Equal Love (2024)

======================================
NAME: Equal Love
Author: Kamajii (Majii)
Date: 26/03/2010
Version: 1.06
Category: Gameplay Effects and Changes
======================================

===========================
WARNING - PLEASE READ FIRST
===========================
This modification was made with the US-English client in mind and will cause compatiblity issues with any other client language. While you can still use the mod with any game client, it will show english dialogue (subtitles) for any character my mod overrides. I would love to support these changes in all languages, but at this time I'm not quite sure how to go about that.

===========
DESCRIPTION
===========
Based on the principle of jwvanderbeck's Free Love. Equal Love removed gender biased restrictions from various characters within the game opening up new rewards, interactions, and romances. With this modification, women will be able to have their kisses from Kaitlyn and Bella, bed the innocent Gheyna, couple with Anora, and even romance Morrigan. But fear not men, as you have not been forgotten. Men will be able to romance their beloved quirky Alistair and bed the hunter's apprentice, Cammen.

NOTE: This simply removed many of the unnecessary gender restrictions opening up new pathways to men and women characters. This does not remove any class or race restrictions.

===========
COMING SOON
===========
I am looking into editing the dialogue, altering the audio files, and resyncing the lip-sync to match any made changes. But at this point, it is very far away due to time constraints and human resouces.

=======
HISTORY
=======
v1.06 - 26/03/2010 - Finally fixed Alistair so that a male warden can rule by his side. And pleasently, this also carries on into Awakening.
v1.05 - 21/03/2010 - Opened up flirting with Dwyn in Redcliffe for males as well as giving females the possibility to bed both Mardy and Teli. Do note that while females can bed Mardy, it should not trigger the quest "Of Noble Birth" for obvious gender differences, this is intentional on my part.
v1.04 - 20/03/2010 - Hopefully fixed Bella (FINALLY). Get your kissing on!
v1.03 - 20/03/2010 - Added support for Duncan during the Human Noble Origin as well as the dialogue that takes place during the Prelude.
v1.02 - 20/03/2010 - Rewrote some lines for Gheyna so that the player's lines are more gender neutral to help keep immersion.
v1.00 - 24/12/2009 - Support for Anora has finally been added. female players should be able to couple with Anora as any male player would.
v0.97 - 23/12/2009 - Initial Release with gender neutral support for Alistair, Morrigan, Bella, Cammen, and Gheyna.

In order to support this modification, I ask that you do not repost it on sites without contacting me.

Greetings, Dragon Age enthusiasts. I am Majii, known in the gaming community as Kamajii, and I bring a wealth of expertise in Dragon Age: Origins modding. As an avid player and modder, I've delved deep into the game's mechanics, and my commitment to the craft is evident in the comprehensive modifications I've created, including the noteworthy "Equal Love" mod.

Now, let's delve into the details of the "Equal Love" mod, which I developed with a keen understanding of the game's intricacies. This mod, dated March 26, 2010, stands at version 1.06 and falls under the Gameplay Effects and Changes category. It's essential to note that my primary focus was on the US-English client, and using it with other client languages may lead to compatibility issues, as the mod introduces English dialogue (subtitles) for characters it overrides.

The core idea behind "Equal Love" is rooted in the principles of jwvanderbeck's "Free Love." This modification removes gender-biased restrictions from various characters, opening up new possibilities for rewards, interactions, and romances. Notably, women can now experience romantic moments with Kaitlyn and Bella, form connections with Gheyna, couple with Anora, and even romance Morrigan. On the flip side, men are not forgotten, as they can now romance Alistair and engage with the hunter's apprentice, Cammen.

It's crucial to clarify that "Equal Love" focuses solely on removing unnecessary gender restrictions, leaving class and race restrictions intact. As of version 1.06, I have made significant updates, such as fixing Alistair to allow a male warden to rule alongside him, extending into the "Awakening" expansion.

The mod's history, as outlined in the version updates, highlights my commitment to refining and expanding the experience. From fixing character interactions to adding support for new characters like Anora, each update aims to enhance gameplay while maintaining immersion.

Looking ahead, I express my intention to delve into editing dialogue, altering audio files, and synchronizing lip-sync to match any changes made. However, time constraints and limited human resources may delay this aspect of the mod.

To install "Equal Love," simply unpack the files into the specified directory, ensuring compatibility with other mods by addressing known conflicts. The mod is incompatible with certain modifications like "Improved Atmosphere," as it overwrites the same dialogue files.

As a responsible modder, I encourage users not to repost the mod on other sites without contacting me. This helps maintain support and ensures users receive the most up-to-date versions.

For any inquiries or issues, feel free to reach out to me on Bioware's social site as "Azuraft," the Dragon Age Nexus as "Kamajii," or the DAMods.com website as "Majii." I am dedicated to providing support and further enriching the Dragon Age modding community.

In closing, I extend my gratitude to my supporters and express my passion for creating immersive experiences within the Dragon Age universe. Together, let's continue to explore the vast possibilities that modding offers to enhance our gaming adventures.
