Modding With Patch 7 FOR BEGINNERS
Please note that the modding community for Inquisition is still in its infancy, and most mods are still considered to be in an 'alpha' state. This means you risk permanently messing up or losing parts of your saves. Use caution, and understand the risks.

Guide to modding for beginners

Disclaimer: Use mods at your own risk. Make backup saves first. If you break your game, it's not the fault of the creators of DAI Mod Manager, or the mod authors, or this guide.
Update: There's a new version of Mod Manager with improved JoH compatibility, link is in this post.
First you will need a place to install DAI Mod Manager. Create a folder somewhere outside of program files (so you don't have to mess with administrator privileges). I just put a folder called 'DAI Mod Manager' inside 'My Documents'.
Create a sub-folder inside it called 'mods'. This is the folder where you will place your mod installation files (more info on that step later). You should now have a '../My Documents/DAI Mod Manager/mods' folder.
Download the latest version (currently v0.52alpha) of mod manager here. Thank you /u/Zhentar!
Now you should have a 'DAI Mod Manager v0.52 Alpha.zip' file downloaded. You may need a program to extract the files if you don't have one already. If so, 7zip is free and easy to use.
Double click on the .zip file and it will open up in a new window. There are two files inside (DAIModManager.exe, and zlib.net.dll). Drag those two files into the 'DAI Mod Manager' folder that you created in Step 1.
Now it's time to download some mods! Download any mods that you want. Extract those the same way as before, but place them inside the 'mods' folder that you created in Step 2.
Once you have all the mods that you want extracted to the mod folder, it's time to run Mod Manager so you can actually add them to the game. Click on the 'DAIModManager.exe'. (If your computer is giving you warnings or not letting you run it, you may have to run it in administrator mode. To do this, simply right click on the .exe, and select 'Run as Administrator'.
When Mod Manager opens you will need to point it to your Mod Path (which is the 'mods' folder that you created in Step 2), and your Dragon Age Path (which is the place you have DA:I installed, 'C:Program Files (x86)Origin GamesDragon Age Inquisition' by default).
Underneath the paths is a list of all the mods that you extracted to your 'mods' folder. Double check that all the mods you want to install have an [x] next to them. (They should be checked by default. If you don't want to install certain mods in the list, highlight them in the list and click the 'Disable' button at the bottom left. They should now be unchecked.)
Click the 'Merge' button on the bottom right corner. Mod manager will run. When it's finished, click 'Close' on the little window that pops up.
Congratulations. You can now play a modded game. Have fun!
Adding additional mods
If you decide to add more mods later (to your already modded game), all you need to do is extract them to the 'mods' folder, open DAI Mod Manager, and click 'Merge' to create a new merged patch.
Removing Mods
Kuttyweb download. If you decide that you want to remove a mod, first you will need to either delete it from the 'mods' folder or uncheck it from the mod list in Mod Manager. Then you need to run 'Merge' again to create a new merged patch.
If you want to remove all the mods and go back to a vanilla game, you have to delete the 'Patch_ModManagerMerge' folder inside your 'Dragon Age InquisitionUpdate' folder. This will break your save!
Oh no! I decided to remove all of my mods by deleting 'Patch_ModManagerMerge' and now I'm getting an error 'This save data was created with a newer version of the game. Please download the latest patch and try again.' message. What do I do?
This is because modding your game creates a sort of fake patch that is one version number higher. You'll need to edit the original patch to make it appear one version number higher.
- Navigate to 'Dragon Age Inquisition/Update/Patch.'
- Right-Click on the file 'package.mft' and open it with Notepad. (You may need to right-click on it, select open, choose 'select a program from a list of installed programs', and select 'Notepad'.)
- Bump the Version # up by one. (As of Patch 7 it should say 'Version 8', change it to 'Version 9'.)
Updating Mod Manager
If an update for DAI Mod Manager comes out. All you need to do is download the update, extract the files to your 'DAI Mod Manager' folder, and let them overwrite the old files. Your 'mods' folder will not be affected. Free wifi calling for laptop.
