Being the Turian bestie.

Ladies and Gentlespectres, I present to you a Config File!
Not just any config file. A file that changes your female and male Shepards to resemble the Turians!
Installation:
To use this, simply download the ini, and place it in your Documents>BioWare>Mass Effect>Config folder and replace the existing BIOGame file.
*Not a bad idea to keep a backup of the original .ini file so you can go back to your normal human shepard player model whenever you wish*.
*This can be added in the middle of a playthrough with no bugs or problems whatsoever. Any weirdness that happens as a result of changing your model is undone by switching the model back to human or to another of my many upcoming model mods.*
Uninstallation:
Every character you create will retain the Turian model so long as the .ini file is in your Config folder.
- To go back to your human Shepard model if you deleted/replaced your original config folder, the quickest way to do so is to open the BIOGame file in notepad and use the Ctrl+F function to find the line you need to edit.
- Type "Actor" and hit Enter twice to find the female and male player models denoted as 'm_femaleActorType=' and 'm_maleActorType=' respectively.
- After the equal sign, you'll want to replace the Turian text which should look like "BIOA_PRO_C.TUR.pro20_nihlus" with Shepard text! "BIOG_Male_Player_C.Human.Human_Male" and "BIOG_Female_Player_C.Human.Human_Female" under whichever gender you wish to use.
Note: You can keep either gender as the Turian if you wish to have an Turian female and a human male character at the same time.
I've uploaded this as it took me a couple hours to figure out how to make either Shepard look like anyone else in Mass Effect, I figured I'd save any of you the trouble of doing so.
However it is very easy! I will pin a tutorial comment of how to accomplish this, so please see there for instructions to do this for yourself with any character model in the game!
Warning:
- Playing as Nihilus will let you walk perfectly normal, but for some reason Nihilus doesn't actually use weapons in-game (only in cutscenes which don't count as combat), so he has no combat functionality except for biotics (which are delayed by a few seconds). On the bright side, enemies will not attack you (as Nihilus doesn't enter combat) and you can simply spam biotics at them.
- When playing as another model, ALWAYS use the quick-created Shepard, as the custom Shepard's face will return after load screens and overlap on the Turian model and look VERY strange. If you use quick-created, then you will be Turian from start to finish!
Please enjoy, and please request other models you'd like! Anything from random Asari to random Hanar!
...maybe even Sovereign ;)
