I had performed a repair install after the latest multiplayer DLC. The ending played out the same as cfs3corsair's issues above. Tried wavion's installer and got the "Default.sfar (EC) is incorrect size!" error. Manually installed MEHEM and everything worked fine.

In summary:
-Manually reinstall after repairing game
-Wavion may need to fix his installer

[cfs3corsair]

I reinstalled MEHEM to do a DLC repair like Wwinters99. Then again... it was after Cronos station. Since MEHEM was already running prio to cronos, it shouldnt have been a problem... unless the installer resets crucial flags. Hmm...
Man this nut may be a difficult one to crack On the plus side... since Bioware is not making more dlc (?) maybe they will only update the game for so long thereby reducing comaptibilty issues

What? Now I am confused.
So if I understand this correctly, wwinters99 had no trouble with the manual install but cfs3corsair did?

In any case, if it's just the installer, I'd say we don't bother with v0.2 anymore and go straight for a new and working v0.3 installer in a couple of days.

[CommanderVyse]

No trouble. I loaded the autosave right after TIM dies and MEHEM played fine.

[DjMcfeather]

I used manual install, mostly because I was unaware of any other way to do it. No issues for me.

~~~Excellent work on the mod btw

[MrFob]

Ok, sounds good. Thanks guys.

@wavion: If/when you read this, I wouldn't worry about it now. As I said above, let's just make a new one for v0.3 after the DLC is out.

[cfs3corsair]

@ MrFob
Sorry I should have clarified. No I have not done a recent manual install; I used the quick install for all above listed recent events. But yeah not really worth worrying about at this point considering v0.3 is coming out

[wavion]

Just got home. Sounds like they snuck in a change to the EC DLC file, probably in preparation for the upcoming Citadel DLC. For the time being, I suggest that people hold off on updating ME3 to the current version until the new DLC comes out. Of course, if you're comfortable with the manual installation, knock yourself out. I will try to have my part ready for v03 as quickly as possible after the new DLC comes out.

[wavion]

Okay, so I just tried this myself. I uninstalled MEHEM, told Origin to install the new update, then ran the MEHEM installer again, and it worked fine.

So, I uninstalled MEHEM again, performed the REPAIR INSTALL, which didn't find anything that needed fixing. Tried the installer again, and it still worked.

I'm baffled, guys. For those who had problems, do you have any other mods or have you personally made any changes via ME3 Explorer?


Also, I File-Compared the EC DLC file pre/post update. The update didn't touch the EC DLC.

Hmmmm.... Nope I had zero mods. That being said, I did do an EMS hack with gibbed editor but I fail to see how that might have affected things. You gotta understand this re-install was done AFTER cronos... that could be the problem. I seem to remember the mod working when I did a manual install despite it being after cronos... could simply repair, and then reinstal MEHEM and wait for my second playthrough to play out...

[wavion]

Your save files have no bearing on whether or not the installer successfully installs. They only affect whether or MEHEM actually plays out correctly. I don't know how the EMS hack works, but the only way it would cause problems is if the file you edited was Default.sfar in the DLC_CON_END\\CookedPCConsole\\ folder. If it only edits your save  file, it shouldn't be a problem.

Well I just remembered a couple things; first, this playthrough I had NEVER had mehem installed automatically before Cronos, so that could be a big problem. Unfortunately I cant verify the problems against my other save because I went backwards in my second playthrough and now I am a long ways from the ending, haha. Chances are thats the problem though I bet. Will just wait for v0.3 and then do my second playthrough

Hey guys,

Just curious on your suggestions on where to stop my new save game in prep for citadel dlc and also v0.3 of MEHEM?

before Cerberus HQ?

Well, from what I've heard, you should lock in your romance before starting the Citadel DLC, so any time after that.

And yeah for both MEHEM and Citadel, you'll need a save prior to the attack on Cronos Base

[MrFob]

Yes, that would be my suggestion. For the Citadel DLC, you have to be "out of the ending" anyway AFAIK. Same goes for MEHEM. It should not make any difference whether or not you already played through the ending once and use an after ending save or if you stop before doing Cronos for the first time. After the ending is before the ending as they say.

I am not 100% sure that the Citadel DLC has to be played "outside of the ending" so please anyone, correct me if I am wrong there. In any case, for MEHEM, stopping before Cronos is the safest way to go.

Priestly said that Citadel can be played any time after the Citadel coup and before the attack on Cerberus HQ.  I believe Mike Gamble tweeted that it is best to do your lock-in for your romance before starting it as well, which could change the optimal time for starting it, depending on who you're LI is.

Ah, now I think I know what the problem was. Your uninstaller works by restoring a backup file correct? I manually installed MEHEM previously but tried your installer to help troubleshoot for cfs3corsair.

The uninstaller claimed success but actually did not do anyything because there was no backup file. Then when I tried to run the installer, it failed.

Sorry.

Guys, good news.

Harby has new mates for animation. The new ones can be seen in this video.





By the way, I have got lots of models to make animations right now. I've pending the attachment and the movement. Green backs can be set as well (or as wall xD).

@Wavion. How did you captured the video? In my case is not further an overload problem, seems only that camtasia studio is crazy <_<

That's lookin' frickin' sweet there Ironhandjustice; can't wait to see the finished scene!

As for mine, I used Fraps to record. The video was created in-game using the FlyCam. Unfortunately, there's no way to slow down the speed of the flycam so it's extremely difficult to get smooth camera movement. I spent the better part of a day making Coalesced.bin changes trying to adjust the camera speed, but none of the commands/parameters that SHOULD have worked did. I could change Shepard's walking speed, I could put the entire game in slow-motion, but no matter what I did, the camera still zipped through the scene like a Banshee on crack.

Just out of curiousity, do you know what change/s they slipped into the EC DLC file in this latest update?

[Staticah]

I decided to just install MEHEM before Citadel came out (playing through a save now), I noticed when I installed it through the installer that it never asked me about the Geth at all, is that normal?

No. It should immediately pop up with a question box asking if you want to install the Geth slides - before it copies any files.  If it didn't (I can't even begin to imagine why it wouldn't), try running the uninstaller, then running the installer again.

None.  After I made that comment, I tested it for myself and no changes were made to the EC DLC. At least not on mine.

[Staticah]

hmmm when I try to uninstall it says mehem installation not detected [it did install the first time with no popup], so I went to try reinstall to see what it says and it comes up with this msg:

output folder d:mass effect 3\\BIOGame\\DLC\\DLC_CON...Default sfar (EC) is incorrect size! aborting installation.

any ideas? I have all the dlcs
