Installation with RtF Module:
This is so if you disable the module you also disable all of the other parts as well. Keeping these components all under one roof. All (besides the module) and RfCIP for RtF can go into packages override but then you wouldn't be able to disable the module easily and manually have to sort out duplicate/optional files.
Requires: A RAR file extractor.
Extract the RtF DAZip file (via Areas and Atmosphere) and install with DAUpdater, DAModder or DAO-Modmanager.

Description
*********
This is a revision of Ferelden project, including a collection of retired mods A Paragon of Dwarvenkind, Dark Circle, Gnawed Nobles and Nature of the Dalish mod, but also includes revisions for random encounters, lite content, locations and more. This is considered an on going project planned to evolve and expand further.
I tried to index and detail as much as I could in case people want to 'cherry pic

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community traction with 149 endorsements and nearly 12k downloads
- Bundles multiple content types—campaign expansion, visual overhauls, and world additions—into one package
- Regularly updated as of March 2024, so it's actively maintained
⚠️ Cons
- Moderate endorsement-to-download ratio suggests it may not be universally loved
- Potential compatibility issues with other overhaul mods that touch the same areas or NPCs
- No explicit version compatibility listed, so it might not work with all Dragon Age: Origins patches
For Dragon Age: Origins players who want a fresh take on Ferelden with expanded content and visual updates. If you're a completionist looking for new ambient details and equipment, this is worth a shot. Skip if you prefer vanilla aesthetics or are running a heavily modded setup that could conflict.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or DAO ModManager to avoid overwriting conflicts
- Check the mod's load order relative to other overhauls to prevent texture or mesh clashes
- Back up your save files before installing, as campaign expansions can alter quest triggers
