MassAffinity v0.2 released
Well, MassAffinity has done an extreme amount of pleasuring in the last 24 hours, which hopefully means a lot of happy Mass Effect 2 gamers.
Several requests for improvements prompted me to update the app to v0.2. Here’s a list of what’s new:
- Allows you to use an executable name other than the default (for those who have renamed MassEffect2.exe to enable anti-aliasing);
- Automatically detects your ME2 path via the registry;
- Shuts down immediately if ME2 is closed before MassAffinity can apply the fix (previously it would wait ten seconds);
- Added some graphics. Okay… one graphic;
- Added a “Help” button.
That’s it! The functionality remains unchanged, so no need to update if it’s working peachy already. No harm though if you do download it.

Thanks very much for this. Using an E8400 and Vista 32-bit this cut down my loading times from up to a minute to as low as a few seconds.

[...] override the AA settings for Mass Effect 2. I believe this renders the executable rename feature of MassAffinity obsolete… but not the program itself. You’ll still need it to get around the silly [...]
