How to use frosty and daitools together
This mod changes aesthetics only. No voices or character stories are changed.
03/06/2020 - Due to having worked out an alternative method for this mod, new versions will be Full Swap Only
Race Swaps I haven't figured out if they work this way so until then they remain under miscellaneous.
Anything labeled Chargen Swap works in all areas not just Haven and Skyhold
Compatibility
Compatible with other Character Swaps that use Chargen Bundle only
As long as it isn't the same character being swapped to. My mods will say which are Chargen Bundle Based
It will say conflict but due to the bundles being the same it can be used in game.
Due to this working a little differently they are only head swaps, once outfits can be swapped
to Companions without issues I will be making a mod for Blackwall Outfit Swaps that will work with this mod
Due to this old swaps are still at bottom of File Downloads
Where it won't work
Pre-recorded scenes.
Which Characters Have Been Done
Chargen Swaps (these are only head swaps but work in all areas)
Garrett Hawke
Gereon Alexius
Michel De Chevin
Bram Kenric
Crassius Servis
Felix Alexius
Alistair (he has dark hair not blonde, also two options for Skin Tint both darker than vanilla)
Knight Captain Rylen (with choice of hairs. due to him only having a Helm Version of his head in the game files, his ears are flat to his head. If I can ever figure out a fix I will post it.)
Non Compatible Swaps (listed under Old Mods/Miscellaneous)
Raleigh Samson
Varric Tethras - Uses Varric's unequipped outfit in Wicked Eyes and Wicked Hearts.
Does not work for the Blackwall Plot Quest inside the Prison in Val Royeaux.
Please do not run the mod for that scene, once out of the prison you can load it again.
Due to the mod being made for a HM character that romances all the races the animations don't line
A cosmetic mod for Dragon Age: Inquisition that swaps Blackwall's appearance for other characters, leaving voices and stories untouched. With 240 endorsements and 5,085 downloads, it's a niche choice for players wanting visual variety without altering gameplay.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-tested with 240 endorsements and over 5,000 downloads
- Pure cosmetic swap—no risk of breaking quests or dialogue
- Simple concept, easy to understand for modding newcomers
⚠️ Cons
- No screenshots or detailed previews in the description—you're flying blind on what the swaps look like
- Only swaps Blackwall, so if you wanted other companions changed, this won't help
- Requires Frosty Mod Manager, which adds an extra step for manual installers
For Dragon Age: Inquisition players who want to freshen up Blackwall's look without changing his personality or story. Skip if you're after gameplay overhauls or if you're not comfortable with Frosty Mod Manager.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to launch the game through Frosty Mod Manager after applying the mod, or it won't load.
- Check the mod's file structure in Frosty to see which characters are included—there's no preview, so you might need to test in-game.
- If you're new to Frosty, watch a quick tutorial on importing mods—it's straightforward but has a learning curve.
