=================
Installation
=================
1. Download this file.
2. Unpack it with Winrar and move the single file to C:\\...\\Dragon Age\\packages\\core\\data\\movies\\ Note: The folder may not already exist. It works fine if stuck straight in the override folder as well. (Thank you, Shamikka, for testing this.)
3. Open the settings folder in C:\\Users\\Administrator\\My Documents\\BioWare\\Dragon Age\\
4. Open DragonAge.ini file with notepad, or (preferably) Notepad++
5. Modify the [MOVIES] section to look like the below. Note: There should be two settings in 0 and 1. If you wish to keep those (not recommended, since it\'s annoying), simply move the video.bik to 2.

You may use this as you wish but you must credit \"sorron\" and me (in case you use this video) for our work and time.
Please do not re-host this file without my explicit permission.
This file was made by me using content already done but mixing and improving it with envolving music and eye-candy effects. I used \"MAGIX Video deluxe 17 Premium Version - Video and Audio Editor.
Converted the video from .wmv to .bik (using Rad Video Tools) and worked out how to make it work in the game (following \"sorron\" instructions).
I encourage everyone to make his own version and share it on this site! Keep the franchise alive.
