Your bigger problem will be that iirc DAA files are encrypted, much like the other DLC files and to use them you will first have to decrypt them or obtain an already decrypted copy. Hi, I do not currently have DAO installed to point you in the right direction but they tend to be in more or less the same places across both game and DLCs.
I will mostly use the manager method, but I will discuss the copy and paste method just in case you wish to see where the files are stored and how to manually add and delete them with relative ease.Still no luck with the job, had half dozen interviews but none have gone any further.
There are a few ways to go about modding Dragon Age: through copy and pasting the files after downloading and extracting, extracting straight to the folder, or using the mod manager. However, this article will only use links from the Nexus.
There are also two places I use the most for mods – Dragon Age Nexus (part of a mod nexus for many games) and the project function offered within the Bioware Social Network. I have chosen these due to several compatibility issues that other similar mods such as many Zevran fixes that do not work with Equal Love or Dialogue Tweaks since they touch the same files. However, this doesn’t mean there aren’t better mods out there I am unaware of or that choosing another mod is necessarily wrong. I will be using the list of mods I personally use and the mods I am using have shown no compatibility issues with each other. Some might be compatible, but many are not.
Hopefully this article helps some you newer or prospective PC players wishing to experience Dragon Age in ways that the vanilla game didn’t offer First, some basic notes: There are several different mods that can cover the same aspect of a game. It isn’t that it is extremely difficult, just something that isn’t as intuitive as some games mods have become. I eventually got it done, but it wasn’t easy. I trudged through so many mods and hours, tinkering to get them to work without really knowing what I was doing. There was no easy how to guide on where to start. After a few months I started researching various things about the game, mainly because of some bugs and issues I had with some aspects of it, and I discovered the already rich modding world that existed.
The varied and wonderfully vibrant characters mixed with the amount of choices that create a rich emotional world draws me in, and I first bought it on the Xbox 360. Now that I have your attention As many know, Dragon Age: Origins is my favourite game.

Modding Dragon Age: Origins – The Essentials. Haven't had a problem with that not-working thing, try running as admin, or some compatibility mode maybe. I think I have the DAMM too, if that's where natural bodies mod needed to be added. I still have some mods on NMM, some merged with the updater, and some just directly dropped into the override directory, and things work fine together. I started with NMM, until I stumbled upon things that didn't work, or that required the updater.exe (I think that's what it was called) included with the game. Would I also need to uninstall NMM I use it for other games so that wouldn't be great. How would I go about transferring my mods and would it effect my save. I want to know how to actually get DAMM working and if possible use the one mod on DAMM and the rest on NMM. It basically instantly enters into stopped working mode. Now I've attempted to use DAMM but when I open it.
I use NMM for all my mods but I found this really cool mod that requires you to use DAMM. This subreddit and its mods are in no way associated with BioWare or EA.
