Great and Clear expanations though i might add if you installed the game from EA, not origin or steam then to find your dragon age files its in Program files(NOT Program Filesx86) and its inside EA games

The game should be removed from steam until they can get it working. If you pay $30 for a game it should work without having to use 3rd party mods just to get it to not crash every 2 minutes.

So, that first link under pre-patched is done for you. No need to download and run the NTCore patcher. That's if you want to do it yourself (hence the DIY mentioned there). Backup the current exe you have, because backups are a good precaution in general :P Then replace the exe with the patched one. The thing I read from another user that helped me was to pin the actual exe to start, and run that directly. I tested this 3 times, keeping my game on max graphics, and had no issues getting back in. I was crashing in freaking Lothering, and my DA Redesigned mods are glitching even on full Medium.

@@KattycatJane that's really unfortunate. I have a feeling that if Bioware wasn't owned by EA, these issues would've been fixed. All three games can be purchased on steam right now for ten bucks (total, not each), which would be a great deal, but I decided to stay away from all of them after reading about so many issues with the games and their stupid launcher, which shouldn't be necessary. Supposedly, The Veilguard won't require their dumb launcher so maybe I'll play that one when it comes out. I just wanted to play the others first so I'm pretty disappointed that they can't be bothered to fix the issues.

If you are only crashing once in a while, I would start with the affinity fix aromg 2:20 and see if that stops crashing altogether. Most people have had success with graphics at low which does take away from the game but unfortunately in my experience was the only way I could play but my crashing happened every 5 minuets so hopefully since your is less often the affinity might be what you need to help stop the memory leak. Also, I very much agree this should be fixed by the devs since they are still profiting off the game, but they have known of these problems for years and have not seemed to care much.

Appreciate for help, of course, but you don't need to do all those steps. Set textures in mid (or low) and this problem will be gone, this specific problem is related to setting texture quality on high, and in certain zones like Ostagar even in mid quality crashes happen. Don't worry about the other game video options. I don't know if any mod solve this issue, i haven't found anything about.
