Which program should i download in order for me to extract w/e files? i know their are a lot like .rar.... and .zip or w/e... is there just 1 program i can download in order to extract all of the files?

 

Downloading one of the mod helpers = auto install all mods i download? or do i have to extract them into their own files then place them into the program?

 

(also a link to a step by step noob guide would be awesome.. thandel helped me acouple of days ago but the guide was not very super duper noob friendly).

 

Thanks =)

is this what you are looking for??

 

Ya i actually just found that like 10 mins after i posted haha..

 

It gave me a lot of good info =)

 

Im still confused on some aspects tho..

 

For example the DAupdater auto installs some type of mods like i downloaded the Dog Slot mod and it was an easy click and install...

 

But what about other mods where i cant directly into it into the Updater? (only .dazip?)

 

-------

 

also im tyring to download More Hair Styles, (link) - http://www.dragonagenexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=392

 

For some reason its not installing.. im getting the loading icon but nothings happening been about 10min.

 

So any help with that would be epic!

have you followed the installing instructions in the mod page??

 

also, i am not so sure what your question means

i haven't played DA in a very long time, so i can't really remember it all......

still, if you can explain your question, i will try to answer

 

If a mod isnt a .dazip file (and cant be directly installed into the DAupdater in the program file folder) how can i get it in there / what program would i have to use? (like WinRar or 7zip)

 

And about the HairStyles - i clicked on download - US DC area - and opened it up, nothing happened though (need help on getting it to download)

 

And thank you for ur responses! <3

well, i can try to help

 

about the first question, i think i know an answer, but use at your own risk

i think that if the file is a rar or zip file, then you can just change the extension to dazip, and it should be fine (i know that it works for Fallout 3 and New Vegas, and i think it works for DA, but as i've said, haven't played the game in a long while)

 

and about the second question, try using a different server

it happens sometime

today i was trying to download a mod, and two servers told me that i couldn't download it, but when i tried the british server, it worked like a charm

it is probably due to many people downloading from the servers at the same time

so try a different server, one that has less users, and it should work

"dont mean to double post or w/e and i can create a new post if need be"

 

Im having difficulties downloading the mods.. ive tried all the servers and opened them and then nothing happens... is there a way to save the file and then like copy it into the DAupdater or something? =(

 

I downloaded the Extra Dog Slot mod just fine..

 

The Mods im having trouble downloading include - More Hair Styles and Morrigan Lose Robe Mod.
