[EA app] DA:O Ultimate Edition DLC Not Showing in game
DLC / add-ons not showing up ingame in Dragon Age Origins: Ultimate Edition
I'm posting this so anyone facing similar problems might have use of the info.
So in preparation for Veilguard I wanted to replay all the other games, starting with Origins Ultimate Edition.
I downloaded it through the EA app, which said everything was downloaded and ready to go.
I booted up the game, however none of the DLC showed in the Downloadable Content menu, neither as available nor ready.
I thought it to be a visual bug, but pressing new game did not allow me to choose between Origins and Awakening.
Thus began my search for a solution.
I tried all the stuff with repairing the game, uninstalling and reinstalling, going through and copying addins.xml and offers.xml. None of it worked, though the EA app clearly showed that all add-ons were installed, even though it was not present in the install folder.
This lead me to think that the problem was not with the game but with the app installing it.
Luckily the first thing I tried with the app worked.
I went to the hamburger menu in the top left corner and then Help and App Recovery.
Then after restarting the app it clearly showed DA:O UE being intsalled, and by managing add-ons it showed that none were installed, and I was now able to install them all one by one.
