At long last, the updated version of this mod is finally here! Thank you much for bringing to my attention any of the bugs or issues you had while playing, I tried my best to address each and every one I could, and I'm so glad to have an improved version out there for you all to enjoy!
With this new version, some characters' complexions had quite a few adjustments made to them! Here are some updated screenshots of Joker in each game and Sheploo in each game in case you are curious how they look now! And another one for Anderson's updated textures in LE2, no more weird seams yay!
I also wanted to take the time to breakdown and explain a rather complicated and prevalent issue I wasn't able to fully address with this mod update:
One of the big focuses of this update was to try and address some of the eyelash issues with Sheploo and Anderson. Sheploo (Default male Shepard) has always had pretty long lashes, which aren't always noticeable in vanilla because they were made semi-transparent and more subtle. Because this mod changes the eyelash textures to be more defined and opaque, Shepard's eyelashes became much more dramatic. With this update I was able to create more natural eyelashes for him in LE1 and LE3, but unfortunately, he uses different eyelashes textures in each game. In LE2, he uses the default female eyelash texture, which is shared among nearly all female characters. This is problematic because unless a mod comes out that alters Sheploo to use different lashes, I'd need to make every female character have shorter lashes to keep Shep's consistently short like in LE1 and LE3.
A similar issue exists with Anderson in LE1, he uses the default female eyelash texture which gives him uncharacteristically long lashes. I hope eventually there will be a mod that ports his head from LE3, like the Anderson & Hacket Consistency Mod but for LE1. Though there's no telling how long that might be from now without a compatibility framework for LE1. For now though, I tried to create an option for people who would want to keep Anderson and Sheploo's lashes from being too fabulous, while minimizing the impact this would have on the base female lash! In this version, I cut down the outer corner lashes significantly which removes it's 'wing-like' effect as can be seen on Ashley here. But makes the eyelashes of LE1 Anderson and LE2 Sheploo much less noticeable. I mean, some people might even prefer how it looks on female characters over the original, so I've made this available in the Miscellaneous files tab. Just remember to install those .mems after installing the other textures you want, to make sure they replace the original eyelashes!
Thank you once again for all your patience, kind words, and support! I truly hope you have a wonderful time playing through these games! 😊
Trying to install this after any other mod listed (required) and getting error: MassEffectModder exited with non-zero exit code: 1. This indicates something went wrong. Unlucky. Everything except this mod works well.
edit: Ok it worked, installed via ME Modder v533, before I was trying via batch so I got this error.
Is there a specific headmorph for the cover image you used for the mod or was that just custom tinkering around in the editor? ...Or is it a character I don't remember since I haven't played the trilogy in years lol.
is there any way that i can use all this for my shepard alone and not any of the npcs? i already installed the files which doesnt affect companions and stuff, but it does affect people like pressly. anything i can do?
First of all, I love your textures. As someone who loves anime and Saint Seiya, where almost every character is beautiful, this mod is perfection. (Loved the title, btw. I got it as soon as I read it).
I just want to verify if what I'm thinking is correct.
My FemShep's head is the headmoprh Customizable Default Femshep Headmorph for Legendary Edition 1-2 at Mass Effect Legendary Edition Nexus - Mods and community, so the Primitives texture is Default FemShep. I have changed Shepard's hair color to a more natural ginger (my profile pic is that Shepard), and also changed her iris and it's shown fantastically in your texture. However, when I try to change her makeup (lipstick, eyeliner, eyeshadow) for my gameplay and canon purposes on ME2, makeup stays the same as default.
So, I'd like to know if the issue here is that the Default FemShep Primitive texture allows only to change iris color or it's just that I did something wrong when customizing makeup with TSE?
in Requirements on main page: Nexus requirements: not mentioned, that mod for LE3 - Requires the Diana Allers Overhaul mod for all textures to install properly. On download page only mentions, with "See main page for details"
I installed first the ALOT.mem and then the Primitives - All in One Install (LE2). Afterwards, I installed your compatibility patch, yet as you can see in the image below, a seam on her forehead is still visible. Any solution you can recommend?
I ended up fixing it myself. Yeah. I learned to mod specifically because this texture pack is incredible and I cannot play without it, but I also can't play with that seam on Miranda. I've never modded in my life. Crazy what I'll do for a pretty lady.
Another solution is to install the Individual mod instead, and use another texture mod for Miranda. The weird thing for me, is that in the previous version of this mod, there was not seam in visible in Miranda, but in the newest version there is.
oh this mod is gorgeous. im so glad i finally got it to install (had weird game install issues, fixed it for this) the eyes are my favourite ones on the nexus, ashley looks gorgeous, kaiden is mwaaaah!!! im so pleased :3
Firstly, I love this mod! Thank you so much I am having an issue in LE1 with Anderson and nearly all the male NPCs having seams around the face and neck, has anyone found a way to address this? I am using it in conjunction with ALOT and LEUITM if that helps and I didn't see any known conflicts in the descriptions.
It would be LEUITM. The mod also affect scalp textures so it's different to vanilla, where Primitives doesn't. Only way to fix without restoring would be to manually restore the scalp textures to vanilla. Reinstalling Primitives won't help as it doesn't have custom scalp textures. I am sure that's how it works anyways.
If you do restore, just make sure to install LEUITM without the Sheploo file (this one affects all male NPCs and male Shepard) then install Primitives. But if I were you, I would just install Primitives parts that LEUITM doesn't cover. Depends on your preferences on which face you like better. This guide might help in which files to install.

EDIT: Disregard, I just saw the compatibility fix in the misc files
