I just keep getting "There was an error when trying to load game using specified profile." is there a fix to this?
New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be cast
I use origin, so if I just downgrade to that version of origin and launch the game should it come up in the frosty editor?
so meaning steam users cant use frosty editor?
I bought it over fifa 21 steam, when I want to open the frosty mod manager, I get There was an error when trying to load game using specified profile. "What is the reason for this?
Launch ORIGIN, launch STEAM, in origin select the Steam version of Mass Effect Andromeda, right click and go to Game Properties > Advanced Launch Options.
In the command line arguments insert your path to Frosty Mod manager executable. Then launch the game through FMM as per usual and get back in the action.
In the command line arguments mine looks like this - F:\Program Files (x86)\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Mass Effect Andromeda\FrostyModManager
If you change mods in FMM you must close Origin. Then launch through FMM.
Hope this fix helps those like me when the other fixes did not.
EDIT 06/DEC This fix may no longer work, try your luck and check the comments for trouble shooting. All the best CMDR’s
