Mod Info 2. How to Install 3. Ressources 4. Credits *********************************************************************************************************************************************** 1. Mod Info -> This mod changes Liara's casual attire. Only her Normandy and off shore outfits change.Her outfit during battles will stay her default armor. File included: Ressources\ LiaraCasual.upk LiaraCasual_Diff.dds LiaraCasual_Norm.dds LiaraCasual_Spec.dds LiaraCasual_Spwr.dds LiaraMainArmorEditedUV.upk BioH_Liara_00.pcc* BioH_Liara_00_Explore.pcc* BioH_Liara_00_NC.pcc* LiaraCasual.tpf* README.txt TextureInstall.mod *required *********************************************************************************************************************************************** 2. How to Install -> For a easy installation you only need the files marked with an "*" above. You also need the following programs: ME3 Explorer: http://sourceforge.net/projects/me3explorer/ Texmod: http://www.fileplanet.com/205418/200000/fileinfo/Texmod-v0.9b 1. Navigate to your game installation folder. Then go to \BIOGame\CookedPCConsole\ and create a new folder called "Backup". Copy the following files from "CookedPCConsole" and paste them to "backup": BioH_Liara_00.pcc BioH_Liara_00_Explore.pcc BioH_Liara_00_NC.pcc This will ensure that you can change back to the original version, if you do not like the mod, easily. 2. Go to this mod's folder and copy the files with the same name as in 1. to your "CookedPCConsole" folder. Let it overwrite the original files. 3. Open ME3Explorer.exe and go to "Tools>TOCbinUpdater". Click "File" and select "PCConsoleTOC.bin" located in "\Mass Effect 3\BIOGame". It should find 3 updates for this mod. All related to the files listed in 1. Let it apply the changes and close ME3Explorer. 4. Now you need the textures to show up ingame. You can install them permanently to the game, but i do not recommend this because it is not that easy to undo. Instead use Texmod. Instructions on how to run Mass Effect 3 through Texmod are here: http://elemods.blogspot.ru/2013/07/texmod.html Open the "LiaraCasual.tpf" and run the game. Liara should now have casual clothing when not in a battle! =) 5. Install textures permanently (No Texmod required after installation) with ME3 Explorer. Inside the program go to "Tools>ModMaker". Click "File> Load Jobs" and select the "TextureInstall.mod" inside this mod's folder. Press "Run> Run All" and wait until it has finished installing. (A message window will popup confirming it is done. This automatically updates the TOC.bin) *********************************************************************************************************************************************** 3. Ressources -> For those interested in editing this mod I included my ressources. These are only for people who know what they are doing! Textures in .dds format and two .upks with the edited models for these textures. LiaraMainArmorEditedUV.upk is really only that. It is her default main armor, textures are from the game (unedited in quality) and the only thing that has been edited here is the UV map so she can keep her armor during battle, but stay casual during off work. LiaraCasual.upk has the casual clothes mod. *********************************************************************************************************************************************** 4.
