🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since it's a simple mod, just drop the files into your Dragon Age: Inquisition mod folder (usually Documents/BioWare/Dragon Age Inquisition/Mods).
Use the Frosty Mod Manager if you're on the latest version—it's the standard tool for DA:I mods and will help manage load order.
If you're using other mods that affect facial expressions, test this one last to ensure it doesn't conflict.
🔧 Troubleshooting
Mod conflicts
Check load order. Disable conflicting mods one by one.
