Flamingjester Posted December 27, 2012 Posted December 27, 2012 I've just about had it with my computer, I'm straining myself to not bash my keyboard against the wall and throw it out the window. I need help trying to instal and open/unzip the damned mods and modder.
lera213 Posted December 27, 2012 Posted December 27, 2012 (edited) Exactly what mod are you trying to install would help. People need a little more information then what you have posted in order to try and help you. Edited December 27, 2012 by lera213
Flamingjester Posted December 27, 2012 Author Posted December 27, 2012 Exactly what mod are you trying to install would help. People need a little more information then what you have posted in order to try and help you. I'm not trying to install a mod yet, I'm just trying to get past the DAmodder and Mod manager. If it helps or makes it easier to understand, I'm a Mac user.
lera213 Posted December 27, 2012 Posted December 27, 2012 Not sure but maybe that mod isn't made for mac, did you try this one: http://dragonage.nexusmods.com/mods/2785
Flamingjester Posted December 27, 2012 Author Posted December 27, 2012 Not sure but maybe that mod isn't made for mac, did you try this one: http://dragonage.nexusmods.com/mods/2785 No. I just downloaded it, and i think this might actually work. Ummm, could you give me a quick walkthrough on how to download and apply a mod? Give me a simple example like a hair mod?

Give me a simple example like a hair mod?Hair mod is different you actually will need the mod called Chargencompiler http://dragonage.nexusmods.com/mods/971 If this mod doesn't work with MAC then you will have to edit your chargenxml file manually. Find the hair mod you want, place it in the My Documents/bioware/ dragonage/packeges/core/override (not sure what it is on Mac) folder, make sure the hair mods chargenmorphcfg.xmlis in the hair folder and not in the open override folder directory. Once in the folder run the chargen mod I posted, you should see two, if you do then click on the bottom button. To manually do it: In your override folder basically you have to open it with wordpad, notepad something equiv to that whatever you use for mac. You will see Female Hairs blah blah blah....If you open the mods chagen file, and yours you will pretty much figure out where it has to go. Copy what theirs is to yours. I'm not explaining very well. Sorry

I have no idea what a .dazip file even is, or how to open and apply it to the modwrangler.
lera213 Posted December 27, 2012 Posted December 27, 2012 Dazip is how some mods package their mods up. That is what the mod manager does, it will install DAZIPS...MODS...some mods have them and some not.
Flamingjester Posted December 27, 2012 Author Posted December 27, 2012 So would modwrangler work the same way as mod manager?
