@sapphy - yeah most of my Sheps wear minimal make-up cause it just doesn't fit in with my idea of battlefield preparation, lol

My Shep doesn't wear a lot of make up either just the eye makeup, I agree that Shep shouldn't look like she's going out clubbing.  

Makeup in DAO doesn't bother me though, maybe because my mage is always in a dress.

Nah, it's usually slow in the mornings during the week.

DA has a character uploader for all versions of the game (PC, 360, PS3), but you can only modify the files of your saved characters for the upload (so far as we know) with the PC version.

Anyway, bringing the thread back around to the main topic

Good Morning Kaidan!

Ah, I see  thanks! So how would I get my Shep as an avatar if I send a pic to my laptop?  (I'm a bit rubbish with PC's) I can't see an option to use one of my own pics on the change profile pic option 

[Jenova65]

And yeah, Kaiden...... He's pretty hot right! ;-)

I'll forward the instructions for making Shep your avatar.

Hey, thanks for that

The process is buggy as hell, I managed to get my test picture uploaded that I now use as my avatar but I wasn't able to to repeat the process successfully a second time.

It's one of the reasons why I bought ME for my xbox instead of computer. No toolset to play around with, and it's much more comfy to sit in the sofa and play with a bigger screen.



I love the toolset for DAO. I spent almost as much time with the toolset creating different morphs (made better preset faces or applied new faces directly in game) as in the actual game playing. Making Alistair dark haired is

 Sounds a bit too technical for me (my head is spinning now, lol) will get my 18 year old son to have a look and translate that into 'stoopid', for me

I tinkered with all my companions once I had the original morph files to play around with.

I know it's blasphemy but I also changed Alistair's hair too, I didn't care for his original hairstyle though I do prefer him as a blond.

I originally bought ME for the 360 (since the PC version was not immediately available). It was either a birthday or christmas present for the BF. We did not have our awesome flat panel yet so he refused to play much since he couldn't see very well on the old TV. Roommate played through it a few times, but that was about it.

I am 10x more comfortable with PC gaming controls to console gaming, so even though I've played some ME on the console (and KotOR), I do better with the PC versions. I blame this on playing MMOs for the better part of the last 8 years.

yea I'm more comfortable with pc controls too. I havn't really played any fps or tps games before so my aiming skills was far from good first time through the game (feels 10x more difficult to aim with xbox hand control). Had my 16 year old brother visit while I was playing and his comment was "wtf, you can pause and aim??". The pausing helped me out tons first time through. The learning curve isn't that steep though, just have to get used to it and it's quite easy.

I couldn't live without my nostromo and gaming mouse, I've used it for all my MMOs and all the single player games I play too.

I'm sure I could get used to it, but with the PC version I get to take all sorts of yummy screenshots of Kaidan in ME1, and videos of Kaidan. And sad videos of Kaidan in ME2. *thinks of her series of Horizon vids*

Hi guys!



Just to go back and grumble about the (ME1) character creator a little bit more, the presets are pretty much horrible, the noses are awful and most of the mouths are terrible too. I really hate that we don't get to rotate Shep a full 360 degrees like we do with our Wardens in DAO. My Bellara actually got a lot prettier after her import into ME2 (along with larger breasts and better posture, apparently).



Even then, it's funny how different Shep can look in game, for example, compare my avatar, which is Bellara in the character creator screen to this, which is her in Horizon IIRC:

Cerberus breast implants, yep video games are designed by men.

Ah yes, that's a MAJOR drawback with xbox. I hate not being able to take screenshots in game (and making a custom ME avatar). Screenshot function for xbox would be great, and being able to transfer shots to social page with xbox live.

 Well I am going to have to stick with the poor relation version on 360 since I don't have decent PC atm 
I don't mind really, I am comfortable with the controls cos I play on my 360 A LOT 
When I get a better PC I will re buy them all for PC too

Bellara doesn't seem very happy. I think she knows things are going to go badly on Horizon. *comforts Bellara*

I think this might have been right before the "Joker, get us out of here".

None of the noses really work, IMHO. They're either too big or too wide, or just tiny ski slope noses. That being said, I did actually find a nose that looks quite a bit like mine, hee.

Incidentally, am I the only person who sticks with the same femshep looks?

My second ME1 Shep was this one, but with blue eyes. I tried making a blonde and a redhead but didn't like how their faces came out (too different, yet too similar at the same time). Besides, it didn't feel right seeing ANOTHER WOMAN with Bellara's Kaidan. The only thing I changed about her after importing was her lipstick, and I might have filled out her cheeks a little bit. This is my second Bellara, who grew out her hair after she went through ME2 the first time, and decided to get over her addiction to red eyeshadow.

ETA: It's hard to get the eyebrows at the height you want them too! Hers are as far down as they can go, but she still looks mildly surprised in her pics.

@crimson - my teens always laugh whenever I make a new Shep - they always say "whats the point, why don't you just use the one you've got cause they all look the same anyway", lol. so I'm guilty of sticking with the same femshep looks too

[crimsonrhodelia]

@Sesh Glad it's not just me, then!

Fortunately, Kaidan says that Shep is beautiful to him, no matter what she looks like.

Right?
