Can't Download DLC
I purchased the DLC for ME3, but I can't install it. I click the orange download button, the message "Preparing download" pops up, and then the button changes back to "Download now" or whatever it i...
I bloody love you holger1405!!!
After reading your post I looked around the Final Hours of Mass Effect 3 folder. I found a huge DLC folder so I copied over that folder from C:\Program Files (x86)\The Final Hours Of Mass Effect 3\TheFinalHoursOfMassEffect3\BIOGame into C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Mass Effect 3\BIOGame, used repair install and it all works now.
Its been over a month since this started for me and even a specialist from EA Customer Experience couldn't help. I've been swapping e-mails with guys from EA for quite some time now to no avail. I've put in more time and effort than I thought I could over a videogame trying to get this to work.
I can't tell you how happy I am right now. THANK YOU!
You are welcome snorlacc.
I tried to recreate the problem by renaming my ME3 DLC folder which led origin to “think” that I have no DLC installed. Then I installed “The Final Hours of Mass Effect 3” and attempted to download one of my purchased DLC’s.
The DLC’s are indeed downloaded into the wrong folder!
Exactly as you said into “(disk):\Program Files (x86)\The Final Hours Of Mass Effect 3\TheFinalHoursOfMassEffect3\BIOGame\DLC” instead of “(disk)\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Mass Effect 3\BIOGame\DLC” where they belong.
It would be nice if a mod here would inform the EA guys of this problem. They are obviously not aware of this issue.
