The story of Pinnacle Station’s unofficial release is thousands of words long over on ME3Tweaks, and that’s the abbreviated version. It doesn’t sound like Walters’ estimate on time was that far off, with the project taking modder Mgamerz and their team “months of work to complete.” They detailed the experience to PC Gamer, explaining how the whole thing was more than just a port and painting a picture of how massive an undertaking actually fixing the DLC became. In the Nexus Mods description, the team says it was “easier in some regards” to port Pinnacle Station over and mod it since they could use their modding tools. Of course, the development group behind the mod didn’t have access to those files, but they recreated the training facility with the help of the Legendary Explorer modding toolkit, and it sounds like that may have streamlined their experience. Director Mac Walters told Game Informer the only backups they had contained corrupted data and that it would “take another full six months” to remake the experience. ![]() In the lead up to the Mass Effect trilogy’s remastered release, BioWare explained its difficult decision to cut the Pinnacle Station DLC from the new collection. The Mass Effect: Legendary Edition does not officially include the original Pinnacle Station DLC, but a team of modders at ME3Tweaks have restored the lost add-on after BioWare admitted they no longer had access to the source code from developer Demiurge Studios.
