dragon age inquisition mods are not working

Product: The EA app
Platform:PC
Error Report ID (learn how to create an Error Report ID in the sticky post)
Which client functionality are you experiencing this bug with? Other (Please Describe)
Please describe The error is in the game, once I launch it
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) 27.01.2023
Summarize your bug Since my origin was uninstalled and the EA application replaced it, none of my mods are working in dragon age inquisition. I use a Frosty mod manager. I don't know what seems to be the problem, but it's bothering me quite a lot.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Just download any mod with Frosty and start Dragon Age Inquisition. It just won't work.
What happens when the bug occurs? For example, I have 'always night in Thedas' mod and it's day on every map and I don't want the daylight.
What do you expect to see? I want my mods to work. ‌

    This is false.

    EA app indeed is the problem, it is not handling command line arguments in the same way Origin does. But there is already a solution, to use Frosty with EA app you need Frosty Fix. (FAQ)

    Edit: In general.
    Mods and their working in game are the responsibility of the mod and tool creator, never of the developer.

    So a Mod not working can never be a bug nor does it require a bug report.

    @holger1405 

    Thank you for the navigation to the FrostyFix site. 

    I launched the game through the standard Frosty Mod Manager, closed it out, then launched FrostyFix per the instructions but it isn't showing Dragon Age Inquisition in its "Games" dropdown. Is there a way to force the app to identify that game?

    In Frosty Fix click on the cogwheel (top right) > "Settings" Tab > Check "Launch game with Frosty" > Determine the path to your Frosty Mod Manager" installation. > Under "Custom Game" determine the path to your DAi Installation > close the window.
    Check "EA Desktop" at the Frosty Fix main window.

    Now when you click "Launch game with Mods enabled" at the Frosty Fix main window Frosty Mod manager should start automatically.

    I use DAI Mod Manager, any ideas on how to get them to work again?

    The DAI Mod Manager works differently to Frosy, it still works fine with the EA app.

    If it does not work for you, the problem is in the DAI Mod Manager setup.

    Thank you so so so so so much. the two pieces of advice finally fixed this. I didn’t have any luck in the forums when it happened months ago because it was such a new problem. I’m so glad this is working again.
