Re: Dragon Age: Origins original launcher while using EA Origin?

Two points:

1)  Yes, using the copy of the Launcher (plus the supporting files) from your retail disc will work fine, but;

2)  You can just make a desktop shorcut to the configuration utility.  It's in your DAO "\bin_ship" folder under "\Program Files", (the same folder where the main game executable "daorigins.exe" is.)  It's called: "DAOriginsConfig.exe".

The Launcher simply gave a way to choose the game program, the config program, or the other support programs that no longer work (since they were on-line, and EA dropped/moved things.)
