Steam Ver. of Dragon Age Origins and Dragon Age 2 cant load mods

Ive been at this for a couple days now, but when trying to load mods on the steam version of DA: Origins ultimate edition or DA 2, I constantly get this error:

We’re having trouble loading the mods into your game. Try Restarting the game, or pressing help for more info.

Ive uninstalled and reinstalled both games, as well as wemod multiple times, manually added the exe files to the custom play section in the steam and EA versions section as well. Im not having any issues running mods for games like days gone or baldurs gate 3, and it doesnt seem to be an issue with the EA app, as I can load mods for mass effect Legendary edition just fine there. Would anybody have any insight or solutions that I could try?
