EA Account Log-In Issues
If you are having issues logging into Dragon Age: Origins with your EA account it is most likely because the game does not support special characters (like "#") in your password.
You will need to change your password and remove those special characters if you want to log in.
Popular Mods
Skip The Fade. In the Mage's Tower quest there is a section called "The Fade", this is known to be an incredibly annoying section as you must perform the actions in it in a specific order. There is no hint to this order and as it is a 'puzzle' section, you often wonder if you are failing to solve the puzzle or are working in the wrong order. This mod skips the annoying bit, gives you the benefits of having done it, and allows you to jump to the more interesting parts.
Console font is the file that is often missing from the install data. Install this to make console commands visible.
Errors
If the game gives you the error "Failed to find supported Video Card driver", open the 'configure' window from the patcher and disable Fullscreen mode. You can activate Fullscreen from the options in-game.
