Prawncess Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Hi there ! I was wondering if it was possible to access Awakening's dialogues and areas files in order to modify them. Or if it's not, how can I bypass that ? I know some people did it in their mods so I think it's possible but I really don't know how to find these files. If someone could help me, he would make me the happiest person in the world. :happy: [i hope my words are understandable. My apologies if it's not, English is'nt my native langage but I'll try to be more understandable.] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sapphim Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 Bioware never released Awakening's source files so they can't be edited in the toolset the same way as Origin's base game files. However, Awakening's files aren't encrypted, so they can be extracted with the toolset or PyGff and edited with other programs. These files are in Dragon Age\addins\dao_prc_ep_1. Your game's install directory, not My Documents. So you can't use the toolset area editor to modify Awakening's areas (you could use TlkEdit for that), but you can follow the toolset wiki's instructions to use DLC layouts in the toolset and make your own custom areas. Some mods use PRCSCR scripts to modify things after the area loads without modding the area itself. This good to use if possible because it's compatible with other mods in the same area. As for modding dialogue without the toolset dialogue editor, it's complex but possible. Hopefully this helps! If you're still interested in modding Awakening and need more help, it would be best to be as specific as you can about what you're trying to do.

Maybe, it's useful for you? s. https://www.nexusmods.com/dragonage/mods/4427?tab=files (Second file from the top) Edited July 6, 2018 by rosvitacousland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
