Ser Gilmore and Dog, companions in Awakening - Fully Voiced!




This mod brings Ser Gilmore back into the game as a companion party member to accompany you throughout the game.

Ser Gilmore is a Knight of Highever that appears in the Human Noble Origin. He was a Grey Warden hopeful but was left behind to guard the gates of the castle when it was attacked by Arl Howe.

You will find Ser Gilmore in LOTHERING, near the entrance to the Chantry.






In this mod you have...

  • More than 1900 dialog lines by Ser Gilmore! Pc initiated and Gilmore initiated talks; distributed throughout the game.
  • THREE different paths!! Friendship, committed romance (this is true love), or open relationship path (you can all have fun with other party members too) for both males and females. The three paths are different and lead to different endings!
  • Fun stories, gifts and interjections.
  • Different endings and epilogues.
  • Full voice over, cutscenes, face animation and what have you.
  • A NICE ending (for a change) :-) and continuity in Awakening.
  • Banters with all your party members! (fully voiced!)





As a player, you can choose...

* If you are a human noble:
  • Choose if you were friends or if you had a brief romance in your teenage years (until your parents found you kissing and were forced to separate).
  • Fall in love with him,
  • ...or have an open relationship,
  • ...or be his friend.
  • Relive your childhood memories! Remember how you fell in love!



* If you are anything else except human noble:
  • Get to know him.
  • Fall in love with him,
  • ...or have an open relationship,
  • ...or be his friend.
  • Find out about his family and his life at the castle!





Installation.

* DO NOT DOWNLOAD OR INSTALL WITH NMM! Download and install manually, otherwise the mod will not work!

1- BEFORE INSTALLING A NEW VERSION OF THIS MOD, UNINSTALL THE OLD ONE, AND THEN DELETE THE FOLDER Documents/BioWare/Dragon Age/AddIns/Ser_Gilmore_LBCI

2- Download the rar: Ser Gilmore NPC v3.1.1.

3- Unrar (right click - "extract here"). If for some reason it tells you a file is broken, use the WinRAR option to repair.
If you are a MAC user, download Ez7z and register it (cost $7) then extract both files.

4- The result is a file named Ser_Gilmore_NPC_v3.1.1.dazip, 428 Mb, and also a cc_core_200.dazip (Companion compatibility core v2.0) 564Kb. IMPORTANT! cc_core_200.dazip is OPTIONAL! Do NOT install it unless you really need it. Normally you will be able to play without it.

5- Once you extracted the .dazip files, you can either use daupdater.exe (in your Dragon Agebin_ship directory) or DAModder (which I recommend, and you can download from the Nexus).

6- Install Ser_Gilmore_NPC_v3.1.1.dazip. This is the main mod. Do NOT install cc_core_200.dazip unless needed.

7- The mod should appear as "active" on the in-game mods screen (otherwise, activate manually.)
