DLC Timings Mod (ME2LE)

DLC Timings Mod delays most of the former DLC content of Mass Effect 2 through different methods.

• []Normandy Crash Site DLC no longer unlocks immediately after getting the Normandy, but after playing one main mission, helping with the flow of the story and to allow Shepard to be seen and recognized which allows Hackett to contact the player. NEW 2. 1: There is a new option that prevents delaying this DLC to trigger. I personally only recommend it for people using the Legion Module of Early Recruitment Mod who are interested in recruiting him as soon as possible.

  []Lair of the Shadow Broker doesn't automatically unlock after Horizon; but only after you have met Liara and helped her through her quests on Illium first, which are a build up for the DLC. Once you are done, the email will be delivered and upon reading it, the option to start the DLC will unlock with her.

  []Overlord can optionally be delayed to be triggered after Horizon. It REQUIRES acquiring the Hammerhead beforehand, which means playing through the first Firewalker quest (Rosalie Lost). This can be done before Horizon, but the trigger for Overlord won't happen after that. NEW 1. 1: Additionally, there is a new option that JUST REQUIRES acquiring the Hammerhead for the DLC to trigger.

  []Arrival can optionally be delayed at different times. Options include triggering the message from Hackett after finishing the Collector Ship, the Derelict Reaper or, as a bridge to Mass Effect 3 which triggers after BOTH the Suicide Mission and Lair of the Shadow Broker are dealt with. If using Trigger Buttons only the vanilla option will be available to be chosen, so make sure to install that mod first. Else, neither mod will work as intended.

  Installation

  This mod REQUIRES to be installed with the latest ME3Tweaks Mod Manager version by Mgamerz. 9. 1+ is REQUIRED. Make sure you let it update to the latest build after installation, in order to make sure the mod can be correctly installed. It is recommended to install over a vanilla NON textured game.

  The mod is in DLC form, so its installation is as simple as drag and drop the . 7z file into the Mod Manager and let it work its magic. A prompt will show indicating if you want to delay Overlord and Arrival, showing its different options. Only option can be chosen per DLC and it MUST be done before you visit the Normandy for the first time. The mod cannot retroactively remove quests from your journal which you might have acquired already.
