True true....well what do you expect. They're going "mainstream". Too bad....Bioware still make good stories.
Every studio has they're brightest star so i guess theres would be BG2. You can only go downhill from there.

Different system though there is a batch file and it's easy to update it manually as it's rather simple.

The one I have now looks like.

@echo off
dedaodrm.exe DAO_PRC_CP_1 45125944
dedaodrm.exe DAO_PRC_CP_2 50994487
dedaodrm.exe DAO_PRC_CP_3 33570360
dedaodrm.exe DAO_PRC_CP_7 76182747
dedaodrm.exe DAO_PRC_NRX_1 31703536
dedaodrm.exe DAO_PRC_PROMO_1 46273226
dedaodrm.exe DAO_PRC_PROMO_2 50541655
dedaodrm.exe DAO_PRC_PROMO_3 27533262
dedaodrm.exe DAO_PRC_PROMO_4 42614735
dedaodrm.exe DAO_PRC_PROMO_5 69838294
dedaodrm.exe DAO_PRC_PROMO_C2 59782400

dedaodrm.exe DAO_PRC_GIB 13422531
dedaodrm.exe DAO_PRC_GIB_DAO 13274568
dedaodrm.exe DAO_PRC_GIB_EP1 64728459

echo Decryption done.
pause

And is placed alongside the decrypted in the \Addins\ folder, not very elegant but very simple.

Thanks JB, you're a star as always! Got tired of messing around with "drag and drop" scene versions, that almost always fuck up the entitlements file.

It is very easy to use and nice but it's mostly based on what others have done and posted before though, unsure who created the original utility (Or found how to calculate MD5 or what it was of the DLC's for the decrypt keys.) and what has been changed or added or created in the meantime but it works despite it's rather simple implementation via that batch file, nice work. Smile
(Hopefully something similar can be done for ME3 and DA2 as well when time comes for that stuff.)

Nah, they just figured out those paying for these dlc's are stupid enough to eat anything and those not paying don't deserve better. Very Happy

I didn't bought the game because it was obvious that they're going the DERP way sooner or later. Even though, the game deserved to get bought. But! It doesn't matter anyway because, if you use your brain, it isn't a surprise. DA1 would be a DERP game too if it weren't ported from the PC to the Derpsoles. DA1 wouldn't be the game as we know it if they had developed it mainly for the console as they do it with DA2 now.

PS: I'm sorry for my bad engrish but I hope you guys get what I'm talking about Razz

I had frequent crashes with 1.04 (at least when playing new golem DLC), in similar instances as with 1.03 (some area/aura spells would crash the game randomly).

Game is stable here, played all official DLC's and are replaying Origins plus one final turn in Awakening after that, lots of little mods active as well like new dungeons to test out and smaller tweaks and replacers.

I get explorer freezes every time I exit the game after prolonged play. Using latest 1.04 patch, + all DLCs. Also the performance isn't top notch.

Things are okay for me with 1.04 and every DLC. The new Golem DLC is a big piece of shit though. No surprises there.

To be fair, you could argue that the aerial view is actually a very meta construction, and that to be a true rpg, you should have only a pared down version of it. As a tabletop roleplayer, I've had GMs who will turn around and say "Well, you don't know if you can hit that enemy with a spell until you can see them". Contrast this with the first DA:O, where you could place AoE spells in such a way that unseen enemies in an unexplored area could be killed by the spell (Blizzard, for instance). I still really like the aerial view, but as long as there's some version of it, I'll be happy.

It could also be an excuse for the console transition. Did we ever see the exact amount of copies sold on each platform? I remember only seeing the total number...

Oh and saying "mainly" with two consoles against pc...so basically pc version(IF it's true) sold better than either console version?

Just curious how good (or bad) are the Leliana's Song and the Golems of Amgarrak DLC?

The first one does provide some interesting backstory to Leliana though you'll know most of it if you talked to her and kept a positive relation to her but it's still a rather OK story though not very long and very linear, Golems is a higher-level dungeon adventure but aside from some fancy color effects there's not much to it, new enemy to fight but very short and not much to explore (And it does feel very similar to exploring the Dwarven story arc from the main game at times.) though for free it's OK. Very Happy

Ofcourse, that daodrm.exe file or other utility will allow the files to be processed and used by any version of the game.
(Latest patch recommended though, 1.3 might even be required for some projects and certain DLC do have extras that also span into Awakening via bonus items upon completion, also adds proper support for any new achievement.)

There was a guide to it all a page or so back and some people have links to it in their signatures, fairly simple to get it going.
(The daodrm utility I use works via a simple .bat file even but full exe files with GUI's and such might also exist.)

EDIT: Easiest is to open the DALauncher.exe utility (Or was it DAupdate.exe?) and then drag and drop all the DLC .dazip files to it and install, it'll be placed in C:\Users\YourUserName\Documents\Bioware\Dragon Age\Addins and you'd also place the .bat and daodrm file here and run the batch file to decryp any encrypted content.

Then go back one folder and into another folder called settings, open it and change authorization=1 to authorization=0 lines when found, sometimes the file layout gets a bit screwy but it's still rather easy to do by a search for say auth and change any =1 to =0 instead. Smile
(And that's all, just start the game and check the addins to see if it's active and running.)
