    1. Can you reupload video as 16:9 (its 32:9 I believe) If so I will ask mana if I can embed it on page.

    3. Thought html5 would work 16:9 but I have no idea how it works. Anywho put both versions up and moved me2 to front page. ty.

    4. We just figured out how to solve the problem with "jagged spikes" that totally bugged me. Will post a new version soon.

  5. To anyone who ran into the "spikes issue" where a spike comes out of a character/object model. That issue should be fixed. If you run into it please leave a comment.

    4. o yea http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/368/index/13422555/1
      Is pretty essential for ME2. Might be more/better ones but I remember it being amazing.

    6. Dont want to ruin anything but if your doing playthroughs to lead to ME3.
      Garrus / Tali . They offer more as far as character interraction / further story.(Kaiden / Ashley from ME1 also work). The other options are a bit more disappointing. Though I will probably do them all over the years = )....Yea... Im a fanatic for mass effect.

    7. Err was unclear when I wrote that. Romances.
      Basically here are the tiers: (as far as in ME3). Im not rating it by anything perverted or some nonsense. Just further interaction/story.
      Tali / Garrus / Liara
      Kaiden / Ashley / Jack
      The others
      Jacob
      Dont romance your ships liason(forget her name. Just dont do it)

      I romanced Miranda and did that playtrough first for me3 and it was very disappointing. Its not a good way to go into ME3.

    1. We tested all versions.
      Please detail what happens. If it is a crash turn steam/origin community off.

  8. No crash, there is simply no effect. Shadows are still corrupted etc. I've got a french cracked version. Maybe the nodvd .exe?

    ReplyDelete
  9. Hello,
    for me the shadows still have some problems, I have a french version like Yoann, but I bought it on steam on promotion

    1. Yes, it still has issues. I would turn it off

    2. Ok it's what I have done to test, and I came to forget it, it doesn't affect game experience

      Thank you very much!

    1. It has to do with trying to fix shadows. If you play with shadows off delete from shaderoverride/vertexshaders
