Companion Custom Race Replacer

[LaEspada]

Well since ME is making it in this, the question needs to be asked.. where's EDI?!

 

I've seen some of Shepard's/IsSquall's pics with EDI and I wonder if he was ever going to release EDI as a custom race.

That would be amazing.

Liara T'soni Version is out.

Excuse the poor lighting. I've been swtiching between ENB's lately and I forgot to have it enabled.

It looks a lot better in game.

 

 

Also within the custom race files itself there is an option for nude body. So no worries

[LaEspada]

Does anyone have the Lightning race mod? I'm sure some of you may have it since the ED-E replacer has a Lightning option.

Could you send me the files? The VGUnetwork mirror was taken down since the site was shut down. I'd appreciate it if anyone could supply me with the files. I wanted to try something

Is this what you're looking for?

FFXIII - Lightning Race 1.0.rar

Yup, thanks a lot

 

I've also linked to your post on the front page since the original was taken down. I still want people to use it, and I couldn't even find any valid files left even after searching for half and hour. Thanks

 

Now I have three backs

Thank you! i was just looking for a Ares ed-e replacer, fits perfectly!

 

And while Ares is perfect for ed-e, the other races would also be great as replacers for Cass or Veronica (or other Companions). Maybe you could also do replacers for those?

 

 

 

Edit.

One other thing, i haven't installed it yet, so I don't know if there is maybe an option in Game for this, but the hairstyle in the screenshots is the same my character is using, so i would prefer for ed-e to use another one. Is it possibe to change it, can i do it myself? I think i would prefer an Punk/Raider like Hairstyle for ED-E (Cyberpunk like).

Wait, this is based on Fake Plastic Trees? I think remember i could change ED-Es Hairstyle with this one, so this probably already answered itself.

No, I got rid of the dialogue to change her hairstyle, reason being is that I would have to modify over 20 variants and I really didn't want to do the extra work for something that someone could just go into GECK and change in less than a minute.

 

And yes, I was going to do Veronica and Cass replacers.

I was going to have variants for Cass being Female Shepard since I feel that's the only one that would fit her because of her red hair.

Veronica would have the RE3 Jill Valentine and a another for Miranda Lawson race.

 

I have the esp's done except miranda variant for Veronica, just tweaking a few things here and there.

 

[LaEspada]

Finished My Cass and Veronica replacers.

Cass now has a variant for ME3 Female Shepard

Veronica now uses a variant of Jill Valentine RE3 Race.

Don't have Geck installed, and remembering the last time i had it would take me pretty long to get something done with it, ah well after realizing that i need really high skills in Repair and Science it will probably be a long time (if ever) until i unlock her in my just started playthrough. So i don't worry about that now.

Yay, Jill as Veronica would have also been my choice. Fem Shep as Cass not so much. Standard Fem Shep looks kinda strange, but that's just me.

 

Thanks!

Yea, the makeup on Fem shep is really thick. I would change it but I have no experience in modifying body textures as they are part of the actual texture itself. Your welcome to though

But I like Cass as Fem shep though so meh

 

But I will make other variants for Cass and Veronica. It's all about choices eh?

I don't think that anybody would want to play with textures that i messed with, would probably look like the Joker

 

btw do you know if Shepard ever released that Young Samus Aran Race?

From my knowledge, no he hasn't but I wish he did. It was one of his better looking ones

 

[SamVakarian27]

Been watching this thread well done on the mod my friend. I've been using shepards stuff as well and I just starting using the custom jack hair on the Shepard head morph. Thought I'd share what it looks like as it's borderline relevant.

 

[hafertaler]

I've been using one of the earlier versions of this mod, can't say which one exactly, since the 7z file doesn't have a version in the name, but it's the ED-E only version before you added the Liara race. It works pretty well, but I just wanted to tell 3 things I discovered.

 

1. One of the quests didn't trigger for me with this replacer, I think it's an optional one, but the one right after you activate ED-E and are told to go to the Novac(?) junk yard. If I remember correctly you have to talk to the old dude in Primm to get it triggered but it didn't for me and asking about ED-E just lead to something like "I dunno" from him.

 

2. I can't dismiss ED-E. If I choose that option she won't go back and still continue to follow me. After I finished Lonesome Road I went back into the dlc area and she even came with me.

 

3. I got the problem with not being able to leave the weather monitoring station in the fort too. I had to activate the door in the console to get out of there without starting a fight.

 

Since this is still my first playthrough of the game, I don't know if point 2 and 3 are in any way related to this mod at all. In regards to point 3: I read about it and it was only supposed to happen if you pass the speech check at the front gate where you can keep your medical supplies if you pass (I did), but then keep everything you have. The wiki claims that bug was fixed in version 1.4, but maybe the wiki is just wrong about that.

 

I'm pretty sure though that the first thing was triggered by this mod, since I already had ED-E and that quest when I discovered this mod. I started a new game after that to avoid any problems, but the quest didn't trigger. But maybe I just forgot to do something to make it trigger? I'm not that sure Oo

 

Anyway: great mod, I haven't noticed anything odd aside from those points above, so I'm looking forward to any improvements you can come up with and thanks for sharing.

[LaEspada]

I can try and rebuild the ESP's from scratch probably.

I'll get the original ESP and go from there.

 

But those problems I have no clue why there are happening. The only problem with the esp, doesn't come from my tampering and thats the ED-E My Love quests triggering very prematurely. Almost immediately after you hire her. That's the problem with the original ESP. not my work.

 

As for the weather station I have no idea why that is happening.

 

Any problems with the original Fake plastic trees WILL carry over onto this mod. All I did was edit ED-E's race and deleted her cosmetic changes dialogue options. And some redundant races that no longer matter.

 

But I'll poke into it and see.

[LaEspada]

Also I will get the vanilla plugin and remove the Lings dependency.

 

I'll update the plugins one by one.

[LaEspada]

Ahaha I think I found the problem. I accidentally deleted the formIDlist for the weather station which I think is this one No idea how since I don't remember touching that. But it might be because I switched over to a new esp. I dunno.

1EWatchControlScript

 

Will be updating. I won't delete the items references I will only delete redundant races, and dialogue topics for cosmetic.

[LaEspada]

Okay I'm giving up on trying to fix it. I'm going to just take the original ESP and change her race. >>>.<<< and set all those dumb races to unplayable so they won't bother you.

 

Don't use the option to change her looks. I'm not going to do all that work. and deleting that dialogue topic for some reason causes more errors. No idea why. I give up

[LaEspada]

Well, I've updated the new files. I realized that the 1EWatchControlScript was retarded in the first place so when you saved the ESP in GECK the formlist would be deleted from the file.

 

Anyways

I'ved added Willow 1.0 as a replacer now since she's a nice looking girl and you might like twins

and updated all the ED-E

 

My only issues now is that don't use the options to change her looks. You'll probably be freaked out by the horribleness of those presets.

Also I guess you'll have to fire her before you go to the weather control station because saving the ESP in GECK removes the 1EWatchControlScript modification which I assume is the reason why you guys were having problems. There's no way I can do anything about it. Sorry.

 

I'll update the OP with that new information.

Anyway: great mod, I haven't noticed anything odd aside from those points above, so I'm looking forward to any improvements you can come up with and thanks for sharing.

 

1. I never had any issues with ED-E My Love quest. I've had my own ESP taken directly from what you guys are using and I've completed them with no issues. Except the premature starting, but works just fine.

 

2. Never had that problem with being unable to dismiss ED-E. Try using the dismiss companions console at the Gun Runners? If you have it. I think she will join you if you plan to do Lonesome road, if so I would just recommend getting JIPS command and control to sandbox her somewhere.

 

3. I'll add that to the OP.

 

I'm glad you like my mod even though I really didn't do any real work. I just changed her race. So I'll probably won't be able to do any real bug fixes or improve upon the original mod. I don't have that kind of expertise in that field of modding.

 

[hafertaler]

ED-E My Love is the whole upgrade quest, right?

That one triggered for me too, but not the optional part to go to the Novac Junkyard, just talking to the dude from BOS and the other part of it. 

Using the dismiss companion console at least let's her stand still in place, so right in front of the console ; ) She also accompanied me during the Dead Money DLC, I lost her perks because she got automatically dismissed, but she still followed me or better: pulled every ghost within sight and clobbered them with a tire iron Oo

 

But if that's something that doesn't happen for others, I'm sure it's a problem on my end. 

[LaEspada]

I'll test out DLC's then. At least ones that followers should be dismissed for. I'll also test out the firing issues. I've never had a problem with her not being fired properly, but I think she would accompany you to places where companions normally get fired. She's not a vanilla companion so.

Which are

Old World Blues

Dead Money

Lonesome Road

 

right?

 

For ED-E's upgrade quest or ED-E's companion quest "ED-E My Love" the original Fake Plastic Trees got rid of Novac Junkyard option I believe. So you can only go to the Followers of the Apocalypse in Freeside or the Brotherhood of Steel in Hidden Valley to upgrade her.

 

Without a extremely good knowledge of scripting and quest-making for New Vegas I can't do anything about it. I am but a simple modder. I only know how to do simple things.

Did you try to re-hire her?

[hafertaler]

to get the perks back or what do you mean? No, I didn't. Well I did after I finished the dlc. If I have the choice between her accompanying me without perks and with, I choose the former, at least for a portion of the game where she isn't supposed to help.

 

Btw:  she also accompanied me on Honest Hearts... So Lonesome Road and Old World Blues worked as intended without her tagging along, but the other two DLCs didn't.

 

But I'm a bit irritated since nobody else complained, so I assume I'm the only one with that problem. It has to be a problem on my end, but I don't have the slightest clue what might be causing it. When I start a new game, I will tinker around a bit and see if I can narrow down the source, but I think I'm nearly done with the game and finished all the dlc, so I don't see the point in going through great lengths now.

 

And the stuff with the ED-E My Love quest: I didn't know it was removed by the original author of the mod and I don't think it's that big of a deal. It's just something I realized because I started a new game with your mod right after I got the quest, so I thought I should mention it.
