Re: Game won't launch after using frosty mod manager

@txqueenbee75So assuming you have installed FMM, go to that file folder. If you dont know how, simply right click on the desktop icon and select Open File Location. From there, find the CryptBase.dll file and copy it. From there, just paste it into your Game File location using same method.

Hopefully this helps.

    Issue is, I cannot find the CryptBase.DLL File. As you can see in this file/png below

  • I would try to re-download it. Not sure how you unpacked yours, but I did mine through the Nexus tool, Vortex. I doubt that would make a difference though. So yea, just go to Frostys website and re-download the file.

    I believe I've found a fix to the problem. While troubleshooting launching the game without any mods, I found out that FMM 1.0.5.7 can perfectly launch the game, but cannot load mods. From this, I downloaded both FMM 1.0.5.9 and 1.0.5.7 and ran them both at the same time. Since the mods I'm using work with 1.0.5.9,  I was able to successfully load them there and launch the game.

    In shorter words, run both FMM 1.0.5.9 and 1.0.5.7 at the same time, load mods to 1.0.5.9, launch game from 1.0.5.9.

    In this instance, I am running FIFA 20 with mods, but I am guessing the fix also works for Mass Effect Andromeda.

    @Jakeymomo107 I had to log in to say thank you!! Thank you for taking the time to share a solution. I've been trying to play Andromeda for the last 4 days and nothing else was working. I was just about to give up on ever playing the game when I found this thread.
