There is a mod that adds all the casual outfits in the game on this site, but even though it claims to be armor only, it does insane stupid things like give you unlimited ammo (with no heat), +10 grenades and medkits, gives ridiculous war assets like Miranda 5000 points and some other crap that no one can defend. I had to get rid of it it was so bad. Can someone post a coalesced file that is properly edited to unlock all the costumes without the cheesy modifications.

[merylisk]

I can upload mine, if you'd like. It also has Flycam bindings, but that won't affect gameplay at all.

I would appreciate it merylisk if it's not too much trouble.

@Merylisk, In normal textures the outfit is colored from there. With this dress and most NPC outfits they have one mesh that applies to several outfits. Say they have 5 NPC wearing this dress and they want to have all five wearing a different color of that same outfit they use tintmap to color the different outfits instead of making five different meshes. Short answer its a lazy man's way of coloring meshes. However, this makes it harder for us to play with. Its not impossible but its really difficult to get the exact color you want.

Miranda's dress still does use tintmap (to make it red) but it would probably be easier to work with. IMO it would be much easier and simpler to use different diffs with colours without any tint maps. Depending on how many NPC's it's probably bit more memory friendly to use same base texture and use crappy quality tint maps though. In any case I blame consoles, even my phone has 2x more RAM than Xbox 360.

Tintmap information is 0 or 1, black or white, there or not there, per channel. Hardcoded which channel provides a texture with which colour, you have 0 control over this. If you have both a tintmap and a diffuse, you simply clear the channels in the tintmap to prevent them from recoloring any part of the outfit (or just the channel that controls the particular part of the texture you want to manually colour) and put the colour you want directly onto the diffuse.

NPC outfits will never have a diffuse, only a spec and tintmap. Miri's has a diffuse, it makes for a better quality texture combined with the spec. Spec alone is always a bit iffy but obviously saves space, as does the tintmap.

So, technically, it would be possible and relatively simple to make a black and white version of the purple/white dress by just editing the tintmap, no?

[meonlyred]

No, I've been working for the past week to do exactly that. If you can figure it out then by all means. It would actually be easier if I can get someone to give me the mesh/texture for the black and white dress that is already in game. And if no one can do that, then I would nice if someone can point me in the direction to figure it out on my own. People clearly know how to look up the coalesced codes, there is millions of people with coalesced downloads. I don't want someone coalesced, I already have my own modded with armor and flycam. I just want the bloody codes.

[meonlyred]

Sorry double post.

With black and white dress, do you mean Liara's or Miranda's? Seeking those packages is a problem. They both use meshes (=models) that already exist and are part of package where that you can seek freely, materials are not. That's the problem. There's no easy way around it since as far as I know no one has been able to put just any package as freely seekable in ME3.

[Ottemis]

There is a black and white NPC dress. The one unlocked however, is not that instance of that dress.
Red is looking for either the Miri version, or this black and white instance of the NPC version, seeing that one's tintmap can be manipulated as she wants.

Waaant.  That black & white dress looks much better than the default we get. Why didn't you give us that dress, Bioware? =(

Thank you! Now my Shepard looks awesome <3
Love those long dresses, hate the Allers' one.

I've been trying to do exactly the same thing - I've given up for now, though, it was making my brain hurt.

The way I find coalesced codes is explained in this post here - the thread was made for ME2 but works the same for ME3. You need to use ME3 Explorer to extract the PCC files from the DLCs first, though - you can get that here . The mesh code for that dress model is BIOG_HMF_ARM_CTH_R.CTHg.HMF_ARM_CTHg_MDL - the problem is the material override, which for Miri's dress should be BIOG_HMF_FRM_R.CTHn.HMF_ARM_CTHn_MIRANDA_Mat1a (haven't tried digging out the black/white version yet, I don't have a save close enough to the casino scenes without replaying a few hours worth of game) but when I put that into coalesced it just doesn't show up. Have tried going the Texmod route, too, but all that did was make the standard purple/white dress look - odd...

Sweet, this is helpful. Thank you. I'll see if I can't dig for it too.

Editing the tintmap for the purple and white dress, using Texmod, you mean? What exactly is making it difficult? I'm down to give it a shot... maybe with our powers combined we can figure it out, lol.

Can you maybe send me the extracted textures/tintmap you were working from? I can't extract textures from the game myself using Texmod, since my laptop keyboard straight-up doesn't HAVE the key in Texmod that's bound to "extract texture", and there's no way to reassign it. It's super annoying haha.

Wow, this is the first time I've seen this dress, my Femshep was wearing the black dress from the casual outfits.



Guess I got lucky.

Hi all.
I'm wondering if it is possible to obtain Falere's white dress for femshep?

[Reika]

I know I'm a little late to this, but I'm hoping anyone can help. I followed the directions of adding the additional dress as directed. Went for the "Helena" appearance dress, which shows up as normal in the armor locker. However in Citadel it appears as below. Granted that was still a big step up from the plastic thing before, but not quite what I had in mind.

I'm having the exact same issue here.  I have all of the various casual outfits enabled (thanks to Aristaea's post here), and then I went in and added a new line which is a copy of id=26, the White and Blue long-sleeved dress, and changed the id to 100.  When I loaded it I got the same dress but in Liara LotSB colors, just like you.  I tried changing the id to a few different ones and they all come out like that.  It's still better than the stock dress but it isn't the one I want.

I also verified that the line I added with id=100 works fine, because if I go into the locker and scroll through the outfits, it is there at the end, with the correct texture.  So this is kind of stumping me.

On a lark I just tried it changing id=60 (White and red "Phoenix" armor on females) to 100, and that worked fine, Femshep was walking down the red carpet in red and white armor.  Curiouser and curiouser.

[Ottemis]

That dress has a sort of material randomizer on it that controlls which combination of the tintmaps channels make up it's colour, they are fidgety and that seems to be their 'default state' colourscheme. You can't reliably manipulate which material you are using. I've seen it be corrupted easily in the locker as well.

If there is a solution for it, I'd certainly like to know but I personally am not aware of one.

Ah, bummer. Thanks for replying, at least I know it's not something I'm doing wrong.

[Reika]

Yes, thank you for the information. I can live with the garish color combination, far, far better than the sleezy dress.

And since this seems to be a good place to ask, does anyone know the name of the pcc file for the default dress? I'm attempting to use ME3 Explorer to replace it with the spiffy velvet dress texture someone linked to. I'm not a fan of constantly fiddling with Texmod and ME3. ME 1 & 2 were fine, 3 not so much with Origin.

[cosmic1]

I'm having a problem that I hope someone can help me with.  I loaded a coalesced file to get the extra outfits and armor.  Everything worked fine until I got to the casino in the Citadel DLC.  My dress was changed to one of those suits with the backpack looking thing on it.  How do I change to one of the dresses (even if it's the original one)?  I tried downloading the coalesced editor from wenchy, but my antivirus software won't let me open the program.  Please help me with this if possible.  Thanks.
