1. Mass Effect Configuration Tool
2. Mass Effect Configuration Utility
3. Mass Effect 2 Save Files

Mass Effect 2 is based on Unreal Engine 3 and many settings can be modified in a way similar to Mass Effect, allowing the user to mod, tweak or cheat. Unlike the first Mass Effect, Mass Effect 2's in-game console is locked in a more serious way, but a multitude of effects and in-game commands can be activated through editing configuration files.

PrefaceEdit

Backup Your CareerEdit

Since the release of the trilogy edition, many people have asked how to import save files from ME1. On most PCs the default will be C:Program Files (x86)Origin GamesMass Effect 2Binaries. Start ME2, and you will be able to import your save file from ME1.

Using the modifications described in this article may alter your career permanently. It is recommended to backup your career for the option to revert back later on. The career files are located at:

Windows XP:
X:Documents and Settings%Username%My DocumentsBioWareMass Effect 2Save

Windows Vista/7:
X:Users%Username%DocumentsBioWareMass Effect 2Save

Where X is the drive letter where your Windows system is installed on (usually C:), and %Username% - username that you are logging into the system with.

The career folders are named in the format John_31_Soldier_060310 (first name, psych profile/history, class, date of creation). The ME1 folder contains the Mass Effect save files transferred over by ME2 Configuration Utility.

There is also a profile file called Player1.prf under the same folder in %Username%DocumentsBioWareMass Effect 2BIOGameProfile that you may want to backup. This file stores your achievements and bonus power unlocks.

Disabling DLC Integrity CheckEdit

Some tweaks described in this article require editing (or patching) of DLC files. This may cause the game to detect that the DLC is 'not authorized'. If you experience such error, you may need to do some DLL patching.

Enabling consoleEdit

Mass Effect 2 console can be enabled by using three different methods:

• DLL patching tool mentioned above simultaneously enables in-engine console (default keys: TAB, Tilde). So if you already have that installed, you don't need to do anything else. This is the easiest way.

• Automatically patch main game configuration file (SFXGame.pcc) to remove the lock of game-based console (console use settings from Coalesced.ini). The program for patching can be found here.

• Manually patch MassEffect2.exe to enable engine-locked console (console use default settings). This method requires HEX editor and recommended for advanced users only. Basic instructions are here however are missing a fair amount of detail. Step by step guide is as follows:
  • Download HxD, which is a hex editor program.
  • Open MassEffect2.exe in HxD, which can be found in <Game Directory>/Binaries.
  • Scroll down to offset row E21730. Use page up and page down to scroll faster.
  • Under columns 04 to 06, the values should read 70 B4 56. Typing over the current values, replace them with C0 0C 54.
  • Hit save, and close HxD.

Note: press '~', tilde key to open 3/4 console in game. 'tab' for single bar console.

(Please note, this hex edit no longer valid in 2019..)

Note: After using the code, any collected upgrade will be added as an extra upgrade ('10' is upper limit).

Weapon UpgradesEdit

These upgrades can't be normally obtained.

Squad Member UpgradesEdit

Ship UpgradesEdit

Warning: It is highly recommended to not use the codes below, because those may be unlocked but during the Suicide Mission they won't have any effect and squad members will die. Also the facial scars can't be healed.

Configuration fileEdit

Coalesced.ini is the main configuration files, designed for easy adjusting the game parameters stored in .pcc files. The file can be found here:

Default location:
C:Program FilesMass Effect 2BioGameConfigPCCookedCoalesced.ini

1. Make a backup before you even move your cursor over it.
2. You cannot edit it with Notepad, or the game will crash on load.
3. Make sure the modified file is exactly the same size as the original, or the game may crash on load. This may depend on your version of the game. You can do this by adding extra spaces to the end of a line, or deleting unnecessary lines from the international keybindings.

If you want to edit the file manually, you will need a text editor that can handle UNIX-format files (e.g., Notepad++) and a way of 'rebuilding' Coalesced.ini after your edits; the method is described here. Another rebuilder created by Corvin666 also exists and is known as the ME2Fixer. If you made your changes and can't compile the file try using this one, works great even if you previously edited Coalesced.ini in Notepad.

Another approach is using a specific utility such as the Mass Effect 2 Coalesced Editor for making changes. The utility takes care of the file's format and CRC, and you can add/remove settings without having to care about the file's length.

BIOGameEdit

[SFXGame.SFXGame]

BIOInputEdit

This section is where binds can be added to the game (or removed. Be careful when doing this.)There are several subsections which describe key bindings during various 'modes' in the game.

Subsections Edit

Bindings format Edit

To add a new bind to any of the above sections, use the format
Bindings=( Name= 'Key name', Command='Command', Ctrl='True', Shift='True', Alt='True')

Ctrl, Shift, Alt commands are optional, if they are not specified default value is 'False'. The most common use for this is to bind a command to the press of single or combination of keys.

Example: adding this to the [SFXGame.SFXGameModeDefault] section will allow the player to take screenshots while on foot by pressing F8:Bindings=( Name= 'F8', Command='Shot' )

BIOWeaponEdit

Weapon PropertiesEdit

See also: #Weapon List

In the subsections dealing with weapon properties, there is a 'base template' section in [SFXGame.SFXWeapon] that defines general weapon properties, which are then overridden by specific weapon settings in the other categories if necessary.

At least the following settings can be used (added if not existing by default):

Shield PropertiesEdit

All non-template shield sections inherit parameters from the base section.

TweaksEdit

Ability to take only certain weapon typesEdit

Now you'll be able to pick only certain weapon types like in Mass Effect 3.

[SFXGame.SFXPlayerSquadLoadoutData]
AssaultRifles=(ClassName='SFXGame.SFXWeapon_AssaultRifle_Base')
Shotguns=(ClassName='SFXGame.SFXWeapon_Shotgun_Base')
SniperRifles=(ClassName='SFXGame.SFXWeapon_SniperRifle_Base')
AutoPistols=(ClassName='SFXGame.SFXWeapon_AutoPistol_Base')
HeavyPistols=(ClassName='SFXGame.SFXWeapon_HeavyPistol_Base')
HeavyWeapons=(ClassName='SFXGame.SFXHeavyWeapon')

[SFXGame.SFXWeapon]
IconRef=0
GUIImage=GUI_Codex_Images.AssaultRifles_512
PrettyName=339532
GeneralDescription=0
ShortDescription=0

Change Player Shield Recharge timeEdit

You can modify shield recharge time to increase/decrease combat pace to suit your play style:

[SFXGame.SFXShield_Base]
ShieldRechargeTime=(X=2.0f,Y=2.0f)
The time shield needed to fully regenerate (in seconds).

ShieldRegenDelay=(X=5.0f,Y=5.0f)
The time before shield start regenerating (in seconds).

Change the values to 0.0 will cause shield unable to regenerate.

This also affects your squad members shield.

Carrying upgrades to New Game+Edit

[SFXGame.SFXGame]
NGPlusPlotVariables=Tec_AssaultRifle
You can grab upgrades plot variables above.

Editing Shepard Template Face CodesEdit

You can add or remove custom Shepard pregenerated codes in the game:

[SFXGame.BioSFHandler_NewCharacter]
MalePregeneratedHeadCodes={Facecode}
FemalePregeneratedHeadCodes={Facecode}

Note: If you have Kasumi DLC installed removing standard face codes will not work, because of rewriting section by DLC .ini file. In this case you have to modify DLC .ini directly.

Changing Power Cooldown TimeEdit

Go to appropriate for your difficulty section:

[SFXGame.SFXDifficulty_Level2]
EnemyPowerCooldownMultiplier=1.0
SquadPowerCooldownMultiplier=1.0

Set the values to 0.0 to completely remove cooldown.

Unlocking WeaponsEdit

There are three ways of unlocking weapons:

1. By setting weapon boolean parameters to true

[SFXGame.SFXGameModeDefault]

Bindings=( Name='NumPadOne', Command='SetIntByName Wpn_GethPulseRifle 1' )

To unlock all normal weapons, add: Bindings=( Name='NumPadOne', Command='SetIntByName Wpn_AssaultRifle2 1 SetIntByName Wpn_AutoPistol2 1 SetIntByName Wpn_Locust 1 SetIntByName Wpn_GethPulseRifle 1 SetIntByName Wpn_HeavyPistol2 1 SetIntByName Wpn_Shotgun2 1 SetIntByName Wpn_SniperRifle2 1' )

To unlock all heavy weapons, add: Bindings=( Name='NumPadTwo', Command='SetIntByName Wpn_CryoBlaster 1 SetIntByName Wpn_GrenadeLauncher 1 SetIntByName Wpn_NukeLauncher 1 SetIntByName Wpn_ParticleBeam 1 SetIntByName Wpn_Flamethrower 1 SetIntByName Wpn_MissileLauncher 1' )

To unlock all Collector Ship weapons, add: Bindings=( Name='NumPadThree', Command='SetIntByName Wpn_SuperAssaultRifle 1 SetIntByName Wpn_SuperShotgun 1 SetIntByName Wpn_SuperSniperRifle 1' )

Unlocked weapons will stay unlocked for subsequent play-throughs for the current career, and it is possible to get all Collector Ship weapons (although you must still have the proper class to actually equip them).

2. By removing or changing weapon dependency conditions

[SFXGame.SFXPlayerSquadLoadoutData]

AssaultRifles=(ClassName='SFXGameContent_Inventory.SFXWeapon_Needler',UnlockPlotID=Wpn_AssaultRifle2)

AssaultRifles=(ClassName='SFXGameContent_Inventory.SFXWeapon_MachineGun',bNotRegularWeaponGUI=true)

Remove bNotRegularWeaponGUI and UnlockPlotID parameters.

If you want to make a special weapon available to your squadmates only when you've unlocked the weapon change the line to:

AssaultRifles=(ClassName='SFXGameContent_Inventory.SFXWeapon_MachineGun',UnlockPlotID=Wpn_SuperAssaultRifle)

You can use the method to unlock all special weapons for your companions. The M-300 Claymore's (SFXWeapon_FlakGun) code is Wpn_SuperShotgun and the M-98 Widow's (SFXWeapon_MassCannon) is Wpn_SuperSniperRifle.

3. By typing in the command 'SetIntByName Wpn_[WEAPON NAME] 1' into the console, with [WEAPON NAME] being whatever the game names the guns. (M-3 Predator is HeavyPistol, etc.)

To unlock the Revenant Machine Gun, type into the console: SetIntByName Wpn_SuperAssaultRifle 1

To unlock the M-98 Widow, type into the console: SetIntByName Wpn_SuperSniperRifle 1

Unlocking Bonus PowersEdit

[SFXGame.BioSFHandler_NewCharacter]
BonusTalents=(PowerClassName='SFXGameContent_Powers.SFXPower_Barrier_Player,AchievementID=*)
Change the AchievementID parameter to AchievementID=1

Unlocking Squad AppearancesEdit

[SFXGame.BioSFHandler_PartySelection]
1stAppearances=(Tag=hench_miranda,PlotFlag=*)
Change the PlotFlag parameter to PlotFlag=-1

Note: If using the ME2 Coalesced Editor SFXGame.BioSFHandler_PartySelection is located under the BIOUI tab

Changing Squad Weapon LoadoutsEdit

You are able to define which weapon classes are available to which player classes and companions.

[SFXGame.SFXPlayerSquadLoadoutData], located under the BIOGame section
HenchLoadoutInfo=(ClassName=SFXPawn_$SQUADMATE,WeaponClasses=(LoadoutWeapons_HeavyPistols,LoadoutWeapons_Shotguns))

Replace the LoadoutWeapons_* list to a comma-separated combination of the following:

Unlimited AmmoEdit

There are four ways to enable unlimited ammo:

1. Open the properties of a weapon (e.g., [SFXGameContent_Inventory.SFXWeapon_Needler] section for the M-15 Vindicator; see the table below for a full list) and change bInfiniteAmmo=false into bInfiniteAmmo=true. The weapon will now spend ammo from the magazine and has to be reloaded, but spare ammo will never decrease. Other weapons are unaffected, so you have to repeat this for all weapons.

   Note: For DLC weapons, you have to edit the BIOWeapon.ini file for the respective DLC. The file will be located in the $ME2_INSTALL_FOLDERBioGameDLC$DLC_CodenameCookedPC folder. Be aware that some DLCs contain more than one weapon; in that case, the bInfiniteAmmo=true line needs to be added to all relevant sections (replacing existing bInfiniteAmmo if any).

2. In the [SFXGame.SFXWeapon] section change AmmoPerShot=1 into AmmoPerShot=0. None of your weapons will spend any ammo when firing and don't need to be reloaded. For M-920 Cain do the same in [SFXGameContent_Inventory.SFXHeavyWeapon_NukeLauncher].
3. Changing the 'reload' binding to ( Name='PC_Reload', Command='SwapWeaponIfEmpty TryReload initammo 999' ) in the [SFXGame.SFXGameModeBase] section. This will refill spare ammunition every time the reload button is pressed. This affects only non-heavy weapons.
4. Changing the 'shoot' combat binding to read ( Name='Shared_Shoot', Command='initammo 999 SwapWeaponIfEmpty FireWeapon OnRelease StopFiringWeapon' ) will reset the player's spare ammunition every time the fire trigger is pressed. This affects all weapons.

Note: If you use the second or fourth method, you won't able to reload your weapon. That will result in inability to make progress in the Lazarus Project medbay (the door won't unlock until you reload). The bInfiniteAmmo tweak (the first method) will force you to empty your clip in order to leave. Once your clip is empty, Shepard will reload the pistol and the door will be opened.

Hybrid Heat/Ammo SystemEdit

It is possible to change the ammo system into a 'hybrid heat/ammo system', in which the weapon will regenerate its ammo when not fired for awhile. (You can consider the 'ammo' as 'how many shots can be made before weapon overheats'.) When the ammo reaches zero, the weapon will automatically reload and consume the spare ammos. (You can consider the reload as 'emergency heat sink / thermal clip ejection'.)To activate this 'hybrid' ammo system:

1. In [SFXGame.SFXGameConfig] set WeaponsUseHeat to true
2. Configure the weapons for 'Unlimited Ammo' using Method 1 in the previous section. The weapons will NOT actually have unlimited ammo; this is needed to turn on the 'hybrid' system.
3. Optionally, you can tune HeatDissipationRate to make the weapons 'cool down' slower or faster; the value for this setting is a float, so you can use fractional numbers.

Note: When you activate this 'hybrid' system, you will no longer be able to manually reload any weapon. Please see the note of the previous section for the impact of this change.

Toggle Command MenuEdit

Note: Modifying this line of code inside Coalesced.ini may crash the game's API or prevent it from loading if you are not careful. See note above about config file size.

The default method to view the HUD screen is to press and hold a key until you want to return to the 'action'. A different approach is to toggle the HUD so it will stay on by pressing a key, and return to the game when the same button is pressed again. To enable Command Menu toggle find the line in [SFXGame.SFXGameModeBase] section.

Bindings=( Name='PC_ExitCommandMenu', Command='OnRelease ExitCommandMenu' )Change it to Bindings=( Name='PC_ExitCommandMenu', Command='ExitCommandMenu' )

More Fuel and Probes for NormandyEdit

Locate [SFXGame.SFXInventoryManager] section in BIOWeapon module and set appropriate values for these variables: MaxProbes and MaxFuel.

Do this before starting a new game and these values will be actual for free: just forget about refueling for whole game. Changing in the middle of the game also works, but with necessity of filling new capacity and spending (a lot of) money.

Collect More Resources From PlanetsEdit

Locate [SFXGame.BioPlanet]. It should contain four variables, EezoMineralsBase, PlacedMineralsPool, RandomMineralsBase, and ScanBarMaxMineralSize. Multiply the values of all of them by the same value, such as 20, to then get that many times more resources from every probe launched onto a planet.

Bind Storm To A Different Key Than Use/CoverEdit

Note: Using this tweak may crash the game's API or prevent it from loading if you are not careful. See note above about config file size.

Locate [SFXGame.SFXGameModeBase] section in BIOInput module, and find the line reading:
Bindings=( Name='Shared_Action', Command='Exclusive Used TryClimbOrMantleCover Exclusive TryAcquireCover OnRelease StormOff OnHold 0.2 StormOn OnTap 0.3 TryExitCover 1' )

Change it to:
Bindings=( Name='Shared_Action', Command='Exclusive Used TryClimbOrMantleCover Exclusive TryAcquireCover OnTap 0.3 TryExitCover 1' )

This will remove storming from the use/cover key. Now, locate the [SFXGame.SFXGameModeDefault] section, immediately below. Add a new line to the bottom of this section:
Bindings=( Name='LeftAlt', Command='OnRelease StormOff OnHold 0.2 StormOn' )
Replace LeftAlt with whichever key you prefer to use.

Skipping Dialogue without Choosing an Unwanted AnswerEdit

On the second and subsequent playthroughs, you may want to skip already-seen dialogue by pressing Spacebar. But there is an unfortunate side effect of accidentally choosing a dialogue option when the dialog wheel appears. This tweak modifies the behavior of Spacebar to only skip dialogue. There are two methods:

Method 1

Locate [SFXGame.SFXGameModeConversation] in BIOInput and change the following line:

Bindings=( Name='SpaceBar',Command='PC_ConvSkip')

into (all in one line):

Bindings=( Name='SpaceBar',Command='set BioConversation m_bSkipRequested true OnRelease set BioConversation m_bSkipRequested false')

Method 2

Find [SFXGame.SFXGameModeBase] in BIOInput and change the following line:

Bindings=( Name='PC_ConvSkip', Command='SkipConversation' )

into (all in one line):

Bindings=( Name='PC_ConvSkip', Command='set BioConversation m_bSkipRequested true OnRelease set BioConversation m_bSkipRequested false')

Fix Field of View (FOV)Edit

Some players feel that the game's default FOV in combat mode is too small; one needs to keep looking around left and right just to gain some situational awareness. Unfortunately, the default FOV is not permanently fixable. However, a workaround to fix the FOV during combat scenes can be done by creating a Binding for the command set SFXGame.SFXCameraMode FOV $N, where $N is the desired value for the FOV: 75 is the game's default value, and it is suggested that values in the range of 90.120 (inclusive) works best.^[1]

For example, to bind the command to the '.' (Period) key, find the [SFXGame.SFXGameModeDefault] section, and add the following:

Bindings=( Name='Period', Command='set SFXGame.SFXCameraMode FOV $N' )

Now, during combat/traveling mode, a press of the '.' key will set the FOV to the value you desire (remember to replace $N with a numerical value). The new FOV value will remain effective until you exit the game.

Temporarily Activate 'NoClip' ModeEdit

Mass Effect 2 is buggy, and one of the bugs is the possibility of Shepard somehow managing to climb to places they shouldn't be able to.. and got trapped there. The only way to exit this situation is to either load a prior save, or to temporarily activate 'No Clip' mode which will allow Shepard to leave the bounding box.

To enable temporary activation of 'NoClip', you can add the following binding to the [SFXGame.SFXGameModeDefault] section:

Bindings=( Name='Backslash', Command='Ghost OnRelease Walk')

Pressing (and holding) the (backslash) key will activate the 'NoClip' mode, enabling you to leave the 'trap' and enter an actual path/area where Shepard should be.

(As usual, you can customize the 'Backslash' key to any key you prefer.)

1. ↑How to actually fix FOV in Mass Effect (archive)

I am playing Mass Effect again but there doesn't appear to be an option to enable a borderless window mode in either the game or the configuration utility, leaving the game running inside of a visible window.

Is it possible to set a borderless window mode either by editing one of the configuration files or using a third party utility or some kind?

2 Answers

Use the following AutoHotKey Script:

When you press ctrl+alt+a it will make the currently active window borderless.

Replace 1680 and 1050 with the size you want the window to be.

Mass Effect does not come with any support for borderless window mode. The only way to do so is to use a third party utility such as ShiftWindow.

There are also ways to do it with autohotkey
