Hello,I was curious as to if there are any Mass effect mods. I'm working on a reaper class ship design and was hoping to use more effective weaponry.

A-potential-versatilist There isn't.
The problem is as with a Halo mod or an Expanse mod is that the weapons and all are generic and can be sourced from pretty much any mod. The difference is purely the part's look. That's why there's been little interest for me and others to bother.
So you have to suggest specific parts that are unique in some way and maybe someone will take it up or create your own mod.

Lafiel (A-potential-versatilist dont get exited just yet) Lafiel, doesnt your mod have some mass effect weapons?

A-potential-versatilist In Mass Effect, the ships just fire things from the hull tbh, just the big weapons are visible, like this one:

And this is under the ship, so it wouldn't be visible,
Everest Class have a big gun too, but is...

Lafiel generic

You can make it with Krooms Forge

    Roasted Yes, but they are pretty much phaser/guardian beam variants without any of those function options. The only reasons I added them because tech4 didn't have much so they kind of fill the gap of availability and stats.

    IvanBerni Those guns can be represented by vanilla's railgun or Abh's (early day's) medium railguns or the BSG main battery railguns or any of Abh's modular accelerator weapon that suits the function and effect you want.
    Building things doesn't necessary need to have the exact part custom made you can always simulate it by using similar functional parts. That's the beauty and challenge of these type of building game.

      Lafiel Yes, Everest Class Dreadnought weapon can be created like @Weakpoint did here

      But the Normandy Thanix Cannon is more like a blue Beam weapon, so, can't be properly made in vanilla

        IvanBerni I don't see why color should be even considered but you can use Abh's antiproton cannon, though, it has superior functionality.

          Lafiel Even if you like the red color, you will need to make a hole in the ship to place a laser

          This is about Mass Effect mods, so saying "it can be done in vanilla" is not very constructive

            IvanBerni For a good mod there will always be a downside implemented. So the only building problem is it has to be a roof/underside weapon and has to have a blue beam. Other than that it's ordinary. For me I can create it in minutes without any spriting. In fact as it so happens I've a (far stretched) similar weapon for this kind of situation in the pipeline for about a year, but I haven't made any sprites yet and it's kind of different... actually it's a family of weapons. Now that walt has fixed half of the buffs, I could make it happen.

            IvanBerni This is about Mass Effect mods, so saying "it can be done in vanilla" is not very constructive

            Exactly, that's why the very first point of business is to justify why you need it if there are alternative options available. Then is whatever makes it different worth the effort (e.g. just color difference). You have to come up with good reasons especially when you don't do any of the work and put it on someone else's shoulders.

              send me the blueprint of the ship here and I will change it believe me as you have seen I have a lot of experience in this business

                if you want to tell me what needs to be changed

                  starwed You are talking about my Normandy? That was my first post in the forum, you can found it in my profile

                    ну я говорил вот про это

                      I meant this ship

                        I would like to see what I can do with my mods and skills from this ship without changing the hull

                          so you can give the drawing to me here

                            I already published the Normandy in other Topic, But anyway, here I pass it to you:

                            Cerberus Frigate Normandy SR-2

                            thank you, I already saw your ship on another forum and also copied it, and copied all your ships, they seemed very beautiful to me, and I modified zephyr-one here look

                            and Yes if you know the game star craft 2 then here are some more ships for you
