Rompster69 Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 O.K., please forgive me if I'm not fully mod literate! I hated the new Fallout 4 Update, so I followed instructions to roll it back and then installed a mod that tricks Steam into thinking I am running a fully updated Fallout 4 game (so it doesn't automatically download the update again). It was all going great (with the the 0.6.23 version of F4SE and about 10 other mods, from Classic Holstered Weapons to a looksmenu mod and so forth). Then today (May 14) Vortex updated itself, and now suddenly I can't launch the game (from Vortex) as it says that the newest version of Fallout 4 that I'm running is not compatible with my version of F4SE. How do I disable this warning and launch the game anyhow, since I'm not actually running the newest version of Fallout 4? I already tried disabling the Vortex managed mod that tricks Steam into thinking I have an updated game, but no dice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickysaurus Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 You should be able to just update F4SE or start the game via Steam instead of Vortex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rompster69 Posted May 14 Author Share Posted May 14 I tried both options -- game would not launch in either case. I know that during the rollback process, I did overwrite one file in the game folder, so I suspect that might be playing a role here. But for several days before the Vortex update, everything was working fine when launching from Vortex. I've now uninstalled the game and uninstalled Vortex, and when the game finishes downloading I will install the older version of Vortex (with no auto-update) and do the rollback of Fallout again, along with the older version of F4SE, to try to get everything like it was.

Pickysaurus Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 I've moved this to the Fallout 4 forums as it's not an issue with Vortex and the game not starting is something to do with you mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worm82075 Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 You don't need to launch with Vortex or any other manager. Simply create a taskbar shortcut directly to F4SE launcher. Note: When rolling back Fallout and F4SE copying over the existing files is not enough. Delete ALL F4SE files(easy if you let vortex install it for you) and for Fallout the creation club files must be removed and maybe some others, also best to delete all before copying over the new files.
