About this mod

This Coalesced mod adds Morinth's armor into Femshep's locker as casual wear and armor. You'll also be able to wear a breather mask instead of a helmet if you hate hiding your face. Works on the collector ship etc. Mass Effect 2 only. Nikita Shepard Headmorph in downloads. Enjoy :) New version available with armor stats! More will be added later.

Permissions and credits
Info

I'm learning how to add stats to Morinth's armor. More versions will be added soon. I made this coalesced file edit originally for myself but I thought some people might want to use Morinth's armor too.

Everyone go check out MoonkissedAgara's beautiful retexture of the armor! Works beautifully with the mod <3
MELE2 Morinth Retexture.

Instructions how to manually add this to your coalesced file if you already have coalesced mods installed are available in the comments section. Otherwise just replace your coalesced file with this one :)

Install


Navigate to your ME2 CookedPCConsole folder
For me the location is: D:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Mass Effect Legendary Edition\Game\ME2\BioGame\CookedPCConsole

Extract the downloaded file with winrar or similar program.
Backup your original Coalesced_INT.bin file and then replace it with the modded one.

In game you should now find Morinth's armor in your casual appearances and armor. You can make it visible by changing all the armor slots to empty except for one. Otherwise the armor won't show in missions. I usually leave a visor on or maybe a shoulder piece. Earrings work aswell. You barely even notice the earrings, but they count as a ”helmet” ;)

Bonus: Want Miranda's breather mask? Put numlock on and press 4 on your numpad on the Normandy and you can find the mask in the locker. Out on a mission? Press 7 and it will open up the armor screen! You should now have Miranda's breather mask available in the helmets section. I find the mask/morinth armor combo doesn't work unless the mask is chosen on a mission pressing 7, but you can try to experiement. The armor definitely shows in missions if you have a regular helmet, visor or the added earrings on :)

Want your Shepard to look like mine? I added Nikita Shepard Headmorph into the optional files section.It works for the whole trilogy. Download it. Use Trilogy Save Editor. Find the safe file you want to edit and open it. Go to Headmorph section and press Import. Find the Headmorph you downloaded. Overrite the save you opened and that's that! Done :) I've edited her face alot in The Trilogy Editor program. Thankfully you won't have to, the headmorph will have all my edits. Some edits I've done on her is make her mouth less wide and given her a bunch of default Femshep textures. Lashes, skin etc.

Uninstall

Replace modded Coalesced file with the original file you hopefully backed up or verify your game if your game is on Steam.

Issues

Armor doesn't show in squad menu (I recently noticed if I choose an earring in the helmet slot and a matching one in the shoulder slot the armor shows in the squad menu screen!)
Original version doesn't have armor stats. If you downloaded the original file, I'd recommend downloading a newer version with armor stats. Just replace the first version in your CookedPCConsole.

Samara and Morinth will have glowing white eyes from time to time. Samara's eyes seem normal on the Normandy.

Mod not showing in game after a Mass Effect: Legendary Edition update? The update probably replaced the Coalesced file, so just replace the Coalesced file again with the modded Coalesced file.
