About this mod

This mod allows Tali and Thane to be romanced by both male and female Shepard, utilizing unused dialogue in the game files and repurposed dialogue from other parts of the trilogy. It also fixes issues with imported FemShep/Ashley and MaleShep/Kaidan romances, and allows and restores other same-gender content when possible.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
Changelogs
Features
  • Both male and female Shepard can now flirt with Tali and Thane and pursue romances with them.
  • Imported same-gender romances with Ashley or Kaidan are now properly recognized in certain scenes and dialogue.
  • Through the use of restored and repurposed dialogue, every line is voiced and animated properly.
  • Characters will not refer to Shepard as the wrong gender.


Changes
  • FemShep can now flirt with Tali ("I'm interested") and initiate her romance after completing her loyalty mission. In the next conversation, FemShep can either lock-in the romance ("I want to be with you") or end it ("We'll say it never happened"/"This is too dangerous").
  • MaleShep can now flirt with Thane ("Just a friend?") in his third conversation on the Normandy. In his post-loyalty conversation, his romance can be initiated by choosing the "I want you, Thane" option, and in the next conversation, MaleShep will be able to either lock-in the romance ("I care for you too") or end it ("I can't. I'm sorry.").
  • Kaidan's email to a romanced Shepard will now properly refer to MaleShep as a man and FemShep as a woman.
  • Joker's post-Horizon conversation has been fixed so FemSheps who romanced Ashley and MaleSheps who romanced Kaidan will use the correct dialogue.
  • Kelly will now only ask Shepard if they have feelings for Ashley/Kaidan if they were actually romanced, rather than only asking MaleShep about Ashley and FemShep about Kaidan.
  • Kelly will now tell FemShep that Tali has feelings for her after she has been recruited.
  • If MaleShep hasn't locked-in a romance and heard Garrus's "reach and flexibility" story before Mordin's sixth conversation on the Normandy, Mordin will mistakenly assume that MaleShep and Garrus are in a relationship, complete with a restored line from MaleShep.
  • MaleShep is now able to flirt with Donovan Hock when attempting to distract him during Kasumi's loyalty mission.
  • Shepard's romance history will now be checked when Aria tells them to loosen up and find a girl/man, allowing their sexuality to be properly recognized.
  • The Dark Star advertisement on the Citadel will now choose to show a male or female NPC based on Shepard's romance history, rather than always showing a male NPC for FemShep and a female NPC for MaleShep. If Shepard hasn't romanced anyone, then the advertisement will not appear.
  • The Sophist advertisement on the Citadel will now accurately mention who Shepard is romancing (if anyone), instead of only mentioning Garrus, Jacob, Samara, or Thane for FemShep and Jack, Miranda, Samara, or Tali for MaleShep.
  • The Genesis DLC will now properly recognize imported FemShep/Ashley and MaleShep/Kaidan romances, and Ashley and Kaidan can now also be chosen as love interests in new playthroughs regardless of gender.


Options
  • NPCs Flirt Regardless of Gender - Allows Gianna Parasini, Meln, and the Blue Suns recruiter at Afterlife to flirt with both male and female Shepard.
