- Permissions and credits
-- Install ---
Install .dazip with daupdater.exe.
-- Configuration ---
Add the following lines to your DragonAge.ini found in Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age\Settings:
[xatmos]
=ForceOrigin=DalishElf
=ForceOrigin=CityElf
=ForceOrigin=ElfMage
=ForceOrigin=HumanNoble
=ForceOrigin=HumanMage
=ForceOrigin=DwarfNoble
=ForceOrigin=DwarfCommoner
=ForceClass=Rogue
=ForceClass=Warrior
=ForceClass=Wizard
Then "uncomment" the lines for your desired origin and class (remove the equal sign at the start).
i.e. To play a Dwarf Mage and start in the Circle:
[xatmos]
=ForceOrigin=DalishElf
=ForceOrigin=CityElf
=ForceOrigin=ElfMage
=ForceOrigin=HumanNoble
ForceOrigin=HumanMage
=ForceOrigin=DwarfNoble
=ForceOrigin=DwarfCommoner
=ForceClass=Rogue
=ForceClass=Warrior
ForceClass=Wizard
Then create (or import) your character (a dwarf for this example) as you normally would, choose any class, background, skills, etc.
You will be respecced automatically once you get in the game if you force a class other than the one you choose during chargen (as long as you don't click Quickstart).
Optionally, you can uninstall the mod at this point.

-- Known Issues ---
[Fixed, hopefully] After editing the .ini, the buttons in daupdater.exe will be blank but still work, very weird. I'm going to leave this to BioWare to fix.
