Re: Frosty Mods not loading

update: found my issue.

Seems like when dai was launching from frosty, it'd launch using the normal files rather than the modded files in the moddata folder.

Is it possible for me to get it to use the modded files rather than the normal ones at launch?

I've had success just replacing the normal files with the modded ones but that's gonna be a hassle each time i want to download a new mod so having it launch using the moddata folder would be preferable

many thanks for any help

EA app is not processing command line arguments in the same way Origin did, that is why you need FrostyFix or DatapathFix in the first place.

So you will not get the mods to load without using one of the above.

FrostyFix is a separate application wile DatapathFix is a Frosty plug in.

I would recomand to use DatapathFix, follow the guide on this page to install DatapathFix. (And only DatapathFix, don't use FrostyFix)

Hiya,
Yeah datapathfix alone doesn't seem to work unfortunately
Before I saw your message I was messing around with both datapathfix and frostyfix together and somehow two out of six of my mods are working (Map Loading Screen and Neutral Expression (No frown while idle))
weird part is that these two mods which are working both have a warning stating that they're designed for different game versions so no clue what's going on there
Also think it might be worth stating that I have the game from steam which might be a factor in my mods not loading as that was the cause for my issues with getting frosty to even open the game (had to replace frostymodsupport.dll for it to work)

nevermind another seems to be working too with just frostyfix
I think my issue for mods not loading might've been because i had daimods and ig that clashed
I followed a guide (Dragon Age Inquisition mods not working? - Dragon Age: Inquisition Mod Troubleshooting - The Nexus Forums (nexusmods.com)) which said to delete my dai patch_modmanagermerge folder
then i launched through frosty fix and it seems to be working or atleast the ones i want are working so yay
