Overview
Some users (like myself) experience an issue when upon trying to start an Awakening campaign, they just get an error message saying “The module DAO_PRC_EP_1 is missing”. Here’s a fix.
Premise
The first thing that should be noted is that guide won’t help you if you can’t see Awakening in the New Game or Other Campaigns menu in the first place. To fix that issue, go to this thread.
This guide is for if you’ve encountered the weird error message “The module DAO_PRC_EP_1 is missing” and you tried all of the other fixes you can find on the internet and nothing seems to work.
It turns out that you actually do have Awakening installed properly, the game just doesn’t know how to run it. Fortunately, the fix is incredibly simple.
Fixing your game

- Copy the module folder.
- Navigate to DocumentsBioWareDragon AgeAddInsdao_prc_ep_1. There shouldn’t be a module folder here.
