Bit of a weird post after only one day, but do to circumstances i no longer have the freetime to continue modding.
I have however posted an Misc file with a quick tutorial on making mods, for both LE2&3. It also has the files necessary making a romance mod.
It also, because sleep is for the mentally sane, has all of my research into which LE3 files need to be edited for overlapping romance cutscenes to play in order (there are two points, one of them is citadel DLC).
Okay, I've installed the mod and I'm not sure if it is working. I imagined that it would bypass the jealousy dialogue, but when I get to the point of trying to build multiple relationships (starting with Miranda and Jack), but I don't seem to be able to do it. Is there something that I am missing or not understanding? The other mods I installed worked without a problem, so this one has me scratching my head. Here is what I have installed right now: Installed ME2LE Mods If anyone can help, that would be much appreciated.
You play as Femshep? If yes, you also need More Gay Romances. You should have installed those mods first before this one. If not, I'm not sure, might be a conflict. Most likely the Plot Hole Fixed mod? I use a LOT more mods than you do as well and that's the only one I didn't use. I romanced EVERYONE on my last playthrough as Femshep and didn't have any issue. Well except for Kelly and the Extended Romance Scenes incompatibility with Jacob.
I am similarly stuck. I am playing as MalShep, but both Miranda's and Jack's jealousy dialogue triggered, and I am unsure how I am supposed to get around it. Both want me to break my relationship with Tali before continuing.
Anyone know if it's too late for me to use this mod if in my playthrough. Currently Liara's picture is face down but if i reject Jack and Miranda then the picture goes face up again. Can I use this mod at this point to not have to reject Jack or Miranda?
So for my experience, i used this successfully with Jacob/Thane/Garrus x Femshep and Tali/Miranda/Jack for Malshep.
-Kelly didn't seem to work as i didn't get the cabin invitation and dance (Still trying)
-Liara didn't work as i did not romance her in ME1 but using Triology Save Editor, i can still make it happen by checking her romanced mark for ME1.
Currently trying x More Gay Romance mod but seemingly unsuccessful? As i install it later and around midway through the game, so maybe another new playthrough to see how it'd fare.
P/S: Finish the game with Malshep once and import it to ME3, it recognize Miranda as she's the one who's the last scene. Someone said the game would recognize them all so i still tweaking with it.
It does if you've locked in a romance with her. she's considered a main romance if you don't continue her romance and break up with her she will die because it unchecks her loyalty in mass effect 2. They say there are ways around this and that she can survive even being unloyal by making her squad leader and being cautious with your choices. and in ME3, she can die as well if you break up with her, don't warn her about Kai Leng, or don't gain her loyalty in ME3. again they say there is a way around this but I play fem shep and don't romance Miranda so I personally do not know if the options actually work.
I romanced her as Femshep as I installed More Gay Romance for LE2 and 3. I actually don't really know for sure. I didn't break up with her on my first encounter. On my second encounter I locked with someone else already and I didn't get a romance scene. On her final encounter she didn't die. I feel like that was the key. Just don't break up with her on the first encounter and you can lock with someone else before her second encounter. Then again I did use a ton of mods for LE3 as well, but I did not install the LE3 version of this mod due to incompatibilities.
1- What happens when importing the save to ME3 ? Like, does it even work ? Or will it be the first romance i did that become canon ? Or the last ?
2- How does it handle the paramour achievement ? For example, in the base game, romancing Liara does not unlock the achievement. But then, will romancing someone else after liara thanks to this mod unlock the achievement ? Or should I be extra carefull with my first romance choice ?
Can answer that for the most part. I romanced EVERYONE on my last playthrough. I still got Paramour achievement for sure as it counted all my other romances. If you import the save to ME3, it will treat it as you romanced them all. So if you see Liara again on 3, she still wants to rekindle as 2 didn't count and if you romanced her in 1. Garrus, Jack, Miranda, et al also were the same. I was able to rekindle them all. But if you didn't install the mod for LE3, you can't lock multiple romances. I didn't install the LE3 version as it was incompatible with most mods.
If anyone is intelligent enough to be able to understand the guide for making a multiple romance mod for LE3, please be the Hero we need, and make and share a multiple romance mod for LE3 with us <3
The "Poly romance mod" for LE3 is outdated and broken, so currently there's no multiple romance mods for LE3 that really works .-.
April 2024, can confirm that mod still works, romanced Thane and Garrus as fshep, HOWEVER for some unknown reason the Miranda romance scene triggered even though in the editor she isnt selected as a romance and i didnt do anything in game for it to happen... otherwise works great.
Same thing with my mshep,-i didnt initiate romance dialog with Miranda. I romanced Jack,launching suicide mission,- did the thing and right after it jumps to the CIC and Miranda shows up in her modded dress and a dialog wheel about is everyone ready and it jumps right to shep`s quarters and did her too...

That's sadly it from me, hope the tutorial helps!
Beyond that,
Have a day.

Defaulted to tali post-suicide mission for who you can invite to your cabin + dialogue with her. Miranda and Jack didn't mention anything weirdly
-Kelly didn't seem to work as i didn't get the cabin invitation and dance (Still trying)
-Liara didn't work as i did not romance her in ME1 but using Triology Save Editor, i can still make it happen by checking her romanced mark for ME1.

Honestly kind of depressing that we're almost in 2024 with not a single way to avoid monogamy in LE3
i only want this so i dont have to play through the game multiple times or have to use TSE over and over again
