This is a codex/missive overhaul for Dragon Age: The Veilguard which takes into account some of the choices you made in Inquisition. I have endeavored to maintain the meaning and tone of the codex entries while adding or modifying flavor text for better immersion and world state accuracy.
Unzip the main mod folder.
To obtain the version that best suits your previous world state, navigate through the folders by double-clicking on the ones which correspond with the decision(s) your character made in Dragon Age: Inquisition.
- First, choose your Inquisitor's last name.
- Second, choose who was elected Divine Victoria (Cassandra, Leliana, or Vivienne).
- Third, choose the ruler of Orlais at the end of Wicked Eyes and Wicked Hearts. The options are Empress Celene or Emperor Gaspard, regardless of whether or not Briala is ruling alongside them. If a public truce was declared, the official ruler is Empress Celene.
- Fourth, choose what happened to the Grey Wardens at the end of Here Lies the Abyss (whether they were banished from Orlais or stayed to help the Inquisition fight Corypheus). After you double-click on this folder, you should see a .fbmod file. Click and drag it to your Frosty Mod Manager, or click Add Mod(s) on Frosty Mod Manager to add it. Then, apply it to your mod order. See PinkyDude's written tutorial on using wavebend's alpha Frosty Mod Manager release for Veilguard if you have not yet installed it.
This mod will likely cause conflicts with any other mods which change Veilguard's text strings (such as other codex or missive mods), though you are of course welcome to edit the text strings yourself. I have also included the .fbproject files for easier editing.
Please feel free to change the text in any way you'd like for personal use, though if you are looking to upload a mod of your own using my codex or missive entries, please contact me first. Thank you for downloading!
