Rrezz Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Cdante has a mod called Fallout4.exe Auto-Backup that backs up the .exe file, allowing you to hold off on updating the .exe until F4SE is updated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hard8 Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 I found a exe of mine from August 2016 from one of my drives and installed it with the corresponding (F4SE) from there archive and my game had no ability to exit and ctrl+alt+delete was the only way to quit the game and in Vault 111 it was flashing on screen so badly I thought I was going to have a seizure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mizeryschild Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 (edited) Hi Guys, ran into this problem myself would someone have an fallout4.exe they could post before update. I tried using the method using steamDB but could to with a better tutorial to explain how to rollback version. Any help would be great. Jonny1. go here: https://steamdb.info/app/377160/depots/ Take note of the app ID for fallout4. (377160)2. click the 377162 ID number and take note of it.3. click on the manifests tab.4. copy the manifest ID for the november release5. completely close steam and make sure you exit it from the system tray.6. create a new shortcut to steam, leave the quotation marks on, but add -console to the end of the target. It will look like this:"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\Steam.exe" -console7. reopen steam using this new shortcut and click on the console tab.8. in the text box at the bottom, type this: download_depot 377160 377162 64495132581003644299. press enter and let steam finish downloading. it will tell you where it saves the file. open that directory.10. go to your fallout 4 directory. for me this is \steam\SteamApps\common\Fallout 411. rename the existing fallout4.exe to fallout4.old12. copy the new file from step 9 into this folder.13. launch the game using f4se. enjoy.

BruceBanner2010 Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 I didn't download the patch today and loaded the game via the f4se_loader and it updated my game ! I thought loading the game via the f4se_loader let you bypass the game updating ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ERROR260392 Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 When the update does come, Do we need to uninstall and reinstall F4SE completely or is there another way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teahousefox Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Well, I followed the video and got the previous version of fallout (1.10.50), logged out of Steam, replaced the .exe, and loaded the game using F4SE. It got rid of the error indicating that the game version didnt match the F4SE version. Yay, right? Unfortunately, when I go to load a save game, it indicates that the game contains mods, and mods have been disabled. Is this message normal? It sounds like the error is gone, but F4SE isn't working still. The Settings screen in the main game menu still has the right version, 1.10.50. The only thing I use F4SE for is to turn achievements back on while running Sim Settlement, so I guess I'll just chill until F4SE is updated :sad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: Figured it out. I was launching the game incorrectly after rolling it back. I'm squared away now :thumbsup: Edited January 25, 2018 by teahousefox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
