Mass Effect Legendary Edition Windows game

Hey ModDB community! We've released the 1.5.1 update of the LE1 Community Patch. Sadly I've missed releasing several versions of the mod on this site, but we're back on track. For this I sincerely apologize. This changelog contains all the changes since the 1.3 version (the last version posted here).

ME3Tweaks Mod Manager v8.1 is now required to install this mod, as we take advantage of extra features with this update.

General:

Added a Mod Settings Menu accessible from the pause screen, similar to the one included in LE3 Community Patch. Mods can extend this to add their own submenus in a similar manner. Several bugfixes in this mod have been made optional and can be configured through the menu. Huge thanks to DropTheSquid for taking the lead on this project.

Integrated the Persistent Options mod for LE1. This will add an FOV option to the settings menu of the game

Powers will now fill all available slots on the action bar, resolving an issue where Liara could not use Overload, and Sentinel, Engineer, or Adept players could at times not use their bonus power.
