Ah that's unfortunate. Which distro?
They included Buffout 4 in the latest patch, so hopefully thus issue won't be affecting more players in the future
UHmm, that sounds rough.
Well, you can check the scripts of the tool yourself. They're all in the zip file you download from nexus. It just sends the credentials to the Steam API and uses the auth token for the rest. That's exactly what the Steam app on Android does. And it's also not some tool from a random dude, it's the official downgrader tool from the FOLON team. They even link it on their homepage. I get being paranoid with credentials, but in this case i saw no problem. Sorry for my rambling, but this "issue" is blown way out of proportion imo.
I just followed this guide
It's deck specific, but the deck just runs arch. The only difference from the guide was that i didn't used the gui .exe and just ran the .sh script in Konsole.
That's actually something i still have trouble with and i'm hit withe the "No Female" bug. Gonna try your suggestion for F4SE bug. I'm currently installing the recommended mods which are suggested in the downgrader tool.
Edit// installed GE-Proton 9-11 and it runs with F4SE, so thank you :)
What was your Problem? I installed it yesterday on my Deck fairly easy
Currently on rehab to get sober after 24 years. Views like this definitely helps a lot
Sure, you're welcome :)
Since the latest release was in June i guess they added the latest security patches. Click on the download link, it will forward you to the github page. And since this rom has OTA updates they definitely incorporate patches
Yes they do. At least the maintainer for the S8 releases them regularily. That's not something i would worry about. When the unofficials get a stable state they're fine and only get the latest patches from LOS. I'm running customs since 8 years and i never had problems.
I'm running the unoffical one on my Samsung S8 without issues since it's been released. Unofficial only means it's not supported and compiled from the LOS developers. They're safe and stable
Yeah, a lot of people are missing who made the tool.
I can just speak as a deck owner because i'm not at home till october, but heroic saves a lot of headache. Combined with SteamTinkerTools is was really easy to set up everything.
Do you use the UWS-Mod they mention on the downgrader tool Nexuspage?
