Thank you grand!

I fixed the syntax errors in the mod, works now but I only tested it for 30 min or so as the geth.
Paste the "media" (\Mass Effect Overhaul fixed\media) folder over the existing mods "media" (\SteamLibrary\steamapps\workshop\content\270150\678279682\media) folder

Feel free to do what ever you want with the files I was just feeling nostalgic and got sick of not being able to play it again

Think this mod is dead now. States it isn't being updated anymore and getting errors when launching.

is there a way to fix this?

How is conquest custom? It seems completely vanilla to me, all the same maps, or is that normal?
