Is the Downgrade Patcher needed for Creation Kit on older game versions?


Recommended Posts

I want to install Creation Kit for Fallout 4 and Steam is the only way I can since no one posted it to Nexus or elsewhere like they do for past Bethesda games. Problem is my game doesn't have the next gen update installed so Steam will probably try to install an updated Creation Kit if it can even install it with my app manifest file set to read only for FO4.

I see that the Downgrader mod for this update has settings regarding the CK & no one has been able to answer me on the mod page or Reddit so I'm asking here: Do I need the Downgrader to make CK work with Fallout 4 even if the game is not on the next gen update? If yes, can I run the Downgrader WITHOUT it touching my game since it's not even updated?

You can't post Creation Kit to Nexus - it's copyrighted material. 

Only thing you should see on the Nexus is fixes - which don't post the .EXE.

 

buddy im not asking to upload it so why are you even bothering with that? did you read the title of the post or beyond the 1st sentence?

im asking if I need the downgrader mod to make CK from Steam work on fallout 4 when it doesnt have the next gen update installed?

Um..actually, the MW and OB Construction sets and the FO3 G.E.C.K are still hosted on this site. Bethesda didn't change their hosting policy until Skyrim.

The updated CK will not work with the previous version of the game so the answer is yes, you need to downgrade the CK.

thnx for the actual relevant answer! do you happen to know if I can run the downgrader on JUST creation kit since my FO4 is not even updated? or if I can install CK through Steam outside of FO4s game folder?

Yes. Since you failed to be clear, the OP took your statement as an insinuation that he was wrong about previous games and that he was suggesting someone upload it. I felt the need to point out that he was not wrong about that. That is all.
