The assets for this mod are from the bridge of the cruiser that Aria T’Loak was commanding at the start of the Omega DLC. OR the Dreadnought that Hacket is commanding throughout ME3. You can also see the entrance to the escape pods that were used when She and Shepard abandoned ship. Great use of those assets btw.

The level is completely designed ground up by the Author with in game assets, the voice lines are unused/reused dialogue from all the games mashed up and cut together pretty well. The character animation while walking and during gameplay is still in Engine, so it's just walking with the characters like normal, but the animations in the cutscene can be generic stock footage of Shepherd or it can be custom animated. This is a combination of pre rendered in game assets and good editing. From what I can tell, there is very little or no AI scripting here. No NPC's are needing to move from one area to another so it's a more basic version of Modding, although I'd not be capable. Good looking work here

I keep thinking im about to discover something new but bam its another mod because the title is misleading

One thing that bothered me about ME:Andromeda is that they never explained how the ODSY drive was invented. It seems suspicious that after thousands of years of interstellar travel, only NOW, when the galaxy is about to be reaped do they figure out how to make FTL that didn't have a limited range. My theory is that it was reverse engineered from Sovereign. Regular Mass Effect drives were designed based on Prothean relics, which only survived entirely because the Reapers wanted the technology of the next cycle to develop along the paths they wish. They used the Mass Relays to control which systems the Milky Way species could access, so they used the relics to bias them towards a drive technology that can't recycle it's own charge. There should have been a log entry that reflects this, someone commenting on how the ODSY drive is so fundamentally different from conventional drive cores, it's no surprising it took this long to develop, and it's a miracle that they developed it at all, as it ignores drive cores principles they thought were ironclad.
