So I bought DAI for the PC, and I've been playing it off and on. I have all the DLC, including the Spoilers of the Avar and the Qun packs.
Anyways. After more or less clearly most of the areas of the game. I decided to check out the Jaws of Hakkon. Loads up just fine, get through the first cut scene.
And then it freezes.
Okay, Ctrl+Alt+Delete, restart game. Same issue. Instant freeze as soon as I get passed all the loading screens.
Shut it down again. Go to Origins, Repaired the game. Didnt reinstall my mods. And tried again. Works fine. Get passed where I was stuck before. Decide that I will go ahead and save and try the mods again.
Merge Mods, load game. it freezes again. Okay; no mods then. Repair the game a second time. Dont install mods, start up. It freezes.
Game seems to work fine outside of that area.
Basically; the DLC seems to be broken for me. And I dont know why or how to fix it. And would love some help.
Frozen Game in Jaws of Hakkon (1.08 - PC)

It's the mods that don't play nice with Frostback Basin. I actually have 2 sets of mods, one set that has everything I normally use, and one set just for FB. Since patch 8, FB doesn't like PJ mods, loot drop/resource mods, or a couple others.
Also, from your description, it sounds like you are doing something with the merge folder after its made?
Edit: Also, if you are at 1.08, that means you are on patch 7, not patch 8 (v1.09).

Arg. I'm on patch 8. My bad. I'm used to the v.1.## being the same as the patch number.
There is no merge folder any more. I've also repaired the game twice now. And my last attempt was with no mods what so ever. Still freezing.

Load a prior save before you went to FB? Are you using a merge of just the official patch when loading your modded save games (without mods)?

Uhh... no? I'm just using the base game with DLC... let me try merging it just with the patch.

The problem loading save games that were saved while using mods is this...
Offical patch version in the mft for patch 8 says Version = 9. When you merge mods, the merged folder says Version = 10. If you try to load a save that was made while you had mods , the save file will require Version = 10 in order to load or you get a nastygram telling you to update your game. If you simply delete the merge folder and dont remerge just the official patch, you won't be able to load your current save games.

See thats the thing though. It was loading. And I got no error messages. It just it would freeze as soon as it came out of the final loading screen when I regained control of my character

Are you renaming your merge folder to "Patch" and replacing the real "Patch" folder?

Oddly enough, no. My mods all worked with out me having to do that step for some reason. So I just never bothered.
That said. making a merge file with just the official patch seems to have worked.

I was just making sure you were NOT renaming the merge folder and replacing the normal Patch folder.

I suspected as much. if you're going to be in JoH for a while, go ahead and merge a patch with a couple mods at a time, excluding the Qunari mods, any PJ mods, and any enhanced loot/resources mods. You should be able to run some mods in FB.
