Was just about to finalize my Load Order when somehow after a crash my DLC.esm files vanished causing all of my mods to lose masters meaning I had to validate my game files......Unfortunately that meant my game was forcefully updated breaking all my hard work... I tried to use me .EXE backup but the game would no longer launch......I was at a loss....So glad this tutorial exists!!!! Also A suggestion for anyone in the future once you have a clean downgraded install CLEAN all of your DLC and CC content (use CC content picker to turn it into a separate file) then Create a Copy of all of your Skyrim files on another drive so you never have to do this again (just drag and drop the copy)

@circuitscore 2 месяца назад

Glad it worked! I know how you feel. I have messed up plenty of Mod loads in my day where Ive had to start from scratch. Not a great feeling! I should have mentioned the CC Content Picker in this video. If I ever do an update to this video I will add that detail. Also good idea creating a backup copy of the Skyrim files to another location. I do the same thing now just in case.

@Cwronaga216 2 месяца назад

@@circuitscore make sure the copy you create is after you've cleaned it so that you never have to clean those files ever again. Also it wouldn't hurt to pre-install Skyrim script extender and the latest e&b binaries into that copy so that you have a game ready for modding cleaned and preset up off the bat every time you start over

Good stuff thanks for the info. Do you need to download the 1.5.97 version of skse along with this method?

@circuitscore 19 дней назад

You can decided which version you want to run. The two most popular versions are 1.6.640 (works natively with legendary content) works with most 3rd party mods. The other version is 1.5.97 which is pre legendary edition that works with almost all mods but you will have to run best of both worlds and ESL backport support to get anniversary content to work.

@blade8424 Месяц назад

Should we back up our depots on a flash drive for future use in case we suddenly get a new PC or something like that just to be safe? So it can make it easier so we won't have to download it all the time? Or not recommended? Also good idea to turn automatic updates to "Only Update This Game when I Launch it" It SHOULD keep the game from FORCING Skyrim SE to AE. Hope this helps. Something I learned from another video when Fallout 4 pulled this BS. Mods got broken too. :(

@circuitscore Месяц назад

Its not a bad idea to backup those depot files just in case there is ever a day that Steam does not allow us to access the old files. You could also backup the game directory files itself after you downgrade. Good idea though! Might as well do both change the appmanifest files to read only and also "Only Update This Game when I Launch it"

Do you only have to start the game until the menu or actually start a new save game before starting the changing process? Kind of a hassle to go through the intro but will do if needed of course

@circuitscore 2 дня назад

Its recommended to start a new save but it will probably work with an existing one as well. You could also use a mod like Alternate Start to skip the beginning.

@karlpotat0896 2 месяца назад

hey so im trying to install some mods on MO2 (eg. Cutting Room Floor and Alternate Start), but i can't install them because they are missing the Fishing CC master. and when i go into the CC section in the main menu i can't access it while downgraded to 1.5.97. so when i try to launch the game with CRF and AS the game CTDs. i really want to use these mods but cant because i dont have the fishing master. please help

@helafinwe 2 месяца назад

Hey, does this process imitate the "BestOfBothWorlds" version that the Downgrade Patcher has? More importantly, can i use mods of any version with your method? EDIT: Nevermind, i just realized that I can backport it to 11640 and use the Downgrade Patcher successfully to downgrade to 1157. Thank you sir

@circuitscore 2 месяца назад

No problem! Its a different in the fact that in this tutorial we are just downloading the specific files for each version and replacing them. The downgrade patcher modifies existing files to spoof the game into being a lower version. Both methods work perfectly fine and can also be use in tandem with each other depending on what you are trying to achieve.

Hmmm that is strange. So I know that it wont let you download the depot files unless you own Skyrim. This is for the special edition and I dont believe it matters if you have anniversary addons purchased or not.

@maximolonghi9498 Месяц назад

no one else got an error when dowloading the second command for 1.6.640?

@circuitscore Месяц назад

Sometimes the depot commands will fail and you need to retry it a day later. Also make sure you have enough space on your PC. Even if it seems like you have plenty others have said clearing space on their PC helps allow the depot command to execute for whatever reason.

@ganyuwangsaff4781 2 месяца назад

can we actually download the depot file with idm instead? or shared from another computers?

@circuitscore 2 месяца назад

I don't think you can use IDM only in the Steam Console. Reason being is it needs to verify that you own a copy of it through Steam. Luckily though Steams servers are crazy fast. If you had the original files from another computer and owned it through Steam it should still launch. Ive copied the files to a new drive on my computer and it still launched just fine without Steam.

Make sure to wait for all depot files to download. It can take awhile. You will get a confirmation in steam console once the download is complete. Try to replace all files from each depot folder again. If none of that works backup your save reinstall the lastest update in steam and try to replace the files again. Additionally make sure you are using the correct SKSE64 for your version.

It should work on an existing install as long as its from Steam. If you run into any issues with it launching I would try a fresh install of the latest update and then downgrade. As for an external drive it should be no issue as long as you have it as a mapped install location in Steam.

No just that specific game. Each game in your Steam library has an app manifest files associated with that title use for updates. As long as you modify the file I showed in the video your other games wont be affected.

@augustuse.3071 21 день назад

I noticed you did not install the SKSE for the specific version of the downgrade. Isn't that necessary? Edit. can't get past the 'Play' Game Menu, Skyrim does not start the game

@circuitscore 19 дней назад

SKSE is necessary for certain mods. Fallout has a more strict Steam DRM where it wont let you launch the game from the official exe file without updating the game. Where as Skyrim doesn't have much for DRM so it doesn't matter. Make sure all of the depot files are fully downloaded before replacing them. I didn't show it in the video to keep it short but one of the commands took a little while to download.

Ok, i have a Similar issue, but not the Same entirely. You see, my PC doesn't have Internet, it's a fairly old PC, but can handle mods well, Only updates i am able to have, are ones that i can find on the Internet via my Phone. So do you perhaps know where i can find updates for Legendary Edition of Skyrim? I would really appreciate it! I want to update the game from Base tho, so i also don't know if I'll need every Update Before 1.9.32.0 or if I'll JUST Need 1.9.32.0 Either way, i would appreciate it if someone can help me to a site where i can download the Update files maybe.. Thanks!

@circuitscore Месяц назад

Sounds like you are trying to update a non Special Edition version of the game aka the Original version of Skyrim. I unfortunately only have depot commands for the special edition of the game. By the way you would still need internet even if I had the commands. All this process is doing is re downloading older version of the game and replacing the files. Same if you found version 1.9.32 on the internet you would still need internet to update your game.

@circuitscore Месяц назад

You can only access the creation store on the latest version of the game. You will have to update download what you want and then downgrade. Make sure to use the Backported Extended ESL mod from Nexus so you can load the creation content. Also check out the Anniversary Edition Content Picker to organize your Anniversary content.

I did figure it out. I also made sure to save all my favorite Bethesda mods individually on a flash drive just in case I needed to reinstall Skyrim for any reason. I will be able to just drag and drop them in my mod manager and they will be able to work just like any other nexus mod. I also made sure to download the Extended ESL mod. Everything is running smooth as butter now. Thanks.
