  1. I went to go load up my game the other day, and since I was stupid enough to elicit the assistance of an EA rep to change my account over to a different username, I have finally paid the price. Everything worked fine until the other day when all the licenced DLC I had: Stone Prisoner, Warden's Keep and Blood Dragon Armor, were locked out as unauthorized, even though they'd worked ever since the account switch. I sent a nasty email to EA, and they sent me instructions to fix the problem. The fix worked, BUT WIPED HOWEVER MAKER-KNOWS-HOW-MANY DLCs I've downloaded from the Nexus, so I've just spent the past three hours reinstalling them.

    -----I NEED HELP FINDING THESE TWO FILES ASAP PLEASE PM OR EMAIL ME!!!!------

    The first file I need is called DEMO_TUTORIAL. I don't know what it is or does but I know that the game runs wonky without it and the last time I needed to reinstall it the only way I found to do it was reinstalling the game, which I AM NOT DOING AGAIN!.

    The second file is a single file containing two of my favorite daggers, Pestilence and Rot. I've looked everywhere for the container file in my hard drive and on Nexus and cannot find the container file anywhere.

    -----IF ANYONE CAN PROVIDE LINKS TO THESE FILES I WOULD BY MOST HUMBLY THANKFUL-----

    Oh, and when is someone gonna get on the ball and make these two armor textures:

    Boba Fett

    Slave Leia

    Get with the program! ;)

     

    the demo tutorial is from installing the toolset if i am correct.

    here is the link for those two daggers http://www.dragonagenexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=1210

    it is under the name Rogue Goodies

  2. Seriously, apart from the fact that it crashes in the middle of doing something often enough, I have hada not once but twice 'unable to connect to database' error messages and in searching for solutions (the one I used appear now only to have been temporary) I have seen that many, many people using toolset experience similar and/or identical problems.

     

    I mean this completely seriously: if I were Bioware I would be embarassed by all the problems the great and wonderful toolset has. It is difficult enough to learn the scripting and all that but if it doesn't even work properly, what can you do?

     

    Has there been ANY hint that Bioware would release a 'patched' (as it were) version of toolset?

     

    In the mean time I will have to solve this database connect nonsense AGAIN! :blink:

     

    I feel your pain. And my guess as to whether BioWare will fix it, no. If I remember correcctly, the toolset for KOTOR had similar issues that I don't think was ever addressed. At least my experience with it was not pleasant.

     

    I can't even use the bloody thing now! even though it was working fine last night! and I had ALREADY fixed the SQL problem. (or thought I had).

     

    Imagine if Honda made cars like that. Half the time they broke down in the middle of driving and a decent percentage of the time you couldn't even start the car and had to replace the engine. I mean what the hell is that?!

     

    Now even if I get it to work, what assurance do I have that the next day it won't have the same problem?

     

    I apologise if this is a bit of a rant but it is SO frustrating! :confused:

     

     

    start the server configuration thingy from sql.

    make sure all database instances are enabled on all databases.

    if they aren't enable them.

    if they are exit the configuration manager

    start the toolset

    should now work (at least it does for me)

     

     

  3. I'll add my two bits, for what its worth. I'd love to try out an Arcane Warrior that didn't concentrate on trying to tank in massive armor. Considering the origin of the technique (that is, it is an ancient elven practice) the idea of massive-armored Arcane Warriors always struck me as being...off.

     

    If anyone got it in their head to make Medium armor with stats clearly intended for Arcane Warriors (spellpower and mana regen spring to mind), I'd be in the line to download their stuff in two shakes. If they used elven meshes, well that would just be gravy, now wouldn't it? :)

     

    I'll have to check out the Ivory Tower. Thanks for mention it, DirtyRick.

     

    i see what you mean here. i always thought of aw's as being a mage who when can get in an out as fast as possible while dishing out powerful spells and decimating the enemys with a sword. the idea of them being a tank is kinda stupid. for medium armors why not try armor of the chaotic blue. it has both good mage stats and non mage stats. no sword sadly but other than that it would be perfect.

  4. i have the ability to (learned all those things) but for now i am being a pure blood mage. i use orglove's spells quite often but because i am a blood mage they have a heavy price. i have 800 health and the wrath of god cost the most at 570mp which is hp with blood magic. so i really have to time when i use his spells if i use them at all. (i love 200 magic, 150 spellpower and constitution)
  5. i myself am not a modder but from what i have seen on other people's posts. they talk about how difficult this engine is to learn and they all seem to have trouble making mods like that. as someone else said about 80% of what could be done and of what people knew how to do had to be thrown out of the window because of the vast difference in engine types.

     

    so on topic, i do not think anyone at this time has the skill (i may be wrong) to make a fully custom castle.

  6. i found something that offsets my 126 magic 100 willpower and 100 constition. orgolove's spells. i have the cost so high that on the wrath of god i can only use at the begginign of a battle because it drains my health by 3/4 cause of blood magic. and man do i need these spells to even get past a yellow named creature. died 20 times against the ogre before i finally just used wrath of god on it and boom insta kill

     

    Yeah I am beginning to see what you mean...I think I had something blocking the difficulty. I am doing a mage right now, still in the tower repository.

     

    I wanted to start doing a 'classic mage' sword and staff...Blood Mage/Battle Mage/Keeper....without any extra spells but it was too difficult; then I tried Arcane Warrior/Blood Mage/Battle Mage, gave myself the full 2H talent tree and I couldn't hit land a hit!

     

    So now I am thinking I might be justified in using both Orgolove's Shapeshifter mod and Spells...because it is that hard now!

     

    if you do pump up your constitution you will need it i know i do

     

     

     

  7. star have you tried the mod awakening in the oc? you have to have awakening installed to get it but it transfers all the new specs, skills, and talents to your characters in origins and the mods that put warrior talents for aw also give once you put those two optional files into the main folder

     

    I have it yes. I always play with Awakening in the OC. I was just saying that warriors basically lost their purpose to me when an Arcane Warrior can completely take over the role...maybe I am just a purist...

     

    ah okay

    i myself love the 2 handed talents but i hate the warrior base skills i wish i could have a 2handed rogue but that makes no sense at all

  10. it sounds difficult. i am bored so i am going to try and make one. i have this idea that would be really easy to do. i want to have a staff that is a black staff with a white diamond on top that is floating there. at least i think if would be easy to do.

     

    There you would be wrong. :tongue:

     

    Toolset only works with ingame models and to my knowledge that one does not exist ingame. To do what you want to do, you would have to use a 3D programme like blender, export it to that programme, do the mesh and bring it back. That is not easy! :thumbsup:

     

    i have a 3d image i just created of what i want in 3ds max. now i just need to figure out what to do now

  12. after 12 hours of deleting, downloading, installing multiple things many times i have FINALLY GOTTEN THE TOOLSET INSTALLED AND WORKING YAY FOR ME

     

    Welcome to the Nightmare called Toolcrap (or alternatively Tollsht)...

     

    If you say you have no scripting talent then the only thing it will be good for is helping you in swallowing aspirin. :thumbsup:

     

    I know it has helped me in this regard.

     

    what was wrong was really easy to fix. i had msxml 4.0 xp sp3 when i needed msxml 6.0 sp2

    took about 2 hours to fully delete all files found and all registry entries (i messed up like 40 times)

  13. i gots a question. could you put together a guide explaining what each thing in the base files for this is? like if i wanna make it harder(to compensate for my insane magic, constitution, and willpower score) how i would go about doing this?
  14. i think i might lower my magic score right now with equips it is around 280 with 193 constitution and around 270 willpower(this is with no extra attribute points only solely from leveling my character to level 25 and i think it is something you included but 2 points per one put in
  15. i need a program to edit erf files. i am trying to figure out how to incorporate the awakening in the oc mod with two handed abilities for aw but my toolset is glitched and i can't figure out how to get it working (something about the server not connecting, have tried all fixes people have posted and none have worked)
  16. en4cer i did download that and it is awesome. my problem now is that i like the Armageddon spells but i want to lower their power but i have no idea how. i already increased spell cost but it is still to powerful in retrospect. in example i cast entropic death. i do around 1k damage per hit on a mob of about 10. i kill the mob in 2 hits. way to powerful.

     

     

    if you could tell me how to do this i would greatly appreciate it.
