1.1.0 released this week with some bug-fixes and compatibility for the community framework
From now on the mod will REQUIRE the COMMUNITY FRAMEWORK file (found on the LE3 Community Patch page), as this will keep Phantom Introduction Mod compatible with other major mods such as Expanded Galaxy Mod, Project Variety, as well as my own mods that have not released yet.
I will not be releasing a version that doesn't use the Community Framework as this would double my workload and I just do not have the time, nor do I think it is in the best interests of those using the mods.
this doesn't seem to be working. kai leng is holding the salarian now in my game and still remains with kai leng skin. i have the community framework option installed with the le3 comm patch.
Love the mod! I have a question, is there a technical reason why the car was replaced with a shuttle? I could see Phantoms working together and procuring vehicles on site, or KL ordering a pair to hunt down anyone seen leaving C-Sec in a vehicle and they steal a fast one to intercept Shep. Just curious if there was a "behind the scenes" reason.
No technical reason, it just makes far more sense that the invasion force would use military grade vehicles, but also just after the crash landing you see Phantoms disembarking from a Cerberus dropship. It ties together seeing them arrive for combat with the scene that introduces them.
I have no issues with Kai Leng other than the fact he has plot video magic that makes all my kicking of his arse invalid. I have killed him in the last fight..before I was supposed to...so the fight bugged and had to do it again.
Yes, this is a good start but I refuse to play LE3 until the 'Shut up Leng' mod gets ported or he is replaced with someone else completely! I wish someone would port the Virmire Survivor mod that replaces him with them.
@gunsol Are you kidding? That falls under what is his only superpower in that Shepard turns into an idiot around him! This is the same person who told them to make sure Saren was dead and we're supposed to believe they not only didn't check that he was dead and this is someone multiple people told them they thought was dead and/or that he's hard to kill but they somehow didn't notice him laboring and stumbling towards them? What's even more stupid is anyone dying in the Citadel fight with him. Thane has a gun! Why is he charging someone with a sword? Kirrahe is cloaked! Shoot him, punch him, anything! He can't see you! Everything about this character is stupid!
well we dont have a mod that turns him into the virmire casualty, but one that turns him into jacob or miranda with a mind control chip is being developed.
I think its because it serves as both an introduction to a new enemy type, and makes Kai Leng feel less absurd by not being involved in the scene. He becomes a more plausible villain as a consequence.
Plus having them escape on a shuttle rather than a car also made it feel more believable.
one question. tim talks to kai about his f*#@ up of the mission, did you remove that or change his model into the phantom there too, or how did you handle it? :)
That's unchanged and doesn't need to be. Kai Leng is still there on the Citadel and still gets his ass beat by Thane (or w/e scenario is triggered based on your choices thus far) and Cerberus still ultimately fails in their coup attempt even if they do manage to kill the salarian councilor or not, so Kai Leng still gets and deserves his finger wagging.
The only thing this does is change the flying car scene after he runs away from Leng jumping onto and disabling Shepard's car to a phantom doing it instead, with Leng presumably piloting or otherwise just riding inside the shuttle still.

Hopefully you can all understand that position.
Otherwise, the less I have to stomach Kai Leng and his cringe tryhard bullshit the happier I will be.

I don't know why but that scene is so much better with the Phantom than with Kai Leng. What do you think it is?
Anyways, kudos and congrats

What Saskei says is correct. The mod edits only this one specific scene, so everything else involving Kai Leng is still present.
