How to install mods using both DAI Mod Manager and Frosty?

[Maria]

So I'm a recent Dragon Age fan, played all of the games and loved them so I decided to move on to Dragon Age Inqusition and as soon as I hit the character creation..Yeah it hit me hard when I saw how ugly the characters are and no matter how much I tried it was impossible to make at least a decent looking character that I would be able to look at without vomiting, I watched a tutorial on how to install DAI mods and installed a few using the Mod Manager (Keep in mind the only game I ever modded before was Fallout 4) but only the hairstyle mods worked, then I wanted to install some complexion mods using Frosty instead and it didn't work either, can anyone please guide me, an absolute modding virgin, on how to install mods using both the Mod Manager and Frosty?

I've read many folks who have had problems running DAIMM and Frosty together. Bear in mind that DAIMM is no longer in active development, and that Frosty supports many--not all!--DAIMM mods.

If I might suggest it, uninstall DAIMM--you can always reinstall it later--install Frosty, and see if any of the DAIMM mods you're using make Frosty choke.

Note that Frosty often throws an information-only exception on DAIMM mods that says something like "Caution: this mod was designed for another version." This can safely be ignored, right now I have nearly a dozen DAIMM mods I'm using in a Frosty-only environment and I've never had the slightest problem.

I realize this is not the question you asked but I suggest you consider it as an alternative to running both mod programs side by side.

BTW: there are lots of things that won't show up, e.g. scars, if you're not running the game under "Ultra" settings, even in an unmodified vanilla environment.

Thanks for the suggestion I'll see what I can do, and honestly main reason why my characters at least look..Not bad but not the best is because of ultra settings lol.
