Coalesced.bin

I played multiplayer when the game came out and then finished off the single player campaign with the edited coalesced.bin, i just bought the dlc and now I want to play multiplayer again, though i checked the coalesced.bin file and it says last modified is 3/10/2012

So I also found another file in the same directory names coalesced.bin.original, it is last modified 2/15/2012

Im thinking that this coalesced.bin.orginial is a leftover file from the bin editor so that in the future i can go back to original settings

So the questions are,

-is there a place i can download a new coalesced.bin to be safe?

-is the coalesced.bin.original part of the game or part of the editor program?

-can i rename the coalesced.bin.orginal to coalesced.bin?

    I think "coalesced.bin.original" is a creation of the editor, though it may not be the vanilla if you've modified the file multiple times. I've found that downloading updates, DLC and using repair in Origin will reset the coalesced.bin to the orginal.

    I forgot to mention, i downloaded all the new updates and dlc today and the coalesced.bin seems to not be touched since it kept the modification date, ill try the repair and get back to you,

    thanks

    Okay I repaired and both files still have the old modification date, now i played the game and though my single player characters still have a rediculas ammount of credits, I thought towards the end that i shortened the cooldown of adrenaline rush to similar to ME2 and it is alot longer,

    maybe it repaired without adding a last modified date?

    The credits are connected to the save file. If you had bound keys set it might be better to start a new game and see if the bindings are still active...this would also give you a better reading on the credits.

    I started a single player and it looks like same regular playthrough things, i believe i also made sniper rifle consume no amo per shot so i believe its fixed and hopefully i dont get banned on multiplayer,

    thank you
