About this mod

Replacement of Edi's casual outfit with an outfit similar to her from Ashes outfit.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
Changelogs
This mod replaces EDI's casual outfit with a version which is similar to her outfit of the from Ashes DLC.

There is one optional package included which contains compatibility patches for BACKOFF and for Project Variety.

Installation
You need me3explorer 3.0.0 to install one part of the mod (the meshes and materials). Download it from the Nexus.
If you install the tpf-file (textures) with another program you don't have to initialize the texexplorer cache of ME3Explorer.

1) Install all DLC-mods and all altered pcc-files.
2) Load the mesh mod "Edi_alternate_casual_meshes.mod" with Mod Maker of ME3Explorer 3.0.0
3) OPTIONAL: Load the optional file Edi_alternate_casual_meshes_userDLCaddon.mod or your own compatibility mod if you need compatibility patches for installed DLCs.
      I wrote a guide on how you can make compatibility patches for my mod by yourself. You can find the guide on the side of one of my other mods: Edi as Dr. Eva
4) Run all the jobs (press Run all).
5) OPTIONAL: Install all texture mods you want to play with, for example ALOT.
6) Install the texture file Edi_alternate_casual_textures.tpf with the program of your choice. You can use ME3Explorer, ALOT installer (drag and drop the file) or Mass Effect Modder. But don't use more than one program!

WARNING: It's not advised to install mesh mods after the installation of textures!

Compatibility
The DLC mod Project Variety replaces the low res textures of EDI of the Citadel DLC. To solve the issue simply delete the file
DLC\DLC_MOD_ProjectVariety\CookedPCConsole\BioH_Exp3_Edi_2.pcc
and AutoToc the DLC folder afterwards. There are no disadvantages from doing that.

The following pcc-files are modified by this mod:

CookedPCConsole\BioA_Gth001_000LevelTrans.pcc
CookedPCConsole\BioD_CitHub_000ProCit.pcc
CookedPCConsole\BioD_ProMar_740Bossfight.pcc
CookedPCConsole\BioD_ProMar_750Finale.pcc
CookedPCConsole\BioH_EDI_00.pcc
CookedPCConsole\BioH_EDI_00_NC.pcc
CookedPCConsole\BioH_EDI_00_Explore.pcc
CookedPCConsole\BioH_EDI_01_NC.pcc
DLC\DLC_EXP_Pack001\CookedPCConsole\BioD_Lev001_P3.pcc
DLC\DLC_EXP_Pack003_Base\CookedPCConsole\BioH_EDI_CitSim.pcc
DLC\DLC_EXP_Pack003_Base\CookedPCConsole\BioH_Exp3_EDI_2.pcc

Any DLC mod which uses one of these files can lead to incompatibilities if you don't make a compatibility patch.
