at some point it might be a good idea to write down a tutorial, that gives people the abilities to keep the mod up to date with the game files.

it is always possible, that later patches screw up the game files and mod does not work without making small adjustments.


Wasn't the recent word that BW were done with official patches, though...? Caught that one as far as MP went, at least, and don't doubt that statement extends to any further SP-patches as well.

normally, i would agree with you.

but my aproach is "better save than sorry".

@MrFob Ok, perhaps I'm blind or retarded but in trying to mod MEHEM 0.3 so Shepard's face is healed for the memorial scene I am unable to find any file named "BioD_End002.pcc" so I cannot edit anything in it. I extracted MEHEMv0.3 into its own directory and looked for the file and then did a search of my computer for the named file. No dice. Please help?

You were using wavion's installer-version, I take?

If so, try and open the EC-Default.sfar file via DLC-Explorer - you can access that one via current ME3 Explorer through the Tools-panel, says DLC Editor there.
Then, open the Default.sfar file via that editor - upper left panel therein - and navigate to your <ME3- folder>\\BIOGame\\DLC\\DLC_CON_END\\CookedPCConsole\\ where you'll find that one.

You can then open up CookedPCConsole and will find it as the first of the BioD_End002-entries therein. Select it and choose "Extract" to move that file to a location of your choice.

After all of that, you can access the .pcc-file with your preferred hex-editor and do the editing as per Fob's instructions. Following that, go back to the DLC Editor, with the Default.sfar still opened, choose the BioD_End002.pcc there and click "Replace". Will take a moment, and it's done.
EDIT: Be sure to save the changes in the editor, too! Upper left panel, to the right of the open-icon.

Do the TOCBin-update too to be sure and you're good to go.

Hope that helps.

BTW, Getorex , if you like the dark energy plot, you might want to take a look at MEEM, my first project. It sort of goes with that idea. I like the plot idea as well and I think it is ironic, how well it actually fits into the original endings with no more than a few VO changes.


Mr. Fob,

I would love the possibilty of still having the convo with the Starchild, but have it be a slightly edited version of your MEEM dialog, ending it with Shepard's refusal/destroy dialog, and then continung on with the normal MEHEM stuff.

Yeah, I'm back... feels good, ban has officially ended...

need to chip in here
@creapsmantic: I'm working on it, had to start from the beginning of a lot of the video stuff, my after effect was prone to crashing for some weird reason... hopefully solved now... have freed my schedule to continue working on this (among some freelance translation work I do :D)

I might have worded my displeasure/dissatisfaction with the evil overlord (consists of two letters) a tad might too strongly... mostly concerning the technical problems on the 5th (the word cheapskates might have been used)

no biggie, I'm back... I'm ill but I'm back... used the time to do some advertising and shameless self promotion over on deviantart... :D:innocent::devil:

HEEEEEYYYYY, he's back! Was wondering when they'd let you back from exile Bierwichtel. Hope you get better soon. From what I hear pretty much everyone is sick on the northern hemisphere at the moment anyway (at least everyone I talked to).
As you might have read on the last page, there's no rush with the videos. Take your time. Glad you are still on it.

@Dr_Extrem: I was hoping that with all the tutorials and info already available at the ME3Explorer forums, it should be easily possible for someone else to pick up the torch if needed. Everything else would have to be a direct explanation for a specific problem and I can't really do that until the problem occurs. Not to worry though, I am still a young and dynamic individual and do still plan to be around for a while. :innocent:

@Getorex: Yep, just follow Chashan's instructions. I thought I put all of this in the opening post for the customisation thread as well. Let me know if everyone thinks these are too unclear, I can try and improve them.

@DarkPikmin: Getting the starchild conversation back in any way (be it MEEM or the original) is problematic at best since I am using game objects, previously part of the star kid scene to get MEHEM working. So I am afraid MEHEMEEM (as iakus puts it) won't happen any time soon.

@creapsmantic: I know. I think it actually does bother a lot of people (me included) but since we have a solution already, it's just not coming up a lot anymore.

Hey MrFob, you mentioned you were making progress on the mid-low ems endings. If I am not being out of line, I am curious as to what such endings might entail. Are they kinda like mehem but without the memorial scene or the Shepard rescue? Or are the bad endings gonna be rather unrelated to what we are familiar with?

@ Bierwichel. Yeah sadly not everywhere is a free speech zone:unsure: glad to see you back though!:o

Did I say I made progress? I am actually not working a lot on it atm, as I said on the last page. While I have mapped out in my head what I want to do, I don't really want to talk about it yet because 1) I am not sure I can really implement everything I want to do (as always) and 2) if it works, I want to keep it a bit of a surprise. :)

the weather here is horrible indeed.

its freezing at -1°C max and its nearly april - and its not going to warm up.

as a bonus, its really humid in northern germany .. if you take a walk outside, you are chilled to the bone after several minutes.


on the tutorials:

its great that the files can be adjusted without greater problems. thw "good" thing is, that bioware is almost done with mass effect 3. it is not very likely, that they will bring out continuing patches.

but ... better save than sorry.

no need to rush ... its better to let the thoughts sink in and mature. the mod is nearly perfect .. it only needs some final adjustments to the vids and sounds - but that is cosmetic.

anything else is bonus.

and btw... thank you for mentioning me in your interview... ^_^:o:devil:

take your time taking in the experience on a whole...

I remember, bit more than a year ago, I actually played through ME and ME2 again... managed to do Arrival again quite literally the day before ME3's release, or so...

Welcome back!

I have a question for you ;)

Is possible to change the background of a character that has a black screen?

If it is, I have some things to share with you ;)


@All.

I'm going to be out for a week. Quite busy at work lately, but my part is making progress, though.

ooh, sounds intriguing... it all really depends on the clarity of the material... (fuzzy edges would be harder, for example)

Which reminds me, has anybody here tried to contact Jenn, Aly, Mark or even Seth? Not to mention any of the other VAs...

At least Mark should be open to the concept, he did act in a Mass Effect fan film...

Just wondering...
