Revision as of 16:04, 18 February 2019
Attempt 1
Failed. Forgot to make a metalog.
Failure symptoms:
- First mission has only 4 soldiers
- CTD as I launched the mission
Attempt 2
Based on my experience modding Mass Effect 1/2/3, my failure probably was caused by conflicting mods. So in this attempt I will attempt a bisecting.
