- I installed 150 mods in an attempt to fix one the worst EA games ever released - Mass Effect Andromeda. They improve combat, gameplay, graphics and overall - make the game much better. Enjoy.

Important things, that I forgot to mention in the video:
1) You need *Frosty Mod Manager* to install and manage mods for Mass Effect Andromeda.
Link: frostytoolsuite.com/downloads.html
2) You MUST also install *FrostyFix* if you use EADesktop or Steam. Otherwise, mods will NOT APPEAR in your game.
Link: github.com/Dyvinia/FrostyFix
3) 'First Person Toggle' is not compatible with majority of combat overhaul mods.
4) 'First Person Toggle' is hidden by its author but you can easily find an alternative download link on Google. It takes like 3 seconds...
5) 'Groundside Firepower Pack' is INCOMPATIBLE with nearly all combat overhaul mods and all clothing mods. Your game will CTD if you combine incompatible mods with 'Groundside Firepower Pack'.
can you tell me why does my character's head remain visible in first person? LIke, I literally see my mouth and eyes and tongue, and it makes the game unplayable. I've heard the mod maker fixed this, but since his mod is hidden I obviously can't do much...
anthem was worse
@@FantasyLord19 Hi did you find the first person mod?
how do i use the frostyfix because i have no idea how to use it
With respect I think if I wanted to fix the protagonist it would be minor tweaks to make her look more like the actress who she's based on as other changes they made to her in mods and updates didn't do that and I think that and some minor tweaks to her general goofyness but to be honest "retrospectively" she's not the worst looking woman in a game of the last what decade. The protagonist of Horizon Forbidden West was hit much harder with the goofy stick. I like it when the woman look "Nice" they don't have to look like a professional model even if they are played by one originally. they can look more like the model when she's not at work if you like.
And example is one of the later Broken Sword games the female protagonist of that game is quite nice looking but she's not like intimidating and she's just a fine looking French woman without making anyone feel inadequate or superior when looking at her.
I think you can see it in a sea of "casual game" protagonists too they are all woman who are designed to appeal to woman good looking but not too good looking, and I'm happiest with that too. I think making your protagonist look like a super model or a prostitute isn't helpful to immersion and so I'm actually not that salty on the Sara Ryder Model looking Goofy she does look a lot more Goofy than Scott anyway, but over time I find her well "endearing" now for being goofy, even if I might not have minded if they'd been a little less insulting to actress.
She looks better to me that the plastic looking overly enhanced look of the previous games, that actually put me off the romance plots entirely I found they all looked like creepy Androids to me.
Where as Sara being a goofy flirt is kinda cute.
The reason it works so well in FPS mode is no doubt the reason the game had problems to begin with: the frostbite engine.
*100%* this.
Gold take. Yes.
Bingo.
Reminded me of starwars battlefront 2 3rd/1st swapping. Pretty clean
Maybe in part, but mostly it was due to vastly underestimating how long it would have taken to create their vision, scrapping years of work and then cobbling together Andromeda in less than a year.
The reason it works so well in first person is because of the frostbite engine they used. (Battlefield uses this engine) EA tried to save money, that was a big mistake
I really don't fkg know why EA didn't let the first person mod in the game, it would make for a much more interesting experience...
@@efxnews4776 they did it because it would have cost them a lot of money to get the unreal engine. However, they are greedy assholes. They should have spent the money. Basically they are cheap. Thank God mass effect 5 is confirmed to be unreal engine.
@@mikeyrocks8664 i'm not sure i get what you are saying here, the mod is on frostbite, you said yourself that the mod works just fine, to me does seem that wasn't just greed, it seem to be laziness from Bioware part.
Also, one thing that Andromeda gets right and better than the original trilogy is the combat, the original trilogy has a great story, lore and characters, but combat in the previous games suck.
In Andromeda the gameplay side is better than ever, but the story (wich is the highlight of the ME universe) completely sucks.
What i said agreeing with you is that the first person mod makes the gameplay even better.
Yes for sure the mod is great! I thought we were talking about the original games engine. I was just explaining why bioware ending up using that engine instead of unreal. I agree the combat is by far the best. I didn't mind the combat in Me3. But nice upgrade in andromeda for sure. I also thought Ryder was an extremely weak main character.
@@mikeyrocks8664 both engines are dogshit
I'll put it this way. If you don't like the main story and characters, then no amount of mods can fix this game. The game looks fine and the gameplay never bothered me. Customization worked well enough for me so I didn't have a problem with it. The number one problem I and many others have with this game is the story and characters. That unfortunately is something that cannot be fixed by mods.
Totally agree. It was one of the first great IPs to fall to the two dimensional garbage writing of the woke generation.
@@CaliforniaMan13 I don’t think woke writing had anything to do with this one. It just sucked.
Yes. This video isn't fixing the game at all for me (some things I find worse actually, like the new character model for Suvi what the fuck was that). I could install 1000 mods with all sorts of fixes and tweaks but if they don't change the dialogue/characters/story, then it doesn't matter. I seriously hated my own character, I could not RP them the way I wanted and it felt like all my dialogue options were between a "cringy idiot" and "slightly less cringy idiot". Also felt like they couldn't even wipe their own ass without SAM holding their hand.
@@spectralassassin6030 you're right, I shouldn't single out "woke" writing when video game/movie/TV writing has been garbage across the board....it's just that this game did have, in my opinion, the same sort of two dimensional characters that we do see in objectively "woke" writing in other IPs, but perhaps it's just a problem with creative writing in general, or perhaps an issue with game/movie/TV producers hiring these types of writers to begin with
i tried to give it a chance again awhile back. the ME community told me it was worth giving it another shot, since most of the bugs have been fixed since release. so i did, and yeah, no amount of patches or mods can fix the narrative - which is what engages me in videogames and it clearly just doesn't exist in Andromeda. whenever there are important story scenes, it all just feels like a ubisoft title rather than a passion project.
WOW I'm Diggeric (username on nexus mods) who created the Base Asari Tweak retexture! I'm so happy you used and liked it!! Thank you for using my mod!!! Big love and great vid!💙
You're hired!
As much as all these mods help the game be more playable, the story is where I care the most about and it's just so goddamn disappointing. Need a mod that completely overhauls the entire story lol
THe story and characters suck, thats why i can play 3, 4 playthrougs of Cyberpunk 2077, with all bugs and disapoiting open world, but i didn't even managed to finish Andromeda.
I get almost to the end of Andromeda but the story suck so baddly that at that point i have no reason to keep going, while in a game like Cyberpunk even if you burn out of the game play, the story and characters are good enough to keep you hooked.
In fact, what i said here, may sound heresy, but if theres one thing that CDPR nail it, was the characters, wich in my opinion are more realistic, than the original ME trilogy.
Exactly. The graphics are actually okey (after they fixed the bugs) and the combat, well, let's face it, is better than in trilogy mechanically, but what matters the most sucks. So I don't think it can be fixed by mods.
@@efxnews4776 weird, I've done a plahthrough of cyberpunk every update and there story just doesn't hit, zero emotional attachment to anyone in cyberpunk unlike the trilogy. but besides 2077 launch vs Andromeda I find it hard to compare either series.
@@nundzi1548well, maybe it isn't for your taste, i don't think the Mass Effect characters (from the original trilogy) are bad, but they seem to be more bland an less realistic in their emotions, character in Cyberpunk 2077 are way more realistic and believeble, than ME characters.
Part of that is definetely due to the tech in making this characters, if you pay attention to them, you will see what i'm talking about.
Their facial and body expression are far superior that any of the animations used in Andromeda, way more natural, also i say that the dialogue is more in tune with our own reality even the futuristic slangs fit perfectly witht the setting and characters.
But compared with Andromeda characters, well, CP77 are of the charts, all MEA characters are boring afk, they remind me of a teenager series that went for more than 20 years on the main channel in my country.
Again this may be our own taste, i appreaciate characters from ME trilogy, because they are mostly weird, the writers of the original trilogy made even the human characters interesting characters...
In ME Andromeda they seem to be all the same, even the alien characters aren't interesting, the only one is Jaal, and even so, i find him and his species a very generic alien species.
In CP77 all characters are humans, and ALL of them are interesting, from Jackie that is just a dude more or less in the same boart as you, to Jhonny wich is a rockerboy terrorist GHOST, to Alt Cunningan wich is an all powerful AI, that is based on the counsciousness of a dead woman.
but even other humans are interesting, from a convict criminal that want to become a martyr, a mayor whois so paranoid that doesn't trust even on reality.
@@efxnews4776 I just think cyberpunk is more like a futuristic gta, bioshock, far cry and ME trilogy is more like a voiced out fallout where much of your interaction with characters is choice based.
Linear experiences should always have better written characters, but people still debate legion vs ncr vs bos, and destroy vs synthesis and indoctrination.
shorter cinematic for take-off and landing is a must. same for anything that helps you cut back on the time wasting like faster door animations and faster Nomad with better boosts.
I HATE long landing but the mod is not working. When i load mod and press launch in the mod manager, the game launches in the task manager but i see nothing on the screen...
I actually think the base nomad is pretty fast for what it is and you can improve its boost but I do understand you and also the maps aren't too big too so it ok. I do understand you about the time wasting aspect though I had a fair share of games where especially with how big open world have gotten that I am aways looking for perks where movement speed is increased or finding the faster vehicle and still feeling like a lot of it is padding
Skippable takeoff cinematics. And for the love of all that generates Mass Effect fields a skippable planet jump system that removes that bloody pause in every damn planet's atmospheric zoom!
The absolute worst thing about Andromeda, is that if they kept it up, they could've turned it around.
Look at Cyberpunk 2077, No Man's Sky, Witcher 3, ALL had absolutely horrifyingly bad launches, yet they've managed to turn them around...That kind of dedication is what we need, That kind of Dedication is what WE Ask For, a Team of devs who seem to actually give a flying f*ck about their game and refuse to let it stay in the gutter, unfortunately those kinda devs are few and far apart.
They initially had good characters and good storyline and all they had todo is to fix glitches and optimize the game unlike shitmeda or wokemeda
In wokemeda all u can do is make ugly women a bit better looking with mods and change some minor gameplay mechanics but the terrible storyline and character writing you cant change by mods or patches
incredible effort from you. Respect, and I believe you may experience several crash due to mod conflicts. thanks
Andromeda was the first in the series i played, im playing mass effect legendary edition now and loving it, best series ive played since fall out, your mods are just the nuts.
Enjoy the ride
its a sin to play andromeda first smh
@@doml7750 No truer words were spoken.
@@doml7750 At least then you have nowhere to go but up.
@@Good100 andromeda is better than the first masseffect what you mean? You can’t compare an entire trilogy to one game
You just did the game a better marketing than their entire effort in 12mins.
Cry more dumbshit
Yea but they still programed it xD
Mods aside, I love the detail and work you put into this vid. Not a simple list that read about, but the passion you put into this is clear to see.
Thank you ;)
Props to Synth for sharing your passion. Unfortunately you probably knew the video was just going to get hate from…well…majority of people who played Andromeda and recognized its glaring flaws right away. I hope the people who like the game follow your guide and enjoy it even more.
How fucking stupid can YOU be
I agree. I am already using many of the mods, and they have enhanced my experience considerably. The story is not as good as the trilogy; the dialogue is infantile, and the characters are not as engaging....ah, but the combat. I love it.
Your production quality is amazing, you know what you're doing and how to do it🎉 godspeed Synth
Damn, that flashlight was so intense it blasted you through time and space into a superior game
So glad I found your channel. Excited to try this especially with 1st person mod
You have achieved the impossible mate - I really want to play this game again :D
again? lmao just don't
Great video. The mods definitely improve a lot of things. I enjoy Andromeda for what it is and the more I play it the more I enjoy it. I just wish that Bioware would have stuck around and done more to fix story holes and stuff like that. No DLC was a huge disappointment too. I really wanted to play as Quarians and Drell in the multiplayer.
You ruined Suvi :O
Lmao. I also say the same for Suvi and Peebee. The reason I mention Peebee is because the dark paint or spots on her face was intentional.
Agreed.
Wish there was mod to remove suvi. Such an annoying character
Ik I was actually horrified how bad she looked in the updated version 😢
nah he fixed her all the girls on here are butt ugly
Great video! Thanks for sharing it as even those who've never played the game can enjoy it!
You replaced a space explorer with a Kardashian, hard NO.
…so maybe don’t install the texture mods then. Not that hard.
I imagine it works well in first person because frostbite was designed for first person games like battlefield.
Watched 2 of your video and they are both very good, has a heavy modder myself you almost made me interested in playing Andromeda.
great stuff anyway!
Excelent work! I think the most annoying thing was the dwarf like bodies.
Make a collection out of it, mate. It will be the first one there as far as I know.
The First Person mod is mind-blowing. Like, legit, it looks so INCREDIBLE! I'm not usually a fan of FPS games, but in this instance? I'd actually install it!
3:41 saw that coming from a mile away and I still laughed 😂
Just started playing this week. Will spending the next week going through these mods, before starting again. Thanks
Cara,que trabalho sensacional! Vc merece estar no próximo mass effect para que não repitam os erros grosseiros que vc resolveu nesse ME. E o melhor foi a possibilidade de jogar em 1 pessoa! Ficou expendido! 👏👏👏👏
I seriously hope that we get a remake for Andromeda and that Bioware either hires you or reach out for consulting before they make it.
I saw that Skyrim joke coming from a mile away and still exhaled sharply...
Just leaving my tip here for you man: loved your 2 videos showing the mods for Mass effect, you really could do a channel just showing every game out there after the mods work and how they are improved, you definitely have the potential to do that after these 3 bangers, please consider it!
makes me wish i have a beefed up PC, i still love the original andromeda looks, just a shame this game was bogged down with such criticism it got abandoned. Love the game, Love the Mass Effect Lore.
These beautiful mods make me want to play through the game again.
if i put the first person toggle mod, the hair (Anto Hairstyles: minerva) and the face of my character change to the vanilla one... And if I switch the camera to third person the shadow of my character has no head XD. I try to see what happen but nothing... Anyone can help? :(
So I also tried to get back into it recently, what's with all the preset character faces having uneven eye levels? Like it's very noticeable on some faces, so much that it's ugly and creepy.
Behind all this heavy modding video there is an utterly masterful diss on this game all original trilogy Mass Effect fans simply can't adopt. When you literally don't like a game, you mod the shit out of it, dress it up and give it a new name. Brilliant.
I stopped playing the moment I realized I could not shoot every Angaran I met in the face.
Just decided to replay mass effect again, but the legendary version on my laptop and i came across your video. These changes look cool
Great work! Keep up bro❤
just restarted andromeda, and i agree, its good to just play it & pretend it never was a Mass Effect 😂
really well done video!
Bioware needs to pay off these modders and bring in a major update to the game. Definitely looks way better.
Those greedy bastards hadn't never paid to the old moders who have been fixing the OT/LE, specially ME3, much less to people who are trying to fix their much more paned MEA mess🤷♂️😒
Hope not. These mods are a major turn off.
i have skryim booted up in the background and then you bring me there yourself, well done earned a sub lol
the collection is not nexus can you upload it or should i download them seperatly?
Is there a mod where I can throw Liam out of the airlock?
Gameplay was never a problem with Andromeda. And even you can't fix its clusterfuck of a story.
0:15 Woah woah woah... You... ERASED Just Do It Krogan?!
Honestly though this is a very impressive list of mods :) Thank you for making this!
Any mods to improve the dialogue? 😅
Couldn't believe i completed those puzzles back then
I cannot imagine I played through this game. Mass Effect Andromeda was my first game of the series.Dare I say it left a pretty bad taste on my mouth for the series.
Glad I went through it with all my will power, the story is slow paced pretty much anything remotely interesting takes place after 60% of the game.
Wonderful Work on this Video, Made ME Andromeda significantly more interesting than it was.
Onto the next one.........
1:50 she looks so much worse after wth
Ngl tho having the option to be 1st person or 3rd should definitely be a feature in ME games going forward. It looks so damn cool in this video.
wow it looks stunning I never knew it could look so good. shame we cant fix facial and movement animation but this modded looks is so much better!!!
The modding community is fantastic and they made so many great mods for this game.
I personally prefer to only go for QOL/Bug Fix mods. The ones that overhaul stuff and add custom textures and such are not my jam.
The only mod I didn't know about was "No Scope No Problem". Was not aware that they coded the damage like that. How odd.
Also, a shame that the First Person Toggle (literally the first link) is hidden. I grabbed it before it was archived, but never used it. One day I will cause I heard that playing ME games in first person mode is really a new experience all together. You start noticing things you never did before.
Hey could you please upload the first person mod to like Google Drive or something? I'd love ti give it a try but its a shame it got hidden.
I'm currently replaying Andromeda again and it's just been so bleh, so I'll be sure to use most of the mods from the video! Thanks for making it!
Every time I start replaying Andromeda, I get to the frozen planet and the "save the whales" side quest and I call it quits. Like, the story bogs down so hard at that point and I get so tired of the "witty banter" from my crew mates (I don't mind witty banter but ffs EARN IT FIRST. I feel like no one is taking the mission seriously)
Is there a click one file to get all the mods necessary installed? Maybe a mega mod compilation installation 😅
@Synth
Loving this, want to use it for an Andromeda playthrough, especially since I've never modded it before. But you said 150 mods.... where's the rest of them? I'd love a link to the full list!
NVM i'm an idiot, you provided it lol.
One of the worst EA games ever releases is a large large stretch tbh
I'm not a PC player but these mods are awesome. You did an excellent job if i do get this I will install your mods. Shows how fans will fix the game better than a corporation
great video bro!
Thank you for a really good build 👍. I actually like Andromeda (unlike Inquisition, but maybe I'll find an assembly for it on the channel 😏)
Incredible job dude !! please share your modlist.
I'll definitely use them for my Andromeda playthrough & credit you in it 😊
I wish there were story mods like for me3 that fixes the story
I like that it's 'abandonware' - the story does not get developed in ways I don't like.
I only played MEA no other version, i enjoyed it the way it is but now i want to replay it again and thanks to you i can enjoy it in full glorious graphics
Thank you! Was about to try to get back into it and this is the way!
Imagine if the company (not necessarily the individual workers) cared enough to make this game good.
With voice AI modders can now even make new dialogues because that is also something this game needs...
You in an Aragorn voice "I let the vanilla Mass Effect Andromeda go."
Bioware in a Boromir voice "Then you did what I could not."
i saw this after the cyberpunk mod video i will install all these mods asap thx
Can you enable them all at once?
'First Person Toggle' is incompatible with every single combat overhaul mod.
'Groundside Firepower Pack' is by default incompatible with all clothing mods and it will require patches to work with combat overhaul mods.
Everything else should work fine when installed together.
Yeah, that thumbnail instantly put me off. Making the character 'glam' isn't better. I judged the game too harshly, after just a single playthrough. Later, I used a couple of bug-fixing mods and ReShade, giving it another chance, and it was actually much better than I remembered. It does a lot of things much better than the original and lacks in other places. The story is not as grand as the trilogy's, but that is expected. It's still a worthy sequel/side-story. And like I always keep saying, I don't know if ME4 was even necessary to make, simply because it is highly doubtful they can top the story of the trilogy (or even just Andromeda's story, for that matter). What could possibly be a bigger threat than the Reapers? Unless it'll also come from outside the Milky Way galaxy.
EDIT: At 1:51 Oh, my god! What have you done with Suvi!? Yuck! Okay, that's it. I cannot take these "fixes" seriously.
@Matthew Bakos Though they left themselves a lot of room to grow a new story arc. Andromeda happens in a single cluster; what happens as they move in to the rest of the galaxy? Who are the Jardaan? Where did they go? What's with the "scourge?" Was it all that's left of the bad guys? Why did the Jardaan make the Angara? What can the coordinated vaults do? What'sthe big mystery with Jien Garson's death? What will be the relationship with Mom Ryder? Was the Archon a rogue element of the Kett, who are actually potential allies against the Scourge-makers? Will the post-reaper Milky Way send another series of arks, or maybe even build a relay gate between galaxies? (You know, now that they have 600 years of reaper tech under control...)
There's a *lot* more story to tell, if they care to. I'd like to get what they did with the quarian ark and finish it out. Look what the modders did when Pinnacle Station was left out of MELE. There's lots of love for Mass Effect.
Cry more lmaooo
@@AngelicBeatdown It's practically a rule for any comment section that there has to be one immature comment without any substance.
The shadows of the game and the hair can be improved? Like TreesFX, PureHair, Hairworks etc?
The picture with the preview - was scary, it became even worse
I happen to love Andromeda. I know a lot of people don't like it, but I really enjoy it. It CERTAINLY has problems though, I myself have a small list of things I badly wish were different, mostly story related.
What did you dislike about the story? I never played the game but I remember all the memes about how ugly the female characters looked.
@@viron6734 Yep it takes over an hour to make good_ish custom Sara in the vanilla game.
The story aspect...It has some good in it, but sometimes it feels like amerikan college in space.
So, the big "fix" is to ruin Suvi, Peebee, and give FemRyder skimpier clothes.... Okay. I'm playing it for the first time in 2022 and it's not even that bad, it's pretty good actually. I'm 60 hours in and having fun. people just want to complain. it's not ME1-3 but it's far from a train wreck.
It is so sad that so many things had to be fixed... Even something small like that popup window that should open only when you have no free space in inventory.
But yep, because of how it was I didn't want to play it... And now I want to check it out with all those mods and in first person view!
I hope you did send ubisoft an email about your work!
only problem i have frosty mod manager installed and some mods are saying frosty mod manager is need it to download mod any ideas? and after i launch the game in frost manager mod i gett error cannot launch game with selected mod unable to launch process as there is already a running process with process id 18896 and nothing happends i restart PC run frosty as admin etc it did applyed mods again running cashe etc i click launch, nothing happends ? i guess rip mods for me windows 10 64bit pro tryed second time no luck with frosty mod manager any other way?
It is pretty co that you went through all the trouble to make Andromeda better, in your eyes. However, changes for the sake of changes, don't a better outcome make. Also, Andromeda is far from EA's worst game
No bro i don't agree Dragon Age 3 and 2 are terrible games much more terrible then Adnromeda.
@@Wiktorino1984 dragon age 2 is tremendously great game, inquisition is a good game. Origins story is great, but combat sucks.
I never played Andromeda before, but after this video I wanted to. These mods are gorgeous.
3:45 CALLED IT! The second the screen went white I said to myself “hey you’re finally awake!”
The fact It took 150 mods to fix Mass Effect Andromeda says alot
Im more shocked that someone makes content about ME:A in 2022
This game is completly forgotten by Bioware, EA, and Mass Effect fandom
I’m playing it now with the mods and it’s really not that bad. Not like ME2 or 3 but still good
Nice. Now you've only got to fix the writing, animations, voice acting, gun & ability play and NPC models and it might just be tolerable. :)
How though? I cant get any mods to work. Using the latest version of the frosty mod manager and no mods show up in the game.
This is a really good video. I will do what this video did and play it again.
I would be fine even with the story, nothing to remember but ok. But the writing.. Oh man how I disliked the Marvel-esq "let´s be all funny and cool" teens in space. There were some sparks of actual seriousness and then Liam popped up from somewhere and it all went to shit.
The storyline wasn't bad. And it was probably my favorite Mass Effect game (standalone). I unfortunately fear that due to the rushed development that the bugs were to much for people to get over within the first year of launch that I will never get the DLC or sequel I would want for the title. I am just glad that I have it though.
The storyline was bad. The bad guys are the generic bad guys who are bad just for the sake of it.
My FMM keeps closing my steam and EA launchers every time i click the launch option, is there something im doing wrong?
You fixed Peebee from looking like a raccoon. Thank you!
I never thought the storyline was bad. Players were expecting ME Trilogy 2.0, another populated galaxy with the similar problems of the Milky Way. But the Initiative, Scourge, missing Arcs, Kett ascension were all really good ideas. The main flaw of the game is the supporting character's back stories including Ryders were almost non existent compared to the trilogy. Their loyalty missions were not impactful to say the least.
Personally I was disappointed at how much they DID copy the original ME trilogy: the kett felt like a weaker version of the reapers, with capturing the angara (and later the krogan) and turning them into kett - just like the reapers did with the other races. I saw the twist coming long before simply because it had already been done in the previous games. I wish they had just focused on the arcs instead.
I think the storyline has potential but wasn't realized at all unfortunately.
This is why all games should be designed in third person first. That way you have realistic and immersive animations.
Exactly, something huge triple a development teams can’t even get right now a days. Looking at cyberpunk 2077.
I don’t know how the developers can say they were going for a really immersive first person experience when every time you look at your shadow you’re character is doing the most wonky, unnatural looking animations.
And you can use a 3rd person mod and see for yourself how wack all the animations look. And it really takes me out of the experience. Apart from all the other bugs like talking dead bodies, dumb combat and traffic ai, and cars and pedestrians disappearing every 3 minutes.
@@Droop-e If they had started with third person, they would have been able to map the animations to the AI so pedestrians running and fighting do so more fluidly. The basics.
Thats so wierd. I played this on XB1 over two years ago and the default Sara Ryder looks nothing like that "before" shot. I'm assuming thats the launch giggles version? - I was still able to remodel the siblings before I even started playing; and switch between them on extra playthroughs.
You have to mod that on PC?
Idk why but in my game Ryder has some weird shadow bug when in hub. Putting shadow low fixes, but then shadows is.. well.. on low. I have no idea how to fix this. (This on vanilla game)
Well, I prefer the third person, especially for powers like the biotic charge and the use of melee like the Asari sword, also Mass Effect: Andromeda is very good and they were ridiculously hard on it.
If only you could fix the crappy writing.
Worth mentioning that Fixpack does break certain things for some people, like landing on Edaara and H-047c
great work man !
One og my biggest gripes with this game is the ability to be "mean" essentially removed. You can only play as a nice character except for a few dialogue options. Renegade is non existent and Ryder talks like they're in fucking kindergarten.
Ok, you have clearly worked a lot for this vid/modpack, and it shows. Respect for that.
Though it seem we have very different preferences.
At 10:12 "So you can turn this Ryder into that one" I was like: F*ck go back! GO BACK! Get that Starbucks bimbo outta my Mass Effect you heretic.
And yeah "Andromeda: A Mass Effect Fanfiction from Bioware's Freshman Team" is a pretty decent game as is for me. Yyup the lauch was ugly, some of it is cringe, but this mess has a heart, and I unreasonably love it.
Will probalby cherrypick like a half or third of your pack and have another go at it someday
Ryder is way hotter as a Starbucks bimbo than the bland placeholder she is in the main game
0:40 you have a fine taste for views and flower pots, I salute you 🎉❤
I would love to get into this just seems like a whole lot of a hassle. Is there anyway this 150 mod cant be just one whole mod.
