Installing mods

[zzjay]

I'm trying to install mods for DAO...and i installed a couple of hairs and textures manually...

 

i was wondering if i could use NMM to install other hairmods\armors,without loosing mine

 

for example i find it hard to understand what these mods do and how to instal them...

I think NMM can't install all different kind of DA:O mods but I'm not 100% sure . I don't use NMM. I always install my mods manually it's imo easier to understand how mods are working for DA:O

Some of the files are for the use with the Toolset but you can also use them in the Character Creater after you have edited your chargenmorphfile..e.g. Geralts face texture.

The hairstyles have a chargenmorph included, so you have to merge that one with your already existing one.

The preset should also show up after you have edited you chargenfile..and of course the necessary files should be in your override folder ( textures etc.)

Use the DAO Modmanager.. link is in the mod description for installing the dazip and the robes etc.. should be spawned in your inventory.

The optional files should be put in the override folder.

That's all.

 

RL Witcher Emporium:

Also dazip which can be installed with the DAO Modmanager.

 

Edit:

You can have so many cosmetic mods like hairstyles, face textures as you like as long you are only have one chargenmorph file in your override folder.

The same with armours you can use a lot of but it's possible that some are sharing the same item id and then the armour will not show up or a wrong armour will be shown.

Risibisi is correct that neither NMM, nor any other "manager", can handle all the kinds of mods there are for Dragon Age.

See this article: Using Dragon Age Mods for Dummies.

 

And the short answer to your question is that you can use any or all of the mod managers (and manual installs) together. But each will only "know" about the mods it installed.
