How do I install mods?
Alexspeed replied to redhorizon09's topic in Dragon Age: Origins's Mod Troubleshooting
Every mod should have a readme or something that includes installation directions. As noted it really depends on if the mod is a basic add-in, or if it needs to do any overrides. Thank you for the responds and help. Yea every mod should have a readme, but the problem is: some don't... or some of the readmes have file paths that I don't recognize such as these for example, which both are for the same mod: -directory at C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\My Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age\packages\core\override and/or -directory at C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\My Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age\modules\Single Player\override I have Dragon Age installed on my C drive in the program folder. The first path that leads to \packages\core\override I can find no problem, but the 2nd path, I saw no folder named \modules in my dragon age folder. In such a case, what would you do? Create the folder? You would need to create, though i'd be very careful with a mod that is overriding single player directly. That dangerous ground. What mod is it? I dont know which mod redhorizon09 meant, but i second what jwvanderbeck said. Normally those "\modules\Single Player\override" paths have something to do with the way a mod is extracted from the toolset (if i am not mistaken) and i readed several postings that had problems with this single player installation paths. I am no modder myself (jet), but i would be very carefull with such a mod and possibly dont use it unless i have exact directions from the maker of said mod. C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\My Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age\packages\core\override is normally the place to put mods unless they work with a .dazip file. Also i have written a small guide for installing/uninstalling mods: http://www.dragonagenexus.com/articles/article.php?id=19 hopefully it clears any trouble that may still be there, in case you have more qustions just ask =) -

i got all the DLC till now, but i am really not sure if i will buy the "return to ostagar" DLC seems just too little, i wait till it comes out and then see what the pepole will say about it before i spend money on it.

Basic Question on installing mods
Alexspeed replied to Talon111's topic in Dragon Age: Origins's Discussion
I just wrote a Guide that should help you: http://www.dragonagenexus.com/articles/article.php?id=19 Quick answer, its best you make for every individual mod a subfolder in your override folder, but you dont have to. -
I wrote a guide that should cover almost all of the simpler aspects of installing and uninstalling mods with Dragon Age. you can find it here: http://www.dragonagenexus.com/articles/article.php?id=19 Its written so any beginner should be able to use a mod propperly, and maybe also experienced users can get something out of it too. Mod Authors are very welcome to link to the Article if asked how to install a mod (unless its something more complex of course). If you find an error or want to add anything, please leave a comment at the article, i will edit it if necessary =) Hope it helps someone =)
