Aka, Diana Allers BeGone  ;)

 

Also Fob, if you're using the Citadel DLC, I did manage to create a mod that'll add Wrex's power "Stimulant Pack" back into the game as a true usable bonus power like it was intended to be (note that it doesn't work on Sentinels sadly, something about the Tech Armor power causes a conflict with StimPack): Stimulant Pack - True Bonus Power

God I hated that woman. Was so happy when that mod came out. :blink:

errr, not sure if i've done something wrong but, when i try and install this mod (MEHEM) and then continue with my last save game, it doesn't load the game, I'm stuck in an infinite loading screen. did i do something i shouldn't have?

At what point in the game is your last save you're trying to load?

Just after I kill the Reaper on the Quarian home world. (forgot its name) Why? should i only install at a certain point?

Probably your PCConsoleTOC.bin is not correct. Do you have other mods besides MEHEM installed? If so, you'll need to use the TOCbinUpdater in ME3Explorer.

I tried to install some mods but i gave up because i didn't understand how. If i just clean the game in origin would that work? or does that get rid of may saves as well? 

 

Never mind, cleaning the game and then re-installing it fixed the load bug.

MrFob,

 

you might not see this but, I'd just like to say. Now that I've completed the game with this mod I'll never go back to playing to original ME endings. and I'd like you to know that this Mod was so well written, made and put together that if it was in the game as standard I wouldn't be able to tell the difference (apart from the slightly iffy Normandy 360 shoot the reapers part, but it was cool so I'll it go) between this ending and the others. 

 

Thanks

    The Gearinator

 

Also I'd like you to know that if I had money, I'd be throwing it at you. But I'm skint so I can't sorry.

Just a small thing, Was it intended to not allow me to select it as another career when i choose to start a new game with a ME3 save? because i can't.

 

Edit - Doesn't matter I just changed the endgame state in Gibbed and I can now use it.

@TheGearinator: Thanks and glad to hear you got it to work. BTW, you can find a hotfix for the New Game + problem on the Nexus site. Will of course be fixed in the next version.

 

@JohnP: Good to see you are also still around these parts of the internet. :)

Good to see you're still fighting the good fight, Mr. Fob.  We still anticipate 0.5 with baited breath.

Seen as i haven't been around for any updates, do the updates like 0.4-0.5 bring content or are these updates patches for existing glitches? Either way keep up the great work dude.

Fob has always welcomed criticism of the mod. I'll actually give you a little history on the 360 shot.

 

I'm guessing it felt off because we've never seen the Normandy do a maneuver like that right? If that's the case, I too was critical of it during reviews of 0.4 before it was released. Mass Effect generally does what Star Wars does and that is, use airplane dynamics to show the movement of spaceships. But, with mass effect fields and the fact that aerodynamics have nothing to do with movement, Fob said he wanted to show this scene.

 

And yeah, I know you're a fan and not ripping on him, but I figured I'd share that bit as you're not the only one to question that scene. Once Fob explained it, I was on board but certainly the first viewing of it can seem jarring to people.

Yeah, i guess seeing the Normandy do something that i didn't see before, nor did i expect to see it just made me a bit shocked/surprised, I just thought that this mod just added in cut scenes from the previous games in a way that made it appear as though Shepard got rescued, and so when there were numerous custom scenes i was just a bit like  :o...  woah, that's cool.

 

I'm looking forward already to see what come in the next update, and I don't even know when or what's in it. Or for that matter, if its even been hinted at what's in it.

Well, apart from very small things like the improved final flyby you already saw, there won't be that much new content.

 

It'll mostly be "behind the scenes" stuff, like bugfixes and the new way to install, that was developed by JohnP for JAM. Stuff like that mostly.

 

In terms of content I do consider the mod more or less complete at this point and I don't plan on making any huge changes anymore.

 

And yea, the Normady's 360 was just a little fun thing I wanted to try. Thought it might be cool to show that this ship just has that extra edge in a fight and as Deager said, I figured between ME fields and the lack of air friction and gravity limitations in space, it would be in the realm of possibility.

BTW, I hope that it is visible in the background.of that scene, that the Turian frigate and the reaper destroyer are already getting "in position" for the next scene (which of course is a recycled original game video). So I did try to bind the scenes together somewhat. ;)

Ok nice. Something, that for me ran quite smoothly being made smoother, its nice and good to hear that even though the game is relatively old the community is still creating, and improving upon previously created stuff. It's nice to see, one of the few games that i come in to late, and it has one of the biggest, nicest and enthusiastic communities behind it. 

 

Thanks for this mod and all the help that has been offered.

 

Good luck with you future endeavours!

I have a quick question about MEHEM. I've noticed that some of the edited videos have flashing blue borders and/or marks around them at times. Also, I never am able to receive the first added email from Captain Fob. My question is: are these issues with MEHEM or are they issues with my particular game or machine? (These are minor issues that in no way degrade my enjoyment of this mod; this truly is a phenomenal mod. They are just small pet peeves of mine that I am curious about possible fixes for.) Thanks in advance to whomever decides to answer my question lol.

The first email (the one from Captain Fob of the SSV Nuremberg) is, I believe, bugged and does not fire properly.

For the little flashing issues on the movies; that's normal. You'll even notice that official ones from BW sometimes do it (breath scene comes to mind.) So, not a problem with your installation at all.

I see.  I'll have to look more closely at the official BW videos then.  Specifically what I am referring to is almost a blue border around the edge of my screen that pops up from time to time.  I only noticed after using the mod, but that could just be my fall for not paying closer attention earlier ha.  It's not a problem to be honest, as after adding the HD earth that Fob just posted on here not too long ago, it's practically perfect lol.  Thanks for the quick feedback, btw; it is much appreciated!

Thanks for the heads up.  Hopefully this is something that is fixed in v0.5, but as I said above, this is not a huge deal, just more of curiosity on my part.  And ditto on what I said above about the quick response.  I really appreciate it.

Overall the videos will have more of the borders though. Compression issue using free rad tools I think . I lucked out on mine but I'm guessing the lonnnnng 2 videos Fob had to do were more problematic.

Yea, the blue artifacts on the top of the screen are an issue with exporting the media from Adobe Premiere CS5.5. I have never been able to figure out how to fix that. Unfortunately, re-editing the videos in another editing program now would be heaps of work and I am afraid, I don't have the time. If anyone has ideas about how to get better results with exporting from premiere, let me know. The bad video quality also comes from there by the way. I have tried all sorts of settings and formats but it's just not getting better than it is.

 

As Iakus said, the fact that the first email does not fire is a bug and it is on the to-do list for v0.5.

I see, yea that makes sense.  I consider myself lucky enough that the mods work as well as they do on my machine ha.

I can't imagine all of the issues with importing files through multiple programs.  As I mentioned previously, it's really no big deal.  I just wanted to make sure there wasn't a setting that I had wrong or something else that I might have messed up on my end.  It doesn't take away from the experience in anyway; the mod really is fantastic.  I'm still amazed at all the work put in by people on here who are not being paid in way, shape, or form.  As I said, it's not a big deal; I definitely don't want to give off the impression that it's a major problem or anything, because it definitely isn't.

Thanks JTerek88. It's good when people mention bugs. Especially the minor ones because often, I just won't see them or may get sloppy on some details that I personally don't care that much about but I do want to fix any bug that can be fixed, so I appreciate it when they are noted here on the boards.

As for the videos, Deager may have software that can help. I am currently in the process of sorting all my files and getting them ready for upload to him. If we are successful, we may be able to improve the videos quite a bit. But no promises until I get my stuff together and we can actually test this.
