dmush Posted June 4, 2017 Posted June 4, 2017 I looked at all the other threads, and nobody seems to have this exact problem. When I put override based mods into DAMM's override folder, then run it, they don't appear in DAMM whatsoever. I'm pretty sure i Set up DAMM correctly. Edit: dragging and dropping the files into DAMM results in "*filename* is not a dazip or override"
theskymoves Posted June 4, 2017 Posted June 4, 2017 First question: by DAMM, do you mean DAO-Modmanager or... something else? Second question: Are the mods override archives (i.e., a contained package of files formated to be installed with DAO-Modmanager, with an '.override' extension), or regular ol' overrides, as in 'a bunch of files in a folder that can be manually installed to the MyDocuments override folder'?

I'm honestly not sure which, I extracted them (their extension for me is 7zip) to the modmanager override folder, though they seem to turn into folders afterwards. Edited June 5, 2017 by dmush
theskymoves Posted June 5, 2017 Posted June 5, 2017 As far as I can recall, DAO-Modmanager doesn't handle 'regular' override mods (the kind that are just folders); it only installs the proprietary .override packages and DAzips. Just add the manual override to the correct folder (usually something like Documents/Bioware/Dragon Age/packages/core/override, though that path may be slightly off). If you keep the files in a folder within the override folder, it's easy to 'manage' uninstalling and such. Or, if you really really want to use the DAO-ModManager to install everything, you can create .override archive, with the 'Override creator' function of that utility. (My tutorial-of-sorts on that.)
Thandal Posted June 5, 2017 Posted June 5, 2017 Yeah, what tsm said. DAMM handles .dazip and .override mods, but nothing else.
