Problem with The Arrival DLC status affecting war assets #47

Open levicki opened 2 years ago

levicki commented 2 years ago

If you don't play The Arrival and just mark it as completed in ME2 save using the ediotr and if later import that save to ME3, your war assets for 103rd Marine Division will say that they destroyed the relay and suffered heavy losses instead of Shepard.

There must be some other plot variable missing which the game is checking for this.

@KarlitosVII I found the problem.

This is a ME2 save where I used your editor to mark Arrival as complete: image

However, if you check the Raw Plot of that save you will see that the mission is not marked as completed: image

As a result, importing this ME2 character to ME3 results in Arrival not being imported as completed by Shepard which in turn leads to loss of 103rd Marine Division War Assets: image

It would be nice if you fixed this.

@KarlitosVII

This plot number is incorrect.

7451 is defined as something totally unrelated in raw plot database.

What you want is 7436 which is defined here.

So the fix is to just edit me2_plot_db.ron and replace 7451 with 7436.

DLC_EXP_Part02 is still arrival. If any that's more like of a mission "accepted" than really completed.

@mirh Sorry, I mixed up the numbers — 7436 should be set, it's the plot conditional the game checks for DLC completion in regards with war assets: image

EDIT: I have updated the above posts to show correct information now.
