ausher Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 My wife has An alienware alpha and wants mods for dragon age origins. I cannot figure out how to download them onto the alienware alpha and install them. Anyone know what to do. Help is greatly appreciated.

Thandal Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Not many user's of that platform around (yet). What's the folder structure for the installed game and the player's saved games on the Alienware Alpha? That'll tell us a lot about how closely it matches the usual PC/Steam config.

ausher Posted March 9, 2015 Author Share Posted March 9, 2015 Think i got it figured out. Gotta go to desktop side of the platform. Then it's just like win 8 on pc. Not sure on what folder to save the mods in tho. Some mods don't work like changing eye color. Now trying to figure out the controls. Cannot open doors and keyboard functions aren't doing anything...

Thandal Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 For the most part, mods go where they go on a PC: The "\override" folder located under the same user profile folder as "saves". On my PC the saves are under: "C:\Users\<username>\Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age\Characters\<charactername>\Saves"And mods are under: "C:\Users\<username>\Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age\packages\core\override". The exception, of course, is a ".dazip" mod, which has multiple components that need to be placed (or applied) in different locations. Making things even more complicated is the fact that with the Ultimate Edition BioWare changed where the "\addins" folder was located. When you say, "Some mods don't work like changing eye color." do you mean they don't work with your current characters? Because that would be correct. Those sorts of mods only work with the Character Creator. And for CC mods to work, you have to understand the "CharGenMorphConfig.xml" file and where it's located.

ausher Posted March 10, 2015 Author Share Posted March 10, 2015 Yea apparently i had to turn up the graphics quality to get eye colors to change. On lowest setting the eye color stayed black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thandal Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Ohhh... the "All black eyes" problem. That's been the way it works for everyone since release. I thought you meant "change eye color mods" weren't working. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
