Thank you again for your interest and I hope that you enjoy the mod and it adds to your game.
They are compatible and I'm not sure why it saying they aren't. I don't use ModManager so don't know anything about it. But you can use both without any problems.
EDIT: I just looked into the mods files and I guess I found something that may cause DAOModManager to think they aren't compatible^^ They both have "arr-chargens_bank00.fsb" and "arr-chargens_bank00.fsb.seq" I honestly have no idea what these files do xDD I use mods gladly but I have not a clue of creating them^^ but since you said they are compatible I'll just let DAOModManager complain and just try it out xD Thanks again for your reply :)
Ohhhhh.... now I understand why it's complaining. That's a mistake on my part. Those are files from my Alistair's Revised Romance mod which I abbreviate 'arr.' That file shouldn't be in either one of these mods but since It I did all of them it got in somehow. However it only affects ARR, and won't cause any problems with either of the other two.
I really love this mod. But for some reason, after it played once, the scene does not play again for any of my recent play throughs. Is there something I'm missing for the scenes to play properly?
Check the conditions on the description page to make sure that the playthrough meets the requirements (including the one that the love interest is in the final party). Also check the compatibility section for the files that the mod uses and make sure there are no other copies of those files in your override folder (best to use 'search' function).
Hello, what is the possibility that you can do a scene with Morrigan ... Ritual and then transform it into a wolf or an animal and disappear from the tower as promised ...
None. As I have said before, that's completely unlike the scene here, so it would have to be done from scratch and that's a lot of work just to show her running off, especially for a character/romance I'm not all that interested in. So I wouldn't have a good idea of how to even do the scene. Besides at this point, I'm not actively modding and don't even have the game or toolset installed. So, yeah... not going to happen.
You break my heart T_T !, to see I give you an idea it can be the same scene only that she arrives and sees the guard moving but still semi unconscious ... she gives him a kiss ... she lowers her sad head and moves it in signal of denial ... look at the Dead Archidemonio, he touches his belly and then he transforms himself into a wolf or into a bird or into any animal and he leaves ... I would like something like that, sadly I do not know how to do it since the set of tools is in English and I do not master that language well ... I'm using a google translator to write ... but it would be good for an update of your mod ...
No, that's right. You will need a mod that allows the warden to sacrifice themselves instead of Alistair either the Improved Romance mod or my mod Alistair's Revised Romance: https://www.nexusmods.com/dragonage/mods/4460
I was thinking about replaying DAO and browsing some youtube vids when I came across this mod! Needless to say I immediately rushed over to download this! Awesome work, thank you!
Also if its not too much trouble, could you point me in the direction of the female hairmesh you used in image 16 - Ritual Alistair 2. Thanks again!
You're welcome and hope you enjoy your playthrough.
As for the hair, it is one of risibi's but I don't remember the name and I'm pretty sure it was only available on one of her blogs. I don't have the game installed right now and can't check. Sorry I can't be more help.
Neither. The videos are from the toolset and not actually in game footage. The reasons I did that was that I didn't want to have to kill the archdemon the two dozen times needed to get all the videos, even with cheat codes still takes a while and there is a risk of odd darkspawn getting in the way. After having two videos ruined by oddly placed darkspawn corpses, I decided this would be easier and faster. But don't worry the sky will be correct in game.
Hi there, can I install this in the middle of a playthrough ? I think I won't ask Alister to do the BR, and I saw this scene in so many videos that I though it was in the vanlla haha I'd be so sad to not see Alistair hug the body of my dead warden ;A; (like this game is not already heartbreaking enough)
Yes. Now probably it only needs to be installed before opening the door to get to the roof to fight the archdemon but anytime before the final battle and you should be fine.
I just like making people cry, in a good way of course!
OH. MY. GOD !!! Thanks you !! I'm going to install this like RIGHT NOW !
Thank you a lot ! :D
I saw you made more mods like this one, I'll probably install them too when I'll begin another playthrough where I romance Alistair ! :D (He's the best !)
It worked perfectly, thank you !!! :D I finished the game for the first time yesterday. I'm still crying but it was beautiful. A thousands thanks !! <3
Oh Maker, I just got my heart ripped out and handed to me!(T_T)Your mods are very well made and add so much emotion. Bioware's version of the narrative wraps-up too quickly provides no catharsis or closure. Thank you for creating this needed moment with your mod.
Thank you glad you enjoyed it... in a having your heart ripped out sort of way. :) I guess it says something when that's an improvement on the vanilla! LOL
You are very welcome. I am happy that it gave you some, as you say much-needed closure and added to your game. Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a comment and let me know you enjoyed it!
Morrigan doesn't leave before the battle if you do the ritual, she leaves after. I think it would have been appropriate to add a scene with her if she is in love with the Warden and he did the Ritual with her, before she takes off. Just me though. Mod looks great. I might have to try this. :-)
But right after and while having a scene with Morrigan if in love and doing the ritual might be appropriate what exactly would she be doing?
She says goodbye at the gate and makes it clear she is leaving as soon as the battle is over and not planning on seeing the warden again. So you get a shot of her... leaving... maybe casting a final look back... I guess but the problem is that scene is so unlike the rest that I'd have to create the scene from scratch and there isn't enough of an emotional pull or the interest on my part to put forth the work necessary for just a last look. Especially since any Morrigan romancers get Witch Hunt to tie up their story. So not going to happen.
Hi. Very nice mod; this is how the Ultimate Sacrifice should've been! The vanilla game version is lame; they seem to think everyone is doing the DR.
Just finished a human noble PT where my female Cousland romanced Leliana. The only odd thing is that during the cutscene, there were Darkspawn standing like statues next to the corpse of the AD. Perhaps an indication I killed the AD too soon? **edit: Just read the description more thoroughly and that's basically what happened; dead AD, frozen Dark Spawn. **
Just curious; how difficult would it be to add the "In Uthenera" song to a scene like this? I.e. having a grieving Leliana singing the song over her fallen lover? Given the lyrics of the song, I always thought it was more or less a death dirge.
There is a definite bias in the game towards not only the dark ritual but a male warden romancing Morrigan (to prove the point just take a look at how the dark ritual was handled for anyone not romancing Morrigan... yuck! )
Yeah, if you kill the AD too quickly, i.e. before the darkspawn, you get dazed and confused darkspawn who just stand there, shocked that their god is lying dead before them and are too stunned to even run away. At least I think that's the best way to look at it.
Adding music isn't very difficult but adding all the animations that go with it is, the singing, facial expressions, camera shots, etc. which is all very tricky and time-consuming to get right. Then having to add a special version just for Leliana complicates the scripting.
However story-wise, I really think that she'd be more overcome with shock and grief at the time. I think in DAI she even says something about how it caused a crisis of faith. So, the song with her singing it might be better for the funeral.

the scene can display with a no romance playthrough or only works if you are in romance with a companion?
