Re: Possible solution for Dragon Age Origins: Ultimate Edition DLC not appearing

Thank you for posting about your fix, hopefully it's helpful for others. Can I check if you've ever had a different DAO install on this system, either the Steam version or the old pre-Origin standalone edition?

Thanks again, great post.

  • The difference in the "correct" destination folder is due to a change from the way things were done for the original "game+DLC as separate installs", to the way they're done with the Ultimate Edition "all-in-one". 

    The latter moved the expected location of the DLC from under the player's profile folder to under the game's.  If a player is attempting to "do things by-hand", which is a really, really bad idea when it comes to the DLC, (and is usually, but not always, associated with pirated copies) then it's incumbent upon the player to know what they're doing.

  • I have not owned a previous version of the game. The only version I own is the one supplied by Origin. Hopefully no one else has to struggle with this problem, but I figured I should at least document the solution that was working for me.
