Hey, thanks for this mod! I wanted to point out that Dr Chakwas doesn't say the line where she mentions Shep is lucky to have L3 implants as a Biotic from the LE1 Community patch fix. I thought it might be the NPC edits for Dr Chakwas uniform, but with trial and error that wasn't the case. Disabled just this mod and dialogue plays normally.
It also conflict with the mentioned mod: NPC Edits Dr Chakwas Alliance Uniform as pointed out by someone below. It seems the other mod overrides this mod.
Thank you so much for this mod! I loved using it on my last ME1 playthrough.
Is it possible to add a terminal like this to the Normandy in ME2? I know there are already ways to do this in-game on the Normandy for Shepard and at the Shadow Broker base for squad members, but it would be really helpful to not have to complete Lair of the Shadow Broker in order to respec squad members, especially since I like saving that mission until the end after the suicide mission.
A squad respec terminal on the Normandy or a research option for squad respec in the lab would be an extremely helpful mod.
If Shepard has any unused talent point, when I selected any Human or Non-Human Squadmates in the dialogue choices, I got the talent profile of Shepard instead of the other squadmate I selected. Shepard's assigned talent points in the profile were not cleared, and I can assign the unused talent points from that point.
If I selected Shepard form the dialogue, then it sent me to Shepard's profile, and the assigned talents were cleared, (i.e., the mod worked correctly.)
After I assigned and used all of Shepard's available talent points, then selecting a Human or Non-Human Squadmate worked correctly. It sent me to the selected squadmate's profile, and his/her talent point assignments were cleared.
i.e., my Shepard had one unused talent point when I came across the problem. The problem went away after I used that one point.
2. Suggestion:
When everything was working correctly: selecting Shepard or any squadmate would immediately clear all his/her assigned points. Sometimes, I do not want to respec Shepard or a squadmate. I just want to assign unused talent points for a squadmate, or I just want to check out a squadmate's specs and talents. The game does not have a way for me to do this.
The game does NOT have a way for us to look at a squadmate's profile or assign talents for a squadmate while Shepard is on Normandy. This is a major oversight of the game. People have been complaining about it for years. The Legendary Edition did not fix that problem.
Here is the suggestion. The dialogue should add an extra step so it has three steps (or stages):
Step One: the Computer Console ask if Shepard would like to REVIEW or RESPEC a squad member:
Step TWO: the Computer Console asks Shepard to choose a squad member: SHEPARD, HUMAN, or NON-HUMAN.
Step Three: if HUMAN or NON-HUMAN is selected, then the choices of the HUMAN or NON-HUMAN squad members are presented.
That should give us a way to assign talent points for a squad member on Normandy (without having to respec.)
Select any squadmate to respec, then exit the respec console without assigning all the talent points; then, select the same squadmate to respec again, and the previously unassigned talent points would be carry over and added to the new pool of unused talent points.
(Not sure if selecting Shepard would have the same problem.)
In case anyone has my issue where they went to the medbay and the respec console was off and not interactable: if you have the Dr. Chakwas Alliance Uniform Mod installed from NPC Edits (LE1), that mod overrides this one in the medbay. Disabling the Dr. Chakwas Alliance uniform mod temporarily worked fine enough to get my respecs done.

- Review
- Respec
Please choose a member for review / please choose a member for respec:
- Shepard
- Human
- Non-Human
and then, for Human an Non-Human:
- Kaiden, Ashley
- Garrus, Wrex , Tali and Liara
(Sorry, can't remember their last names)
Also, Steps 2 and 3 should have a choice for going "Back" one step.
Select any squadmate to respec, then exit the respec console without assigning all the talent points; then, select the same squadmate to
respec again, and the previously unassigned talent points would be carry
over and added to the new pool of unused talent points.

I am running 3 other mods, LE1 Alternative bodies, LE1 Community Patch, LE1 Streamlined Weapon Loadouts.
Anyone else having problems?
Very happy with this respec mod! Thank you :D
this is a best QoL mod for LE1 I've searched
