As much as I'd love to be able to change the main menu so the title matches, I think this is beyond me. I managed to do it and edit the dds files, which I found in guiexport.erf but it looks like putting anything from there into the override folder messes up the party's portraits and all health bars. Even putting an unedited copy of guiexport.erf into the override folder screws with those elements. Damn shame, but I've done all I can at this point. Hope you enjoy the opening title at least.
Most likely I won't get an answer, but it's better than nothing: How can I change the name of game? I just like both names, so I'd like a double name (just for myself): Dragon Age II Exodus
Not sure if the modder is still active here, but I was wondering if you could help with something. I'd really like a mod that covers the email address on the bottom left corner of the title screen. I stream Dragon Age and I'd love to cover my email for privacy. Typically I just wait until loading the game before showing my screen, but I'd like to have the security of knowing that it won't show up at all even if I accidentally show the title screen. Would you be interested in making this or showing me how to do it? How were you able to modify DA2 files? I have the DA Toolset for DA: Origins, does that work on DA2 as well? Which file(s) correspond to the main menu screen? If you could point me in the right direction that would be great. Thanks!
Playing this Game in 2021, Exodus fits much more then 2. Hoping Dragon Age 4 isnt called 4 but rather something that ties into the game. Excellent work my friend. THIS IS WHAT MODDING IS ALL ABOUT!!!!
This mod in itself makes more sense than what BioWare had in mind even. It is funny that we have Dragon Age: Origins > Dragon Age: Inquisition and now Dragon Age: Dreadwolf (4th installment pre-production).
While this one is just Dragon Age 2. So for me this is a very nice touch, sure the name could be anything really, I felt like it could be Dragon Age: Champion since we play as Hawke who becomes a champion. Or something like Dragon Age: Pathwalker as you walk the path towards something and in the end becomes a champion which is a path in itself.
But Exodus is nice name too and I like it. So honestly even if it is just such a small mod such as this, imo it is still worth just installing it for it "feels" better seeing that instead of Dragon Age 2.
Giving it the original name changes everything, it becomes the expansion that BioWare intended for Origins. I hope EA self-destructs and BioWare frees itself from its ghoulish clutches, so we'll have games like Origins again.
coming in real late to the party to say THANK YOU. when I learned that exodus was the original title and there was even official title art of it that hadn't gotten used, I dreamed of finding or making a mod like this, but either this was before you uploaded this (I can't remember) or I didn't look hard enough. I was so happy to find this mod! thank you for making & sharing it!

I'm still salty about the fact they wouldn't call it Exodus.)
Will endorse as soon as allowed. (Tested and works, if anyone is curious).
