Dragon Age: Origins | Mod List Revised
Updated: Feb 29
I want to post a revised mod list for this awesome game because next month I will be starting my second ever, NIGHTMARE Playthrough! So in preparation for this I want to share my mod list for one of the best games I've ever played.
Modding Dragon Age: Origins can be intimidating, but it can be pretty easy once you figure it out. One of the easiest. This is still a work in progress but this is what I have so far.
While most mods can be installed simply by dropping the unzipped folder/file into the override folder - usually under PC/Documents/Bioware/Dragon Age/packages/core/override - You will need at least two others. The two I use are DAUdater - (whatever game drive your game is in) ex, C: Drive/Program Files x86/Steam/Steamapps/Common/Dragon Age Ultimate Edition/bin_ship - and
DAO - Mod Manager
For hair mods (and a few others), you will need a chargen morph compiler
CharGenMorph Compiler
You will also need the 4Gb patch. I use Steam so the link for how to install that is here:
And for the Large Address Aware (the same thing but for non-steam users), the instructions here:
Always remember to read all of the Mod author’s page for installation instructions.
Now onto the Mods!
