About this mod

Changes Samara's armor to an asari Commando uniform.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
12/10/21: I'm gonna open this one for porting to ME:LE as of now, but I do believe there's already some pretty good armor mods for Samara. Still, if anybody wants to, go for it! All I ask is credit for the original.

Please Note:
All of my mods currently require REV 653 of ME3Explorer, available here (under Optional Files) on the Nexus.  I am looking into updating them to the newest stable release of ME3Explorer and/or DLC mods (assuming I can ever get DLC mods to work...), but my modding time is currently
limited and I don't know when or if that will happen.  Please be sure to keep a copy of REV 653 if you wish to use my mods for the time being. Thanks! :)

There is a very minor conflict between this mod and JohnP's Alternate MEHEM that prevents Samara's new uniform from appearing when you encounter her at the Citadel Embassy. To see the uniform there, you can either temporarily remove/disable JAM, or just take out the BioD_CitHub_EmbassyP3.pcc from the JAM folder, run AutoTOC in ME3Explorer for that DLC, then run the TOCBin Updater for the main file. Samara should then be wearing the uniform at the Embassy. :)

Just a simple mod to give everyone's favorite Justicar an awesome Commando uniform :) 

To install, run the .mod in ME3Explorer's Mod Maker.  When it's done, run the TOCBin Updater for the base game (Tools/TOCbin Updater/File/Check PCConsoleTOC.bin and navigate to your game's BIOgame folder) and the Citadel DLC (Developer Tools/TOC/DLC TOCbin Updater/File/Check sfar and navigate to your game's DLC_EXP_003_Base folder).

If you get an unable to authorize dlc error, download and install WarrantyVoider's DLC Patcher to fix it.

***
To uninstall this (or any) mod, you must keep vanilla backups of any game files altered by the mod. When you're done with a mod, you then just drop your backup files into the appropriate folder and let them overwrite, then open up ME3Explorer and run the TOCBin Updater for the base game and any DLC altered by the mod.  In this case, the files and their locations are: 

In the BIOGame\CookedPCConsole folder
BioD_CitHub_EmbassyP3.pcc
BioD_CitSam_SamaraPawn.pcc
BioD_End001_436CRSamara.pcc

In the DLC\DLC_EXP_Pack003_Base\CookedPCConsole folder
BioH_Exp3_Samara_0.pcc
BioH_Samara_CitSim.pcc

Credit goes to ELE08 for the original asset extraction. I've in turn edited the mesh and textures to fit Samara better.  You can get the original assets and many others at her old blog here.
