📋 About This Mod

IMPORTANT: These mods were made using the Alpha version of Frosty Editor available via the Frosty Discord and require the Alpha version of the Mod Manager to load. Update 2024: This should now work in the public release of Frosty Mod Manager.

Ryder's Wardrobe Edit

A collection of edits to female Ryder's wardrobe. Most have been done by other modders in some form but I made this combination to my own preference.

- Longsleeve basic - replaced with Cora's shirt and Peebee's trousers, edited slightly to include a Pathfinder patch on the sleeve. I never could resist a big pair of stompy boots! Note that the trousers don't tint. They're just always black.

- Shortsleeve basic - rolled up sleeves version of Cora's shirt and Peebee's trousers. Does not include the Pathfinder patch.

- By necessity, also switches the trousers for all the other outfits to Peebee's trousers since they share textures

- Athletic outfit - headphone removal

- Jacket outfit - scarf and glove removal. Added the volus necklace from the athletic outfit. Minor edit to the tint map.

- Optional file to switch Shirtless Liam's trousers. By default he uses Ryder's basic casual trousers but I've overwritten the textures for those. This file changes his shirtless mesh to use the same trousers as his casual outfit and redirects it to the matching texture. I had to invert the male full body normal map to match the new mesh so other NPCs that use it might look a little weird.

Wardrobe Default Tint Edit

I'm disproportionately proud of what is actually a really small edit with literally zero impact outside the first hour or so of gameplay. This file will change the default tinting values the game applies to your casual wardrobe. In simple terms, your casual outfit upon waking up in the cryo bay will be a different colour. This will only take effect on starting a new game as presumably the values then get baked into your save data until you change them using the wardrobe. Tested and working for male and female Ryders, both Default Quick Start and Custom. I've changed the colours specifically to match Cora and Liam's casual outfits to go with my wardrobe edit, because I wanted them to look like an actual team instead of two team-mates and some weirdo who showed up in their pajamas. Seriously, I hated that polo shirt.

I've included the project file and instructions for those who want their own colour schemes under optional files. Once you know which values to edit, it's simple enough.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Simple and lightweight—just a couple of mesh edits, so it won't bog down your game.
  • Niche but appreciated: 137 endorsements and 2,865 downloads show a small but active user base.
  • If you're tired of the default look, this gives a subtle tweak without overhauling the whole game.

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in January 2022—might not be compatible with the latest game patches or DLC.
  • Only covers Female Ryder, so male Ryder players get nothing here.
  • No screenshots or detailed previews in the description, so you're going in blind unless you test it yourself.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Mass Effect: Andromeda players who want a minor visual tweak to Female Ryder's outfits without a full overhaul. If you're after big changes or male Ryder support, this isn't for you.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 5 minutes

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure to back up your original game files before replacing anything, so you can revert if you don't like the changes.
  • Check if the mod requires Frosty Mod Manager or if it's a manual file replacement—the description doesn't specify, so read any included readme.
  • If you're using other clothing mods, test this one in a clean save to avoid conflicts.
