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...
OKAY SOMETHING FINALLY GOOD HAPPENED.
I deleted my add on "The Final Hours Of Mass Effect 3", and suddenly I was allowed to download and install everything again fine! However, I'm not sure whether this thread should be completely resolved, because it highlights an problematic conflict between the DLC available, and The Final Hours. So perhaps this should be recognised by someone up at EA before we solve the thread, just to notify them of this?
this also worked for me! i believe anyone having this issue should know that this is the solution. THANK YOU!
For anyone who find this Thread in search for a solution, you don’t need to uninstall “The Final Hours Of Mass Effect 3” at all if you don’t want to.
Close Origin then go to your: (Disk):\Program Files [(x86)]\The Final Hours Of Mass Effect 3\TheFinalHoursOfMassEffect3\BIOGame” folder.
If you already downloaded the DLC’s there should be a “DLC” folder, relocate this folder (integrate if you have other DLC’s already installed) into the: (Disk):\Program Files [(x86)]\Origin Games\Mass Effect 3\BIOGame” folder.
Start Origin and try the installation of the DLC’s in Origin again.
Should this not work, rename the “The Final Hours Of Mass Effect 3” folder in "_The Final Hours Of Mass Effect 3” then restart Origin and download the DLC’s again.
Don’t forget to rename the “_The Final Hours Of Mass Effect 3” in “The Final Hours Of Mass Effect 3” after the DLC installation.
