Indigobug1987 Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 I don't remember how to manually install. I have daomodmanager but i can't click and drag to the manager. I put the files in the Data folder but when i start a new character the hair isn't there. Is there something more specific im supposed to be doing? There isn't a readme file or anything with it. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkeWolf Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 have you extracted them from the .7zip folder before trying to install? If not thats why it's not working. http://thenexusforums.com/index.php?showtopic=180608 read through that, and if you still have problems, post back and I'll try to help you out some more :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indigobug1987 Posted February 15, 2010 Author Share Posted February 15, 2010 yeah i read that and it doesn't help me. I have better bodies running via the DAO manager but the hair mod is manual only. I put the files (dragged) them into the data files and they are in there only they arn't showing up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indigobug1987 Posted February 15, 2010 Author Share Posted February 15, 2010 oh i read the instal instructions on the page for this download and it says you can either drag and drop it into the manager (which i don't know how because everything i try it says such n such is not an override/dazip) or extract it to My Documents\Bioware\Dragon Age\Packages\Core\Override which still does not work when i go to the creation screen. I don't know what i'm doing wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkeWolf Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Ok, I'm afraid that I dont have that file, so you're going to have to tell me what the exact filename is.does it end in .dazip, .zip .rar .7z? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indigobug1987 Posted February 17, 2010 Author Share Posted February 17, 2010 its a .zip file. do you know which particular mod i'm trying to dl? its http://www.dragonagenexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=392 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkeWolf Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 ahhhhhhh dangit, I owe you a massive apology! I misunderstood the nature of the problem that you are having! I am SOOOO sorry! I thought that you were having issues with it actually installing. The problem you're having is getting them to show up. Ok, what the problem most likely is, is that you're using another mod, which is incompatible, such as PT's vibrant colors, BD hairs, glowing warden eyes, any mod which can add things to the player creation screen. all of these types of mods use a file called Chargen (character generation). when you install multiples of these types of files, the game only reads ONE of the chargen files, not ALL of them. So what you need to do, is download a compatibility file, which lists ALL the mods that you're using that use this file. basically it wraps them all up into one chargen file.then, after getting the compatibility file, you have have windows search your override folder, and DELETE every instance of chargen that is in there, that you find. After doing that, you drop the new compatibility file into your override folder, and all of them should show up after that. I did a search, and will post it for you, but didnt know which conflicting mods you are using, so I cant tell you exactly which one you will need. Check the version numbers of your mods, and look for those numbers in the descriptions of the compatibility files.http://www.dragonagenexus.com/downloads/search.php Again, I am REALLY sorry, I misunderstood your problem!

Indigobug1987 Posted February 19, 2010 Author Share Posted February 19, 2010 well right now the only mod i am using is better bodies(sp) and trying to use the hair mod. I've gotten it so mixed around trying to fix it i think i should reinstall :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkeWolf Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 hmmmm. better bodies shouldnt cause a conflict with the hair mod.i'd recommend doing a search thru your override folder to see if the chargen file is there, and replace it. if its not there, then you would need to extract it from the zip file into your override folder. Oh, and if thats the only mod you're using, I might recommend this one- http://www.dragonagenexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=44gets rid of the nasty yellow teeth. Greatly improves those scenes where you are talking to other people ;)doesnt require any work, just drag and drop ;) good luck :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indigobug1987 Posted February 20, 2010 Author Share Posted February 20, 2010 Ok I did uninstall. Which mod should i download first to get these to work? THEN how do i install these mods since its not as simple as what im used to. I have like 15-20 mods running on oblivion and i know how to turn them on and off however I please. I thought I knew what i was doing when I downloaded these mods but its not that simple i guess. Y_Y Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
