[Guide] for installing/uninstalling Mods

[Alexspeed]

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 =)

all thanks to Gaias who provided the information!

 

I would be very happy if someone experienced with the Toolset could take a look and confirm that this way is working,

also i am not sure if you still have to manually delete files when you use this method.

 

Thanks for reading, hope it helps someone =)

Hey!

 

Since this is the guide for installing mods I figured I'd ask my question here:

 

See, I've got a bit of a problem with uploading files trought the Dragon Age Content Updater. Every time I try to the Updater crashes (see screen). Anyone knows why that's happening, of what the solution is?
