Skyrim Updated to 1.9.. : V

» Sun Mar 24, 2013 7:46 am

First, sorry if this is the wrong place for this.

Second, I'm a little pissed.

I have Skyrim set to "Do Not Automatically Update This Game" in Steam and I also "Opt Out of All Beta Programs." I restart my computer earlier today and a few minutes ago I clicked on my "skseloader" which is how I run Skyrim.. since Steam wasn't opened upon the restart, it opened Steam which then proceeded to update my TESV.exe to version 1.9.32.0.

I run quite a few mods that I know are not updated for 1.9. Some may not need to be.

Anyway, without going into a long rant about this.. I have a copy of the version 1.8 TESV.exe and the Update.esm in an archive. Has anyone successfully reverted back by just copying them over? I noticed some files from the "strings" folder were also updated by the patch. I really don't want to deal with any incompatibilities from my mod list.. which I included below.

Or has anyone updated to 1.9 with a modded game with no problems?

Any advice or help is appreciated.

Practically all mods don't care if Skyrim is updated. So stop worrying about it.

The only resoiurces that most likely will not work with a newer runtime/Update.esm are:
SKSE is updated anywhere between 0 minutes to 2 hours of beta->release.
The Unofficial patches, around the same time frame.
Script Dragon, well, who uses that now anyway?

btw, "Do Not Automatically Update This Game" only stops the game automatically updating, it won't stop the game checking if it's out of date, and then updating, when you run it
