Stargazer09 Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 (edited) Steam is telling me there's a new update for the game. Anyone knows if it's minor or major (hence requiring a new version of F4SE)? Edit:Ver 1.8 so I guess a new version of F4SE is needed. Fallout 4 1.8 Update Fixes Fixed an issue in which some sound effects would not persist after reloading in an area Resolved an occasional crash when exiting to the Main Menu, and trying to start a New Game Fixed an issues with spaces in Mods search queries Cannot rate “WIP” Work in Progress Mods, and Mods can now only be rated after they have been downloaded Doubled the amount of browse-able tiles in the Mods menu Fixed a rare crash that would occur when a Mod had an unexpected data structure Fixed an issue in which Library and/or Favorite Mods categories would not display correctly in specific situations Fixed an issue in which some Mods images would not load when scrolling quickly A Sentry Bot firing dual Gatling Lasers will no longer cause the audio to cut out Edited November 9, 2016 by Stargazer09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chucksteel Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 Yes, it is a big update too, changes a lot more then just the .exe and launcher. It adds to many of the .ba2's. Edit: The yes was Yes it needs a new F4SE. :wallbash: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levantinium Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 (edited) Oh boy. Before I fire up Steam, what files should I move out of the folders to avoid the update overwriting them and undoing any of my changes? I messed with some ini settings, but most of it was to enable modding. I don't have F4SE, though. After this, I will have to keep a note of what I'm modifying for future reference. Also will this affect the unofficial patch/invalidate it/make it incompatible/cause issues? Edited November 9, 2016 by Levantinium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stargazer09 Posted November 9, 2016 Author Share Posted November 9, 2016 I can't help you much Levantium, except to share that for Fallout 4 I disable auto updates on Steam. Been burned too many times already.Maybe what you could do is to fire up Steam then pause the update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chucksteel Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 Well it seems F4SE has already updated. https://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/3370945-wipz-fallout-4-script-extender-f4se/page-49 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levantinium Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 This is a beta update, is it not? I didn't receive an auto-update for it, and I had that enabled for Fallout 4. Also I don't see an option to disable updates for this game. It is either always up to date, only when I launch the game, or include beta updates.

chucksteel Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 no it's a full update, Kind of ninja'ed because Gstaff originally said it was beta but it wasn't. He then corrected himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This prevents the game auto updating when you start Steam, and you'll get a notification next to the game that there's an update available.Caveat: as I use NMM to launch the game via F4SE, my game will never update without my permission as F4SE bypasses the launcher.I'm not sure what would happen if you launch the game normally.

Bernt Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 Another way of keeping from being ambushed by updates is to play off-line. Steam will still update every now and then but no game updates are forced on you. My game is locked just before the 1.5 wreaked havoc on everyones games. I miss out on some things. But on the other hand my game runs rock-solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdaley1992 Posted November 9, 2016 Share Posted November 9, 2016 Has anyone else experienced silent crashes when trying to launch the game since the update? Or, seen/heard reports of it happening.It started happening to me immediately after the update and I can't seem to solve it for the life of me.Not an F4SE user, and only run 30 odd plugins - none of which I'd think would cause this issue.
