[LewyJudge12]

Hey guys, I have a ME map on the go at the moment, wondering if I should finish it:

[b] It's not meant to be an exact copy + I'm only making the Presidium! Not the whole citadel! [/b]

dammit Phaedon

[Breadman]

Thanks guys.

[phaedon]

The Mass Effect Chronicles forums are dead, but the project is alive, so nothing to worry about.
We have a backup, but php is being a pain in the ass and for some reason every time we try to restore the backup the session times out.

Any help is appreciated.

[editline]18th April 2011[/editline]

Nevermind.

I already have my N7 Shirt :frogc00l:

Just throwing this out there:
A few threads ago someone made an edited rainmeter enigma skin.
Does anyone know specifically which thread? I used it for a while but recently did a fresh install of windows and lost it

[QUOTE=-Ben_Wolfe-;29276685]They should make sunglasses that look like Garrus' visor.[/QUOTE]

I'd buy the fuck out of that.

I have one of the Cerberus shirts they don't sell anymore, the graphic renegade shirt, and a N7 hoodie.

I like how the good ME clothing isn't painfully obvious. I mean, if you're walking around with one of the ones that has a quote on it or Tali, then yeah, it screams nerdy as fuck. However, things like the hoodie and whatnot are perfectly socially acceptable. I've had people ask me where I got my hoodie/what brand it is and whatnot. Hell, I wore my Cerberus shirt when hitting the heavy bag one day and a guy asked me "What organization did you get that shirt from?" since it says "Humanity first," on the back.

Ok, 3rd try to make sweet FemShep. Thanks to Tayasha for face code.

Apparently, FEBO is a well known snackbar in the Netherlands.

If you have a BSN account, you might want to check [url=http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/103/index/7120430/1]this[/url] out.

It's a centralized locations for ideas about the 'new' Normandy, and so far, there are quite a few nice suggestions. Hopefully Bioware will take notice of the thread.

[QUOTE=Zezibesh;29269919]Oh? Because I had credits falling out of every cupboard and shelf on the Normandy by the end of the game, and I had bought everything there was to buy[/QUOTE]

I had over 2 million credits by the time I faced the collectors and this was on Veteran. I could only find enough eezo to get by, had an extreme amount of other resources, and mined out pretty much.

I've always wondered if people from BioWare look to outside forums for ideas for the next game. I mean only looking internally at BSN would seem sorta lazy, but at the same time, it could be hard to comb your way through everything on the interwebs to find a good source... like here.

... I am in no way biased.

[MaverickIB]

Eezo isn't hard to find in ME2 at all.

Blue/green planets with oceans and whatnot tend to be abundant in eezo.
