Mass Effect A New Destiny

Overview:

Mass Effect: A New Destiny is an ever evolving total conversion focused on choices and their consequences. Starting a mere few months before the First Contact War, players must chart a course through the galaxy up to the climactic final moments of Mass Effect 3. Will you be a Paragon of virtue? Or will your inner Renegade strike fear into the hearts of your enemies? The mod is nowhere near feature complete, however, it is in a state where I’m comfortable taking it out of beta.

What you aren’t getting:

As this is a pre alpha the above content is pretty much it at the moment. As I said above, this is proof of concept released to get feedback. It will be updated with more events and content over time.

Compatibility:

For the moment this is probably compatible with some popular mods, however, I did not design the mod with compatibility in mind. If you encounter errors involving other mods I probably won’t be able to help. If you are a modder and want to make a patch feel free to do so, as long as you have permission from the other author, but you might want to wait until the build stabilizes a little first.
