📋 About This Mod
Dr. Liara T'Soni is without a doubt the character that most redesigns has received throughout the trilogy. Skintone, eye color... But worst of all, she shapeshifts within the same game... Mass Effect 2. With the Legendary Edition I had hoped Bioware would have addressed a consistent look for her across the trilogy, but they decided to retain the original look of each game and DLC.
As I already did for Mass Effect 1 and 2 in Liara Consistency Mod (ME1LE) and Liara Consistency Mod (ME2LE), after years of requests I have finally figured out how to develop this mod in the least painless way for both mod creators and users alike; thus finally offering the true consistent mod in which you can choose her official looks from the original Mass Effect and Lair of the Shadow Broker DLC for Mass Effect 3. Like my previous mod for MELE1, this one addresses her facial features, as well as body ones for her romance scenes, with corrected skintones and updated body model and textures (thank you stasismind!). No further changes are introduced to her. This mod is not a simple texture swap like others on Nexus, but a faithful recreation of her face, eyes, and body materials from the latter games in Mass Effect, making her truly be seen as on those entries.
This mod requires and is compatible with the LE3 Community Patch. Every content mod featuring Liara is compatible and will show her true consistency. Are you a mod developer and are you worried about future compatibility or if your old mod is compatible? Worry not, as long as Liara's material paths are untouched by your mod (and why would they be if keeping her original skin?), this mod edits will show with your modded content. This means that popular mods like EGM, PV or any armor mods for Liara will just work with your desired facial choice.
Mass Effect 1 version can be found here and Mass Effect 2 one here.
Installation
This mod REQUIRES to be installed with the latest ME3Tweaks Mod Manager version by Mgamerz. 9. 0. 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. Upon installation you will be prompted with 2 choices based on your preference of Liara's face: Mass Effect 1 OR Mass Effect 2 Lair of the Shadow Broker.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: this mod installation choices actually install two entirely different mods. If you are reinstalling and want to change Liara's face option, you must make sure to Disable/Delete the other mod first. Otherwise
This mod adjusts Liara's facial appearance in Mass Effect 3 to match her original look from Mass Effect 1 or her Lair of the Shadow Broker appearance from Mass Effect 2. It makes no other changes to her character. A focused cosmetic fix for players who prefer her earlier design.

💡 Beginner Tips
