What an excellent response to my first or second post and I have now installed a bunch of mods, mostly aesthetic with one or two practical ones. Specifically:



Storage Chest

Morrigans Robes (Lith Maethor, you are right, they are special - look fantastic)

Winter Forge

Shadow Armour - wow that looks really cool.

Detailed ToolTip



I am still considering Dialogue Tweaks and need some better clothes for the other lady in the game, but not found anything yet.



I have tried to keep to the aesthetic ones so that I can still pursue my love of tweaking stuff while not altering the game so I can play as Bioware intended. Though I suspect if Bioware didn't intend it to be modded they wouldn't have allowed it, so I am not going to worry to much about that.



In the course of learning mod lore, I got to thinking about backing up and transferring the setup to my lappy (DAO on the go is definitely a plus!), I have created a folder under the Documents\\Bioware.. with shortcuts to the various ModManagers:



DAModder

DAO-Manager

Bioware's own daupdater.exe



I simply synched this folder up and volia it works. Very pleased indeed.



After doing all this of course, I had to play it to see how it all looked and worked, hehe, yes it was a late night.



DragonNexus is so very much better organised than here on Bioware. That goes for better controls on the forum as well. I still haven't managed to suss where to find the list of my subscribed topics on here). I agree Bioware could have added some better browsing and a 'What's New'.



As for you shameless plug folks, I will journey to your parts and have a look see. Now that I have got the management/backup sorted it is trivial to turn mods on and off.



I am very impressed indeed what a lot of mod authors are doing, really impressive and seems many go to great pains to explain what their mod is doing so your installation doesn't get stuffed. Thank you.

The only problem that really bugs me is that some aren't organized into their own subfolder so you end up with lots of files in the override and you don't know what they're for especially if you extract more than one mod at once.

Then you just create your own sub-folder for that particular override modification, even if it only contains as single file.

It should be worth revisiting this site later in the year, as some substantial community campaigns are in the pipeline. DAO looks set to follow the tradition established by NWN and NWN2 for well-made community adventures.

I play on a 50 inch screen and the font size UI tweak is a freakin' lifesaver for my eyes.

I use a bunch of mods. The new Divine Skill Tree mod is absolutely amazing and I have a bunch of cosmetic mods.

[mousestalker]

I play with mods. I typically play through the first time in a game without any mods and then tweak the game from then on. With this game I really haven't had any game-breaking experiences or bugs so the mods I've used have been mostly cosmetic (Pineappletrees is great!) or convenient (camp storage chest). I'm going back and forth on installing Winterforge. I like the idea of modifying item appearance a lot, but I know myself. If I can alter an item's stats in game, I will. And that simply will ruin the games enjoyment in the long run.

What I'd really love are better looking light armours. An enamel or lacquered look would be great, realistic and non-game breaking.

The dialogue tweaking mod is definitely a 'must have'. It fixes many minor bugs and adds a few neat options (that, again, are not game breaking).

The respec mod and storage chest mod came in quite handy so far. Recently installed the Open Lock Spells mod and must say wish I found it earlier. Not using a rogue in my current party, only used Leliana to go back and open locked chests before ... what a drag. This Open Lock Spells mod does not feel like cheating, as you have to sacrifice at least 2 other mage spells slots and it has Arcane Bolt as a prereq.

[Krucible]

Respec mod, Natural bodies (I'm a big boy, I can handly it), Morrigan v15 (I think), Better hair (Don't Worry, Be hairy, it's called)....



And the recently released dog mod, which adds your Mabari to the slot normally reserved for summoned animals. So you can always have your dog and three other charcters. Frankly, this is the way the game should have been from the beginning.





What's the Morrigan's robe mod? Been looking for a good one. Any links?

Personally, I like this one. It certainly shows less side boob than the others, but it also doesn't look like it's going to fall off at any moment. I'd rather just have a modified version of her robe that removed the cowl altogether, but I haven't seen one yet.

I use too many to count

Considering how popular those *ahem* mods of a more "mature" nature are, you'd think we'd be getting more people talking about those. I get a feeling there are a couple of people not entirely divulging the full extent of the mods they are using

[ModerateOsprey]

Yup, that's the one I use sometimes.



I also like this one:



http://social.biowar...m/project/1019/



I like the addition the of tattoos - none on her face, thankfully.



I would really like some different clothes. I have two rogues in my party and would prefer them to be clothed rather than looking like something from the Battle of Hastings. Got the shadow armour - that looks excellent, but you can only have one party member wearing it - pity.



Got respec, but haven't used it as so far I am happy with my build(s), but I just know I will want to reverse something later.

I saw the personal harem and bigger boobs mods and just chuckled.  I can see using the boobs one but the harem I just don't understand.

I didn't install one yet but changing the way undies look (or removing them altogether) was a good idea and some of the mods look really good.  The stock underwear for both males and females looks really dumb.

I had the same concern for myself with the Winter Forge.  Turns out all I do with it is combine the helmet stats with whatever armor I'm wearing for the main character so the dumber looking helms (light helms and mage cowls) go away.  I've also used it to change the colors/materials of mage robes so no game breaking stuff so far. 

And yeah, new better looking light armor would rock.

I tried the Better Sex scenes mod recently. But there was something a bit....eeeeeeh...about virtual BJs.


I can't believe I forgot the Personal Annoyance Remover and Circles Be Gone (to remove the rings around people's feet). I'm a screenshot-a-holic, so those are a must for me.

[Rolenka]

Use them? I create them!

Well, a few minor ones which nobody really uses.

I like No Kill Steal though. Get XP for anything that dies, no matter who killed it. It's on my profile.

Heh, I like the way you expressed that. I remember thinking the exact same thing looking at the screens for it (haven't downloaded yet, but I definitely puruesed the image gallery on the Nexus)

Lol! I actually went with that because I can't come up with the exact words I want. I have to say though, they were very well put together, composition wise and execution wise. I'm just not sure if I'm gonna leave it, lol.
