Game Freezes once map or war assets in CIC is accessed.

Post by MrBlue36 »

The first problem I have is that the game, even though I have give it the right ME3 path installs in a separate Mass Effect 3 file within the given path..I don't think this causes the problem but it irritates me. The second problem is the one I need the most help with, as the titles says, once I access the war assetes terminal in CIC the game freezes. similarly, once I access the galaxy map, the game allows for controller movement but no button input to exit or choose a system. I ma using a 360 Controller with the Single Player Controller mod as well as Backoff, ME3Rcalibrate and Reshade and sweetfx 2.0.I have run the tests before and the problem does not occur once DLC_CON_MAPMOD is disabled. I will look around ME3Tweaks for help as well.
This happen before I updated the SP Controller to the new version and run the compatibility pack for EGM.

Note: I am using a pirated version of the trilogy from CorePack. I noticed that something was wrong with the game after I run the SP Controller Support from ME3CMM and the CorePack logo animation didn't finish once the game was launched.

Femshep you can ignore the first part of the above. The path issue is just a minor bug in the NSIS installer.

Second part I am not sure what the issue is - it sounds like the EGM Compatibility pack is not correctly working and the player is not getting SP GUIs. I will redo it and see if that works.

MrBlue, I have redone some of the compatibility patch files. Drop the contents into the DLC_CON_MAPMOD_Xbox\CookedPCConsole folder and autotoc.

As you have a cracked game there is a high probability that that maybe the issue. We have had cases before where the mod didn't like cracked exes. Make sure the exe is v1.05. Unless Femshep has any ideas that is all I can do.

The controller mod is not compatible with backoff, me3recalibrated, and I don't support pirated editions. Sorry, but people put thousands of man hours into these games. The least you can do is pay them for their work.

I have paid for all of the games before as well as ll the dlc's with each game as it came out for the Xbox 360. I have completed each game more than 4 times. I love this trilogy and the only reason I am pirating it is to play it with more options on the PC.

I don't see switching platforms as a justifications to pirate the game. People still dedicated time and effort to make it run on PC. Either way I don't support pirated versions of the game because they make unknown modifications that I would have no way to fix nor test with.

I have done this and the issue is still there. I will buy the original game from Origin soon and try it with EGM. Later on today I will try to run just EGM and the controller mod, if it works I will make a backup and add mods individually and see when the game starts to act weird.
