Continued from this thread, so I don't hijack the addon's discussion. The context is you can't double-click to install a DAZIP file, but have to run DAUpdater from the bin_ship directory, which is less than ideal for multiple reasons.

I'll check to see if that's a known
issue and if not I'll definitely file a bug on it. The plan for dazips
was to have something that would "just work".

I have to admit, I
haven't tested this system myself with a retail install yet. Here at
work I've got dazips associated with an archive manager instead, since
I need to open them up and rip them apart to see what's in them more
often than I need to actually install them. :)

Edit: I just
found a bug report in our tracker that claims that a bug with this
symptom was fixed in patch 1.02. Do you have that patch installed?


I should have 1.02a installed, although it doesn't seem there's any confirmation of that instead of a plain old 1.02.

According to the config utility:
DAOrigins.exe: v1.02
DAOriginsLauncher: v1.01
DAOriginsConfig.exe: v1.03
Uninstall Dragon Age.exe: v.103

I'm using the N. American DVD version on WinXP Pro SP3, if that makes any further difference.

Edit: Assuming nobody'd mind, I wonder how bad it would be to supply a copy of DAUpdater.xml relative to your DAZIP package so it works that way - at least in the meantime. All the XML file is is a DAUpdater string table for English, Spanish, Italian, French, German, Czech, Hungarian, Polish, and Russian. Create a ZIP file to contain your DAZIP in a subfolder - call it something meaningful - and have a "data" dir at the top level containing DAUpdater.xml. All that matters is $CWD/../data/DAUpdater.xml.

For reference, here's a screen shot of the error dialog when you double-click a DAZIP - the updater program doesn't run except to give you that dialog and then exit.

I've reopened our bug report on this, since apparently it's not as fixed as we thought it was. :(

We'll track it publically here: http://social.bioware.com/wiki/datoolset/index.php/Bug:_DAUpdater_needs_to_be_run_from_the_bin_ship_folder
