📋 About This Mod
This mod lets you play any origin with any race/class combination. Likely to cause occasional odd reactions from NPCs. -- Install --- Install .dazip with daupdater.exe. -- Configuration --- Add the following lines to your DragonAge.ini found in Documents\\BioWare\\Dragon Age\\Settings: =ForceOrigin=DalishElf =ForceOrigin=CityElf =ForceOrigin=ElfMage =ForceOrigin=HumanNoble =ForceOrigin=HumanMage =ForceOrigin=DwarfNoble =ForceOrigin=DwarfCommoner =ForceClass=Rogue =ForceClass=Warrior =ForceClass=Wizard Then \"uncomment\" the lines for your desired origin and class (remove the equal sign at the start). i.e. To play a Dwarf Mage and start in the Circle: =ForceOrigin=DalishElf =ForceOrigin=CityElf =ForceOrigin=ElfMage =ForceOrigin=HumanNoble ForceOrigin=HumanMage =ForceOrigin=DwarfNoble =ForceOrigin=DwarfCommoner =ForceClass=Rogue =ForceClass=Warrior ForceClass=Wizard Then create (or import) your character (a dwarf for this example) as you normally would, choose any class, background, skills, etc. You will be respecced automatically once you get in the game if you force a class other than the one you choose during chargen (as long as you don\'t click Quickstart). Optionally, you can uninstall the mod at this point. -- Uninstall --- Uncheck the mod under Downloaded Content. -- Compatibility --- All of my mods are 100% standalone scripts. No vanilla data is modified in any way. -- Known Issues --- After editing the .ini, the buttons in daupdater.exe will be blank but still work, very weird. I\'m going to leave this to BioWare to fix. - David Arneson (xatmos)
