Ok, I beat this game once and due to technical difficulties, I decided to reinstall and update to the 1.1a patch and started a new game. Upon getting to Orzammar, I have come across the following error: after the conversation Oghren has with the guy who explains who Oghren is, he disappears from my game completely. It doesn't matter if I pick Harrowmount or Behlen, Oghren is supposed to next appear in the tavern and then stop you before you go look for Branka but this never triggers. I have several mods from this site, but they shouldn't have any effect on the game - namely hd textures, an extra storage chest (beyond ferelden), and most of the official DLC's. Can someone please help me with this?
Hm, i am not sure i can help you but i shall try. The thing that couses this bug seems to be either the toolset itself or that one uses the console with a "runscript selectparty" command to add or remove party members.
Thats more or less all i could find out doing a quick search on that topic.
There are several Threads on the official forums you might want to check out. No solution guranteed.
Thats the biggest thread i found about it: http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/47/index/163914
and those are others with the same problem:
http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/9/index/317255
http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/47/index/94222
http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/47/index/200249
there are even more to find if you search the forums.
Thats the best solution i found:
There's a way to get passed this. Unfortunately you'll have to force cheat Oghren into your party by using the "runscript zz_addparty Oghren" command just before you go to the Deep Roads.When you've done that you'll go to the party select screen; just click accept (without clicking on Oghren) and he'll pop up. Go back in to your party select screen and deselect him and click accept - you need to do this because otherwise Oghren does nothing. He won't talk to the gate commander and I assume he won't talk when he needs to in the Deep Roads. Anyway, when you go back to the party screen he'll be there. Just select him like you would any other time. Unfortunately you won't get his greeting conversation, but you will get him.
use it at your own risk.
EDIT:
Here are 2 other threads that could be helpfull:
-
I got it solved myself. It is true that the command console only responds to the key in the upper left corner of the keyboard. On a DK keyboard it will be the ESC key. Having the keybindings changed for that, it worked. One more thing, one need to spell the key, not just enter it, when in the keybinding settings. Otherwise it won´t work. It will probably be the same issue all over Europe, since the keyboards changes from country to country. I hope this topic will be helpfull.
Thank you for reporting the solution, this might be helpfull to quite some pepole. (including for myself with a german keyboard layout)

Everyone plays with the skills he likes, if he likes Feign death, so why not let him play with it?
The game offers many ways to use skills effectivly and many tactics you can choose from.
Requesting a mod that lowers the cooldown of this skill is perfectly reasonable for me.
-
the game developpers had to make her smaller. something about she didn't fit in the game engine otherwise
well ok, but even Sten is bigger then her, how does the game engine work with sten then and not with a golem the size of sten?
-
Just delete the corresponding directory of the mod ?
I only have 3 mods so far but it was always simple.
You could think that, but its not that simple actually (atleast not with .dazip-Files), read my guide to learn more about it ( link )
-
Hey great to have you here, i hope there will be more pepole making use of your skills soon =)
all the best

Well the .dazip files are a blessing and a burden in my opinion.
They make it quite easy to install a Mod, this cant be doubted, (i still prefer to copy into the override folder tough), but there is no easy way to uninstall what you installed jet.
In my Guide i covered the 2 Methods that i know of to get rid of them completly (thanks to the contributors that let me know)
But a REAL Uninstaller would help so many Mod users and would definatly also help reduce future problems with conflicting mods.
If anyone gets Information about a uninstaller or additional (hopefully Easy) ways to get rid of a mod installed via .dazip-files
(that are not covered jet in my guide) PLEASE let me know so i can add that most helpfull info into my guide.
Thank you for your Attention :thanks:

Vagrant, I'm not so sure about the requirement to have 5 non-image uploads. There are some very savvy end users who do not build mods or Publicly release their mods.
I second this, i consider myself mentally fit to rate a mod fairly, and i have not much knowledge about how to mod.
I dont think its about if you know how to mod, its more about manners and if you are able to give fair feedback.
There are alot of good points tough in your posting Vagrant =)
-
Well i would like to see the size of Shale reduced to pocket size, like a pet, wouldnt that be awesome?
A cute mini golem that hits your enemies like a big one?
Or even smaller, so she fits in the inventory and you can just throw her out and make one hit kills with her?
...
...
...
ok this was oviously a joke :teehee:
She needs to be bigger, i know its explained in the story that she was bigger once and all... but i still want a BIG Golem =)
-
... I personally hate the aesthetics of the armor itself....
Thats what he says why he would want to replace the model.
I can understand him i am also not a big fan of that special armor, there are many better looking ones that are in the game.

This option will appear when you've achieved 500 posts or more on the forums or mods sites (the posts on all Nexus sites as you probably know all count as one grand total). Keep posting and before you know it, you'll be able to have your own special title. :wink:
Allright i thought so, thank you for helping me =) :thanks:

So what is my two main Q..???
1. Can the Keyboard, mouse, mapping be changed via Hud as ones sees fit, where the mouse controls your attack or action function, ect.or is it fixed to WASD etc..and fixed mouse controls also..
2. Is it 3D like Oblivion, and Fallout3 ect...Eh is it not like tiny look down on people, but close up and personal..you know what I mean I hope!!
You want to play on the pc right? just to be sure =)
1. You can change the keybindings in the options Menue of the game, not sure if it will accept YOUR specific input devices, but i assume it should when these are working and have correct drivers in windows.
2. It is 3D yes, but it isnt a "Free roam" Game like Oblivion or Fallout 3, you have a Map and Locations, and you travel between them with loading screens. You can scroll in and out with the mousewheel so the distance is variable.
-
Seen you around, and I had the audacity not to say hello... Well, that's about to change.
Welcome to Nexus! :cool:
Thats nice of you, thank you and hello as well. :thanks:
May i sak you a question? Or anyone who might have the time to answer...
Ive seem members that have Titles under their pictures, like you have "Tu Pordenta" ... i couldnt find that in the options,
so i guess its a postingcount activated feature or earned through something else?
I am sure there is somewhere a help topic about it but i havent located it jet =)

Hi, can anybody make mod which makes helmets non visible? Simply I do not want to see a helmet on my character head.
Would you settle for unequipping them outside combat?
It has a few minor issues here and there, but nothing game-breaking, and otherwise works perfectly.
Here is the Thread for this request: http://thenexusforums.com/index.php?showtopic=163612
And i dont want to settle for that mod, i want a toggle via inventory screen to make it visible and invisible.
:smile:
-
Well i havent played the game jet enough to give you a big comment on it,
i spent most of my time on my guide and learning stuff for the toolset and trying to help others with problems...
maybe i should get to the game and play it sometime :P
But my facts:
Its not the game that i expected it to be, i am a big Baldurs Gate Fan and this has in my opinion as much to do with Baldurs Gate, as Need For Speed games have to do with searious racing simulations.
There is no D&D Rulework more behind the game, the lore is ... well not bad, but not the huge backstory that BG had.
It is in its own surely a good game with some flaws. But to name it a sucsessor of BG is in my eyes nothing more than a Marketing Gag with nothing behind it.
The combat is too fast in my opinion, i liked allways turn based encounters, but well i guess real time sells better and most pepole like it more.
The graphics are nice, but not outstanding and the outside aereas i saw deffinattly left me unimpressed if not dissappointed. The Faces and the Inside Aereas look good from what i have seen jet.
Besides that i deeply hate Electronic Arts, i absolutly hate that company and now they bought Bioware, a company i allways loved... i am not sure what to think about it, but i think the "turn to the Evil side" has allready begun for bioware, with that laughable Social site with a million flaws, and the DLC that is ... very moderate to a not so moderate price, and i guess its only there so you have to register your game if you want it and that makes your game unsellable if you want to resell it (not that i do, but in general).
As you said you feel like the game was rushed, it deffinatly was, they had even to make a callback action in germany and austria (not sure bout other countries) for the games in retail becouse they somehow messed up something with the discs that made them unplayable, at least thats what they said. I am sure Bioware wants the best and wanted the players to have a good game but i am also sure EA pinned them down to a release on time and there wasnt enough time to get everything fixed and finished. All in all i guess it was a quite solid release, ive seen many more worse lately, Section8 and Borderlands just to name 2 that had quite some trouble on the pc.
And the toolset... i wait for the version that will actually work on my pc.
hm... well thats mostly all what i can say about the game...
its like eating a big bowl of ice cream that has small stones in it... it can be delicious but you have to be carefull not to swallow a stone... that can ruin the whole experience...
I surly will play more, and till the end, but i am pretty sure this game wont be a keeper for all time for me like it oblivion for example was.
about this thread:
... i wonder... how is this Thread different from the one in this same forum: "So, how do you like Dragon Age?"
isnt it about the same... maybe this could be merged with the other tread? or did i overlook something?
-
Works now: i had the Shapeshifter mod installed, for wich you needed to edit the AddIns in the Dragon Age/Settings folder. Once I swapped it with my back-up again it worked ;)
Oh i am glad you could resolve your issue, and i am even glader you let us know how you got it working so it may benfit others.
:thanks: and have fun playing DA =)
i am having the same problem, although not with steam. Da Updater worked before but now whenever I try to install something, it crashes.@ cartman2790: can you please give more details about your problems?
- What operating system are you on?
- Have you Admin rights with the windows account you use and acsess to all folders/files the installer could use? (including desktop)
- Maybe a third party program is blocking the daupdater?
- If you have a Log from your daupdater could you post it please? (second tab, after the install failed or sucseeded there should be a deatailed log there)
- Did you experience this with all .dazip-files or just with a specific one?
- Have you installed or messed with the toolset?
- Have you other Mods installed?
- Have you tried the things i told Lumines to try out?
-
I greeted you because it's not common for other newbies to reply other people's welcomes (which I think is nice). I think I've only seen two or three newbies like that.
Welcome again !
Ah i see, well its my practice when i get talked to that i respond, at least i try to, when i am not answering then i might have overlooked the post or i am really busy with other stuff =)
I guess many "Newbies" may be not only new to this forum but to forums in general, so they need time to get used to it, responding and all that,
thats not the case for me i use forums since many jears (even administered some) and so its not as hard for me as it is for one that is totally new to forums too.
Thank you for explaining yourself, it made me think about if my posting in the Newbie thread is justified at all, but i guess it is becouse i just started to use this forums regulary since some days =)
:thanks:

Ah thank you :thanks: :biggrin:

Check the Section "Deactivation and Uninstallation of .dazip-files" in my Guide, maybe it can help you if you have trouble.

(...)
It's Dutch: says DAContentUpdater not working
There's a problem bla bla

You are welcome to ask your questions, but there is a thread with pepole that have the seemingly same problem in the Technical help forum.
I copied your post over there, please have a look: http://thenexusforums.com/index.php?showto...p;#entry1424714
I searched allready for solutions but havent found jet anything, sorry, you could try the things i suggested there also.
please report back if you find a solution, or if anyone knows what could help post in the topic i linked.
-
Here is another Report with seemingly the same problem, i couldnt find a solution for you guys, please check the technical help of the official forums and the EA Support.
If anyone has a clue or a solution please post it here !
Oh and maybe a moderator could edit the thread title to something like: daupdater crashes when installing a .dazip-file (probably steam related)

I'm sorry if i sound like a noob, but i need help figuring out how to download and make work, a mod on oblivion from your site. I would really like if an experienced admin or leader could help me out.
I am not a admin, mod or leader but it isnt hard to answer your question, so let me try =)
You allready got an answer in the other topic you started that should help you getting the file you downloaded to work with your game.
If you still need to know how to download a mod from this site:
- go to the Mod you want to download on the main site
- there are several tabs there
- click on the one that says "Files"
- download your modfile by clicking on the name of the file you see
- reffer to the readme, the description and the comments of the mod if you need help with it
Hope that clears any problem you had, if you have further questions just ask :thumbsup:

Two topics would be less confusing.....As for the length I am unsure, but it will go so far, then you can continue it in an additional post in the forum thread.
Title length, again I am unsure, but I will check on that.
I think the issue was ownership or being invisible. Which is the most important changes that I made.
Buddah
Thank you for the answers :thanks:
I will then stay with 2 Articles as you preffered.
Let me know if you find out about the Article & Title length, i try to keep it short.

It seems to be a Bug, maybe related to using the consloe or the toolset.
Ive found a solution with using the console: "you'll need to enable the console and enter in runscript zz_orz_debug"
I havent verified if that is working, but you could try it.
Here is a the thread where i found the solution: http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/58/index/330371
