Essential improvements
Adjust all video settings
- The in-game graphics options are missing half of the actual settings, which are thus erratically left to the first run auto-detection to decide.[Note 2]

Change settings in the Configuration Utility |
---|
|
Skip intro videos
- Use Quick Startup mod to also skip the title screen
Delete or rename files |

Shorter loading screens
- The game waits for the loading screen animation to play completely at least once before leading to the gameplay
- Some loading screens might be part of the player experience (e.g. making sense of one's position on the Citadel, or special mission-specific transitions)
Replace .bik clips with shorter ones[7] |
---|
Modify the .bik clips to run at 2x/4x speed (30/60fps)[8] |
---|
Patches
- Patch 1.03 is a cumulative update. The Origin/Steam versions are already patched.
Project Variety
- A major bug fix and overhaul mod. Works best with Early Recruitment.
Game data
- DLC files are saved in
<path-to-game>\BioGame\DLC
; an explanation of the folder names and which DLC they represent can be found here. - Game can lose saves when the
%USERPROFILE%\Documents
path has been customized[9][10]

Notes
|
Game freeze on Illium
- The freeze happens while walking through the ground-level corridor that connects to the other side of the map under Liara's office, which may cause a black screen and CTD.
- In most cases the problem is caused by incompatibility with the video or audio drivers of the user's computer.[citation needed]
Null ill-fated embedded video[41] |
---|
|
Crash during vehicle chase on Illium
- In most cases the problem is caused by incompatibility with the video or audio drivers of the user's computer.
- The crash happens at the end of the taxi chase with Liara on Illium during the cutscene, where the game freezes completely showing either a frozen image or a black screen while the music continues.
Use config tool to change from fullscreen mode to windowed borderless |
---|
Run in Windows 7 compatibility mode |
---|
Launch the game with the -nomoviestartup parameter

Disable the Origin in-game overlay[49] |
---|

Notes
- ↑ The
Touchup.dat
Origin instructions file that is run at install and verification times, will check for previous installations throughHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Bioware\ME2
- ↑ Even in the best case scenario, that still leaves the game sneakily short of the highest quality setting for anisotropic filtering. In the worst (depending on the GPU vendor or reported amount of dedicated memory) this spells demotion to the lowest AppCompat[6] bucket, which lacks spherical harmonics and most of the fundamental character cinematic lights.
- ↑ 3.0 3.1 Stores achievements, bonus unlocks and cross-campaign stats, as well as gameplay, sound and online account settings.[11]
- ↑ 4.0 4.1 Notes regarding Steam Play (Linux) data:
- File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data.
- Use Wine's registry editor to access any Windows registry paths.
