How to recreate your unimportable Mass Effect 2 character in Mass Effect 3

Posted About 12 years ago. Visible to the public.

This happens when your Mass Effect 2 character actually originated in Mass Effect 1.

  • Go to Mass Effect Tools Show archive.org snapshot
  • Follow the insanely convoluted instructions (it involves signing up at another web site).
  • You should end up with a list of the customization options you chose and a "face code" like in the attached PDF.
  • Create a new character in Mass Effect 3.
  • Enter the face code you got from the Mass Effect Tools.
  • Manually change the settings that couldn't be exported from Mass Effect Tools (they were marked with **** in the output). This is the hairstyle, colors and makeup options.

Note that instead of creating a new character you can also change an existing Mass Effect 3 character's face.
