ME3Tweaks Mod Manager is a mod manager that supports all three Mass Effect trilogy games, as well as all three legendary versions of the games, plus the Legendary Edition launcher. Mod Manager for Mass Effect Trilogy and Mass Effect Legendary EditionĮnsure you use the correct terminology when talking about games: It’s also worth visiting the project’s Discord. For Mass Effect 2 that's here, and for Mass Effect 3 it's here.ME3Tweaks Mod Manager is an open source tool for Mass Effect Legendary Edition and original trilogy, created by ME3Tweaks. Oh, I should note that the ALOT 2017 mod packs are not themselves the work of their uploader CreeperLava, but rather he compiled, with permission, thousands of textures made by a dozen-odd other modders - full credits are on the download pages. Unfortunately at present you can't choose what you do and don't want installed, so expect a bit of rough-with-smooth if you give this a shot. This is not to say there isn't the occasional facepalm, however - for instance, why is this gun made out of one of Bon Jovi's old stone-washed denim jackets? Take a look at it in action, complete with a few screeny-wipey before and after shots:įRESH. As such, it's the armours and outfits that most pop with these mod packs, although there is perhaps an over-reliance on added nicks and dents. Textures are hardly the be-all and end-all of what makes a game look hot or not, of course, but I do find stuff like NPCs with detailed faces sat atop shirt collars that look like pixel soup to be a mite distracting. Texture packs are not in and of themselves an act of kindness - often, they wind up making the game look disjointed or more artificial, or indelicate use of sharpening and noise filters just makes them look horrendous in motion, or the modders get carried away with added details or tweaked colours that noticeably impact the game's creator-intended appearance, or NPC faces wind up looking like makeup was applied with a catapult.įortunately, looking through videos and screens of the A Lot Of Textures (aka ALOT) 2017 ME2 and 3 packs, it appears that, in the main, discretion has been exercised and the broad result is indeed the same games but sharper. For instance, with these mods that add over 3,000 replacement, higher-res, 4K-friendly textures to Mass Effect 2 & 3. Maybe revisiting them with a slightly more 2017 look will scratch your itch.
Face still feeling tired after the whole Mass Effect: Andromeda debacle? Well, the earlier, better games haven't stopped existing, y'know.
