Fantastic mod but I do wish there was an installation option to have Virmire trigger at its normal point. I know a lot of people like doing it last but there's some merit to doing it before then.
I think I would like an option for that as well. Sometimes it's interesting to flip around the order you do things in, and it also makes the 2nd Saren encounter more towards the end of the 2nd act, instead of meeting him at the beginning, then going the entire game before meeting him again on Virmire, followed by immediately afterward again during the finale.
I'd like to third this sentiment (almost a year later...) I understand why a lot of people prefer to save it for last, but personally I think doing Virmire after two main missions and having a third main mission before Ilos makes for better story pacing. I'd just leave the mod off, but I really appreciate the feature of delaying the Cerberus / Missing Marines mission until Feros and Noveria are completed.
For anyone experiencing issues acquiring the Cerberus / UNC: Missing Marines mission, you will need to do the following:
1.) Rescue Tali. 2.) Become Spectre. 3.) Return to Dr. Michel and let her thank you. 4.) Leave Dr. Michel's office and fast travel away and then back again. 5.) Enter Dr. Michel's office and if she is facing the terminal on the wall, speak with her. 6.) Deal with Morlan/Krogan Merc. 7.) Return to Dr. Michel and mention Banes. 7.) Go talk to Captain Anderson about Banes. 8.) Talk to Kahoku about Banes and he will give you the Cerberus / UNC: Missing Marines assignment.
A totally late response, but confirms this works for me. So it was this mod that caused this issue it seems. I found out about this on accident. Completed as instructed above and I got the mission from Kahoku just fine.
Edit: This mod not the cause, but Diversification Project as stated below.
Would it be possible to trigger virmire message even further? After noveri i would like to to rachni, cerberus etc missions and visit to citadel.. kidda like no leads so do what you can. Then you get the virmire info and go there asap.
Why the UNC:Cerberus won't active? But Admiral Kohaku keep sending me transmission about Cerberus everytime I warp into another system or cluster. I complete all the Side Quest and not even do Virmere Main Quest or Geth Incursion. And the Yangzte and Columbia not even appear in the Voyager Cluster, still had 2 other collection quest in that 2 system tho.
Great mod, certainly helps with a cohesive story progression. Thank you!
One thing I always wondered: Would you be able to also have Bring Down The Sky and Pinnacle Station be available later? Maybe also hide the systems? It's somewhat anticlimactic to have both DLCs - that were clearly designed to be played late in the game - right at the beginning.
I know most people have the problem of UNC Cerberus Not triggering, but for me it triggered BEFORE both Feros and Noveria. Running LE1DP, Completed Missing Marines, and it triggered when entering Feros system first time - first system without any other transmissions (Hackett or Nassana or whomever). Also Running Immersive transmissions and Pinnacle Station which I have completed. Could have something to do with that?
I installed the mod for the virmire timing, and would post the log and all if that one triggered early. HereI mostly commented that it happened, since I saw a lot of comments of not having UNC Cerberus triggered, or not knowing how t get it to trigger. Unfortunately I don't really have a relevant Save (sometimes I forget to manual save), but here's the log. https://me3tweaks.com/modmanager/logservice/logviewer?logid=bae49b0cbcbe69634c700aae7dc40b15
Virmire triggered after the Second story planet (Feros), here's the relevant save if needed Zoe00_QuickSave.pcsav, log is in the previous post. LE1DP had a rather big update recently, so that might be what's causing it, in my previous playtrough both quest triggered propery.
The only thing I can think of is that maybe the PlotManager file was either overwritten at some point or was never properly synced. Can you try using the Sync PlotManager option under the Tools tab in Mod Manager and seeing if that fixes it?
A note for Diversification Project users: This mod does not conflict with it, in fact they work together perfectly, however DP adds an additional prerequisite in order to start the UNC: Missing Marines assignment. You will need to have completed Dr. Michel's blackmail questline, learned about Banes from her, and then have asked Anderson about him. Anderson will tell you to ask Kahoku about Banes. With this mod installed at the same time, you will also need to do Feros and Noveria as stated in the description.
If you are unable to ask Kahoku any questions despite having done Feros and Noveria, and you have Diversification Project installed, then doing the above should resolve your issue. I am confident in saying most (though certainly not all) of the people in the comments experiencing issues with unlocking this questline were simply unaware of the DP change.
I have completed Feros, Noveria, visited the doc and done the blackmail mission. Also spoke to Anderson. I've received the missions concerning the rachni in Argos, and completed those, but Kohoku has not been on the citadel in ages. I've received- and been receiving his messages saying Cerberus is after him since BEFORE completing Noveria-and he is no longer on the Citadel.

Is your mod compatible with Essential Assignements ?
