About This Mod

This mod is a framework for Mass Effect 1 LE, allowing you to easily download new files. The framework itself does nothing, but allows the fashion to load new dialogs, clutter, NPCs, console commands, etc into existing areas with near-zero compatibility issues.


How does it work?

The framework adds a new "2DA" spreadsheet, similar to a larger spreadsheet. Other mods can add new rows of data to this table. When downloading new files, the game checks the 2DA table to see if new mod files need to be downloaded. This allows mod authors to avoid modifying high-traffic master-level files, which determine which files are downloaded and when.


Sorry, this only allows new content to be uploaded. To edit existing content or modify the current stream, the files must be modified directly. For example, with this framework, you can only add new NPCs to the Citadel, but you cannot replace old NPCs with new models. The framework also does not allow the use of "global" files, such as those in LE2 and LE3.


All modifications are created using M3 mode fusion format. The framework does not have its own DLC folder.


The "Articles" section contains a complete guide to using the framework by the authors of mods, and the "Downloads" section contains several files of the starter set.
