Texmod crashes after 15 minutes of playing

I've started to use Texmod for HD textures when playing Mass Effect 3 (I actually use about 80-85 .tpf files), but it crashes after 15 minutes of playing. Can anyone please tell me why does it happen...

    Thank you very much zet69 but I found a solution just a few minutes ago. Just to let anybody who's reading know what's the problem:

    Texmod can't handle safely more than 50 to 60 files, if you do load more it will likely crash sooner or later. And most important, you have to load only the files you need, especially in terms of large texture replacements like for entire Maps or for clothes used by many people (i mean multifunctional replacements). Remember to always load only the files you need in a particular moment, by doing so you're going to reduce boot time, loading times and save framerate.

    And for your request i'm happy to let you know that graphic modifications, be that they affect multiplayer or not, won't get you banned in any case.

    You can find a pretty big collection of tex replacements in the following BioSocial thread, just make sure you have a capable computer configuration (at least  8 gigs of RAM and 1 of vga RAM) and also make sure you follow carefully the instructions there to deal with Origin (it won't let you play with tex replacements otherwise) and then you'll be up and running in no time 🙂

    Good hunting to you too 😉

Hey there, I was looking around and I found a Bioware Forum and instruction page for Textmod regarding Mass Effect 2. Maybe some of hte issues are carried over anyways because of the nature of the application itself.

Maybe you can find something in there?

Do you think that there are too many mods to load and stuff? I have used it on ME2 and it takes forever to load stuff. That is understandable. It has to load a lot of content and change a lot of things that the Engine and Game was supposed to handle.

Good luck. Oh and, do you know what mods could be used in ME3 without getting banned from online and stuff? I was looking for a list of mods that would work (visual and stuff, not Gameplay). I wanted to see that. No one has gotten back to me. If you know of any, like the Cinema mod, I'd like to know so I can see Tali's beautiful helmet in sexy-3D haha. 🙂

Good hunting and good gaming Shepard.
