I agree with Jasco. Keep the game disconnected from the internet and don't add anything until at least next year.

I installed the 1.01a patch though after I had installed the new runtimes and got it working, but that's it for me for awhile. I have registered my DLC's but I won't be downloading them until all these issues are fully fixed.

Anything about this patch appearing steam ? Because i have the copy on steam >.<

I just installed Patch 1.01b and the game crashes to the desktop when starting. I am running XP SP3.
Any ideas?

Edit: There appears to be a problem with the installer installing the Visual C runtime libraries. It is not capturing the completion of the installer correctly, it appears. The microsoft installer appears to be doing something in the background before it finishes completely.

Same problem.

It crashes to desktop about 2 seconds into loading a saved game both before the new patch and after. Prior to today I had not installed the new patch. I was playing just fine last night. I have done nothing to change my computer in anyway since last night.

I too noticed that there was a file in the patch file that did not want to install correctly.

Companions not following at all after installing patch 1.01b with a new game.

The folk at Bioware should take a look at the work of Projekt Red (The Witcher) for a lesson in great customer service and in supplying patch notes.



I very much regret having wasted my money on the Dragon Age so-called "Collector's Edition" - a collection of bugs and problems. Shan't even be installing the game again until EA and Bioware do their homework and release a patch that actually works. I buy games in order to relax and have fun, not to spend hours downloading this, that and the other and trying (I am 63 years old and don't know very much about computers) to tweak here, there and everywhere.



I'm a long-time fan of Bioware's RPGs and am very disappointed at what they are doing to their paying customers with Dragon Age. Well done to the members of the forum for helping to rescue what can be rescued but I'm done with Dragon Age until serious work is put into making it playable straight out of the box.

It's almost 20 days since the release of DAO......long enough to catch on that the patches available atm cause problems, it has been documented on here by many posters.



Why are people still installing it......you know it doesn't work, or fix anything at all.



Leave the game untill well after xmas go play something else......keep taking a look at the forums to see if they have fixed it.

[cjmojica]

What about in game lag. After the patch hit I all of a sudden have terrible lag. Is there a fix for this?

[Xarahaze]

I have installed the game on Vista SP2 with Direct X 11 platform update and all Visual C++ Runtime updates.Using Catalyst 9.8 for a HD 4870x2. I also installed patch 1.01a and the only 2 problems I have is the game minimizing intermittently, which I read is caused by AVG 9.0 so I will change it to MS security essentials as stated-seems like a decent AV,Aspy, A-Malware. Otherwise game runs fin until after about a couple hours its chugs and finally locks, may be same issue. I think it is a memory leak as the game won't wipe and re-load the memory once it fills.
It seems it plays fine until you run out of memory because it won't wipe it and reload more data from the hard disk. I was hoping patch1.01b would adress something as important as leaking memory. I set my core i7s 940 2.93 GHZ CPU affinity to use threads 4,5,6,7 as stated to fix leak and it helped but still dropped out later.

Frankly I am wary with so many complaining of a bad patch with 1.01b, should I install. Maybe not.

I have loaded 1.01b, have no problems, and play the game 5+ hours at a time with no difficulty.

There was one time when my character started using his bow like a sword (complete with lightning-effects from the sword's rune stone), but that was solved by the next screen change.  I understand that's an effect of the DLC.

[Xarahaze]

CptLin ,



Thank you for the reassurance. I may give it a try. I also my load the new ATI catalyst 9.11 drivers. I like to keep things updated as long as they don't break things. IF you don't mind what are your rigs specs?

[Xarahaze]

Jasco11 is right in theory if its not broke don't fix it, after all a patch is exactly that a fix to a problem. If you don't have it..... then,well you know. I know gamers (me too) like to have there games updated to the newest version by instinct though, so we trust our developers. But BIOWARE is a great one and DAO is a masterpiece I hope they work it out for everybody.



I have installed 1.01a and it didn't add any problems it seems if your install works with 1.01a it will with 1.01b



Keep in mid 1.01b has the very helpful (for many DAO players) MS Visual C++ Runtime Libraries update included, so if you haven't already had it updated manually or auto update it may be worth a shot. ( actually coincidentally Modern Warfare 2 updates your OS to the newest MS Visual C++ Runtime) It seemed to help fix my DAO after I installed COD MW2 and uninstalled AVG 9.0???



I never had very serious problems it just minimized after a while and had a lock ocassionally, but even that is annoying since no other game does so.

[Shaevar]

Hello everyone,



I downloaded the patch 1.01b and I could play the game. BUT, everything was slow. Didn't notive any lag, but the animation took forecer to complete a a single sword sweep tok an absurd amount of time to complete. I installed vcredlist_x86, but it didn't worked. I re-installed the game and I still have the same problem. Can someone tell me what is going on with my game??

[megapatato]

Darn! This game is buggier than vanilla Morrowind, and that's saying something:

Unpatched - frequent crashes

Patched - won't run

Repatched - unbearably slow & frequent crashes



Microsoft launched Vista before it was ready, and it turned out to be the worst OS in Redmond's history! Remember the compatibility issues? I would have gladly waited till next year if that meant EA/BW would release a finished product. As it stands, I'll wait until a REAL patch arrives that actually addresses game-killing errors (crash crash crash) instead of more trivial issues (difficulty & sliders?? C'mon!).

As much as I do realize the extraordinary promise the game holds (for the characters are very well done with great voice casting, the story is interesting, and the ConstructionSet-like utility gives me ideas), I can't recommend the game now; perhaps after the Holiday season when prices also go down

Another issue and solution that should be included on this page:



AWC.dll

"The game cannot launch because of a misconfiguration. Please reinstall your game and try again."



http://social.biowar.../58/index/90660



I had this issue with the downloaded deluxe version of the game from ea.com. Both solutions work for me (deleting everything from the .ini file is best...no need to start 2 apps manually each time).

[Mithardin]

Thanks

Just chiming in.



Hey BW, one more person who's game is now unplayable.



Thanks for taking my money.

For those who try to download vcredist_x86 and you cant install and get an error like "Extraction failed. Corrupted Cabinet file or not enough disk space" something along those lines. Get JDownloader( Its an Internet Download Manager -IDM-) then copy the link at the top post that brings you to the download page, and put it in JDownloader. It may take some time, or you might have to find another way to get it in there, once you get the link in there for the vcredist_x86.exe and download it, it should install without errors! Then your DA:O will work!!! Yay! This is what worked for me!:innocent::innocent::innocent::innocent::innocent::innocent::innocent::innocent:

this is for the play button not working ?

[ANIME AKBAR]

so I just installed 1.02a and now I'm getting the problem where pressing play in the launcher window does nothing. is there a separate patch for the launcher that needs to be applied?
