I've been working on a way to get the high resolution textures that the community has been making and add them directly into the game files without having to use TexMod. The advantage of doing it this way is that there is no massive loading time before starting the game. You should theoretically also be able to get better performance in game.
This is the BSN project page for the mod.
This thread is also for discussion on the ME3Explorer tool called Texplorer that also works for ME1 and ME2.

NEW!
The current version of the mod has been updated. At the moment it's still considered in beta but all the functions are now in working order. As usual, any issues can be reported to me, either through this thread, a PM or on the project discussion board.

FAQ
Q. Origin wants to update my game. What's going on?
A. When Origin starts it checks your game files. Because this mod directly modifies those files, Origin thinks they're corrupt or out of date. Therefore Origin wants to re-download the original files. To stop this from automatically happening just go into Origin and deselect "Automatically keep my games up to date" in the Application Settings menu.
Q. Why doesn't the installer work?
A. Could be a few reasons. Look at and read the message it gives you. I've tried to explain in the error messages what could be causing the problem. If you're really confused then just post here and I'll try to help you out.
Q. Why doesn't the switcher work?
A. Could be a few reasons. You must install the mods before you can use the switcher. It won't magically install it for you. Other than that look at the error messages and tell me what they say.
Q. Can I still use TexMod?
A. Absolutely. There's only 1 limitation. If you're trying to override a modded texture then you'll have to switch back to the original version of the texture before TexMod will register it. That's what the Switcher is partly for.
Q. Is it REALLY necessary to make backups of my files?
A. Yes. Yes. Yes. This mod isn't like TexMod or the Cinema Mod. It directly mods your game files. If something goes wrong you must have your original files or you'll have to re-download everything.
For any other questions please don't hesitate to post a comment here, on the project page or send me a message.
Future Inclusions:
Environment textures, rest of the henchmen, more NPCs, more textures for Shepard.
Possibly add a TexMod manager to easily select the mods you want with TexMod.

Retour en haut
- but it still seem to think your mods are installed - is there a way to demod this or would you think i need to redownload or reinstall to get a clean default version for a backup?
