are we talking affects or variables here?
anyway, i _think_, as i dont usually hack games till ive finished them a few times, that changiong ANOMENMATCH to 2 would set the romance to active, as in complete. try setting it to 1. you might have to mess with a lovetalk varialbe as well.
and the gay NPC thing has already crossed my mind, in relation to another post. i think Darth Bob actually did it. IIRC it worked fine for him. go for it.
i would start a legit romance and see what changes though, safer that way. easier than just changing variable at random.
PS sorry about the delay, fought a major war yesterday, coudnt get on-line at all. plus evil people hogged the phone. looks like i may be going off-line permanently tho.
