars don't import in from ME2. I don't know exactly why. We were told that they would, but... *shrug*. So, to answer your question, yes, you can still get the scars in ME3, provided you didn't repair them in ME2.

They DO import in for a NG+ game, which is great. I am looking forward to seeing if they get any worse. I finished her first run without having full Rep / full Renegade bars.

I was - like you - excited like crazy to play the EC - but Reyna HAD to chose again destroy no matter what. 
Only a dead reaper is a good Reaper  
Since Im sharing the feeling of EC like the most of you  I MUST play all of my Sheps through  now ! 
@raziel1980 Allison is great - I really love her.  
@Syrdeth Kendra is rocking the scars so well - Nice to see her back in action, too 
@Rikketik Berlitz has such stunning eyes :happy: 

So if I havent been hijacked:ph34r: - her's the return of Reyna.
I did not change the saves or anything - after noticing that I had too much saves and at her playthrough always the
last save has overwritten the one before <_< 
So I started at the last possible one in the Citadel before Thessia - and I am happy with. Got the feeling for my sweety Paragon ( 85 /15 ) back.

Reyna is the only one I like the formal casual wearing. She is chosing it to look a bit more .. grown-up. A lot of People underrestimated her about her teenager appearance.
 

 

On Thessia 

 

Is this little smile - huh ??  
 

looking for the artifacts to activate the beacon

@Tup3xi *giggles at the boobs comment* They have and some people/men prefer always to point that feature out:P How did you manage making Tiia so cute - I'm in love especially to her little nose   

What can I say... Facial structure 9 for the win!

I think she succeeded.

Alright, time for some proper comments.

@Raziel Allison's still stunning, but the lighting in the rachni mission does make for better screenshots than many other places. That dark lighting and the angry face seen from over Grunt's shoulder makes Allison beyond stunning.

@Syrdeth NG+ as a Vanguard is ridiculously awesome. I'm almost certainly going to delete Kira's NG+ so I can.. DO IT AGAIN Kendra looking as gloriously scary as ever.

@Rikketik Berlitz is her name? Nice, very reminiscent of Denise from earlier in the thread.

@ELE stunning work as always. A L W A Y S.

@Hadeedak yay, Yoshimi. You'll have to share that facecode one day so I can twiddle with my adept Heledd. Can't quite get her right in ME3 and I could probably reverse engineer her from Yoshimi. Okay, that sounded almost scarily Antaran (MoO3 reference for those of you scratching your heads ).

@Merylisk oh dear, does this mean pictures of a bloodied and bruised Anja will surface soon Thanks for the kind words about Karys, and I agree. Most of the time I hate that hairstyle, it just works on her.

@KaryTyrell Athena looks stunning in ME3, a good progression from great through gorgeous to outright glorious.

@demos99 look forward to seeing the lovely Jennifer in ME3

Moar Karys! As has been pointed out, I neglected to outline her story/background. Soldier, Spacer, War Hero. I tend to gravitate to that background, the tragedy of the other two seems a bit forced at times. I played SWG and it seemed as if every single person had "my parents are dead so I hate the rebels/empire" in their bio, so I prefer the chance to talk to Hannah in ME1, get the email from her in ME2 and the warm fuzzy of Hackett telling me she's alive/promoted in ME3. Sole Survivor is another tragedy background, ruthless seems to only really fit with Earthborn (at least in my head), so again War Hero tends to rise to the surface

Pics!

The by now required dark lighting shot from the end of a nightmare


Karys has a sad. In the shuttle thinking about Eden Prime the first time around.


Squinting in the red light. Don't know how Mr Cortez puts up with it.


Not really taking in what Liara's saying. She's so cute, even when she's babbling. Sorry? What was that?


And now she's got the omni-tool out.


Apparently she's gone to specsavers and is trying out green contacts. Or something.

Well, Jennifer's had a fairly tumultous 24 hours of it recently. First, she got so caught up with taking down sundry Eclipse & Blood Pack mercs and fixing paranoid VIs that she totally forgot to feed her fish and ended up having to flush their corpses:


Then, when she went to Ilium to re-stock with Paddle-jacks, Liara seemed more interested in pursuing the Shadow Broker than picking up with their relationship and Jennifer had to remind herself that while, from her POV, only a few weeks had passed since she and Liara had been separated, a full two years had elapsed for the Asari and Liara's talk of "a friend" kind of implied that she may have met someone else while Jennifer was dead.

Confused, back on the Normandy, Jennifer started spending a lot of time with Thane; his spirituality and stocism in the face of his own mortality speaking to something deep within her (Jennifer had once told Ashley that she'd 'been in a lot of foxholes') and before she knew it Jennfier was telling the Drell that she had feelings for him:


And then - pow! - next thing you know, it's all holding hands and staring soppily at each other:


So, now, Jennifer's got her fish back:


but something's changed in her cabin:


At least, that's how I'm head-canonning this sudden and abrupt (apparent) change in Jennifer's romantic feelings.

I guess it kind of helps that Thane's fate in ME3 is already sealed so there's no long term hope for their relationship. Now, there's still time to reload an earlier save and have Jennifer tell Thane that she can't replace his wife but I'm just wondering how easy it is to rekindle Liara's romance in ME3 once Thane's dead, because that who I want Jennifer to end up at the end so if it's possible/easy then I'll play this narrative out and see how it differs from the original Jennifer 1.0 story (where she remained faithful to Liara) but if it's screwed then I guess it's gonna have to be re-load time. Anyone got any advice?

Thanks for the compliment , but she is a Vanguard  
The sniper rifle she isjust ... wearing mostly * 

Kary is so stunning with her BIG BIG Eyes - no wonder Liara is not really concentrated and needs the Omnitool:lol: 

Thx @Tup3xi   

@demos99 Pheww hard to say - poor Jennifer. Chiara has the same problem with Kaidan - so I can't give any advice.
Will see what happened after Thanes heroic death.

Oh my goodness - I just did  the EC with Mel and chose the Synthesis ( she is 90 % Renegade ) and - meh - still have teary eyes *sniff*
Anyway - one thing is clear - they did a damn good job with the EC ( and all the fans demanding some answers, too )
It had could be there before Im sure....then it has been the most perfect game ever. 

However Reyna adn the last pics from Thessia 

We deserve a chance ... 

 

You going down Bastard 

 

O_O = this is a huge canon aiming on me... 

 

Losing this fight and a lot more ...
