Dragon Age: Awakening; Silverite mines bug

[unhinged6]

I was playing the PC version of Dragon Age: Awakening and when I got captured in the silverite mines, My hero was wearing nothing but his skinny clothes. Now I thought nothing of this until I got to the drakes, when I couldnt find my hero's items anywhere, I looked up the wiki on this to find;

There is a bug where equipment, armor and/or weapons the Warden-Commander was wearing are unrecoverable after waking up in the Holding Cells. You will know the bug has occurred if the main character is naked instead of clothed like the others and only three Experimental Subjects spawn. It is advisable to save before entering the mines in case this does happen, as the only way to fix it is to reload the save and try again, or take off all equipment before entering. If you do that, you can then retrieve your gear from the chest beside Armaas. In some cases you will retain all items in your inventory, and only lose equipped items. Taking all items off each character has caused all inventory items to be lost in some cases. This bug has not been fixed on the PC version and still persists with the latest update 1.04. There is an unofficial fix for this issue.

now, I'm not too keen on unofficial fixes, so, can you get a real fix out there please, it's been quite a while since there have been any updates to my knowledge, and its bad when you come across a known bug that hasn't been dealt with.

Thanks!

It's been almost three years since Awakenings release.  It's been been over two-and-a-half years since the last game-play updates were made in patch 1.04.  It's been almost three months since BioWare announced no more DLC for DA2 as they turn their full attention to DA3.

TerraEx's "Awakenings Silverite Mines Bugfix": https://www.nexusmods.com/dragonage/mods/1762, (or other unofficial fix) is really your only option.

[EDIT:  Updated link to reflect change to Nexus Mods urls.  Thx @Fred_vdp!]

@m0135te12;  See my post from FOUR years ago, immediately before yours. That mod REALLY IS YOUR ONLY FIX.

It looks like Nexus Mods changed their permalink structure and doesn't redirect to the new URLs.
