Fereldan Adventurer for HM

Limited Use. Frosty Only. Read the Description Thoroughly!

This is a Skyhold PJ Replacer for M!Trevelyan. Be Carver Hawke! Kind of. “Limited Use” means it only works in Skyhold and Haven - meaning if you try to strip down to your PJs outside of these areas, you’ll turn into a floating head. I figure if that’s the worst that can happen, and you’re like me and sick and tired of those basic PJs after 4 years and would like to run around Skyhold in literally any other item of clothing, then this is a mod for you.

Some rules of thumb to follow:

Safety first! Keep your armor on outside of Skyhold and Haven. You never know what might jump out at you.

Swap to a different outfit via the wardrobe ( outerwear, formalwear, or armor ) before the following cutscenes that leave Skyhold: entering the crossroads with Morrigan; pursuing Kieran into the Fade with Morrigan; and ( possibly? unsure of the locaton ) reading poetry to Cassandra for her romance scene. Additionally, be mindful if you’re using mods that change plot flags to unlock content not normally available to m!trev.

Additional Notes:

Provided as-is. If it’s not loading or crashing for you, there’s not a lot I can do to fix it, since this is a hacky method and seems to vary from person to person whether it works in their game.

fbproject files have been provided in case anybody better at this than me wants to try and get these working outside skyhold. I can’t get any superbundles to load outside of their default areas without crashing or infinite loading.

Don’t try to use it in Trespasser.

You can still use this with a pj texture replacer. The pj texture will still show under all of the light armor models in the game, which use a different mesh.

If you’re really wanting to keep to your Fereldan aesthetic both on and off the field, and are willing to use Frosty and daimods together, Multiplayer Schematics and Crafting by Anhamirak may provide you with some options.

Big thanks to electricfish for the tutorial that explains how to do this.

Below the cut: detailed instructions on how to use frosty mods and daimods together, if you’re like me and there’s daimods you can’t stand to give up but you love what frosty can do:

You can get Frosty tools here.

Before doing anything with Frosty, first merge all your daimods like normal and get everything the way you want it.

Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Dragon Age Inquisition\, or wherever your game is installed.

In the UPDATE folder, grab the folder labeled ‘patch’ and back it up somewhere safe, like your desktop or documents. Do not skip this step. You will need it later if you need to change your daimods.

Delete ‘Patch’ from the UPDATE folder and rename ‘Patch_ModManagerMerge’ to ‘Patch’. This is your new patch, so that Frosty can read it the right way.

Now open Frosty Mod Manager. follow whatever instructions you need to to set it up, then choose your mods you want to add via Frosty.

Hit ‘Launch’ and the manager will apply your Frosty mods and launch the game. You’re ready to go!

You must launch the game via the Frosty manager each time you play in order for your Frosty mods to appear in-game. You can put a shortcut to Frosty Manager on your desktop, or even better, change your Dragon age: Inquisition shortcut to point to Frosty Manager ( right click > properties > shortcut > change the “target” field to whatever’s the file path for your frostymodmanager.exe )

If you need to change your mods:

Always delete the ModData folder in C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Dragon Age Inquisition before you change your Frosty mods. It’s weird, I dunno why, you just gotta start over from scratch each time.

To change your daimods, go back to UPDATE, change ‘Patch’ back to ‘Patch_ModManagerMerge,’ and put your backup ‘Patch’ file back in the folder. Then you can go back to Mod Manager, change your daimods, and follow the above steps all over again.

Hello new folks following me!! thanks for your interest. I’m working on some EF outfits next ( the apostate and alienage ones ), they’re technically ~done~ but my files are all disorganized because I’ve been playing with a bunch of different combinations of them so I need to fix that.

Alternate Dirthamen Vallaslin

Daimod format. Replaces the Dirthamen Vallaslin with a more minimalist version if you’re into that. Will affect all NPCs with this vallaslin (i.e. Inquisitor Ameridan!)

Version 1 // Version 2 // Version 3 // Version 4

Peasant Dresses for HF

Limited Use. Frosty Only. Read the Description Thoroughly!

This is a Skyhold PJ Replacer for F!Trevelyan. “Limited Use” means it only works in Skyhold and Haven - meaning if you try to strip down to your PJs outside of these areas, you’ll turn into a floating head. I figure if that’s the worst that can happen, and you’re like me and sick and tired of those basic PJs after 4 years and would like to run around Skyhold in literally any other item of clothing, then this is a mod for you.

Some rules of thumb to follow:

Safety first! Keep your armor on outside of Skyhold and Haven. You never know what might jump out at you.

Swap to a different outfit via the wardrobe ( outerwear, formalwear, or armor ) before the following cutscenes that leave Skyhold: entering the crossroads with Morrigan; pursuing Kieran into the Fade with Morrigan; and the “lucky coin” cutscene for Cullen’s romance. Additionally, be mindful if you’re using mods that change plot flags to unlock content not normally available to f!trev.

Choose only one dress at a time. They will override each other and/or conflict.

Additional Notes:

Provided as-is. If it’s not loading or crashing for you, there’s not a lot I can do to fix it, since this is a hacky method and seems to vary from person to person whether it works in their game.

These are NPC outfits and thus not always the best quality. There’s a hole in the mesh on the front and back chest portion of 01 that becomes more obvious depending on factors like lighting, and there’s a gap between the head and body on the back of the neck on 02 that you can see if you’re wearing a short or pulled up hairstyle, but I’m not the boss of you so I’ll leave the decision up to you whether you want to use them despite these issues.

fbproject files have been provided in case anybody better at this than me wants to try and get these working outside skyhold. I can’t get any superbundles to load outside of their default areas without crashing or infinite loading.
