RedHeadedStepChild Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Need way to roll back client version So, I can roll back my LAN server no problem, but I would like to roll back my client to before the Genesis update. We are having way to many problems right now, and just want to play on our LAN server pre-Genesis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedHeadedStepChild Posted March 1, 2020 Author Share Posted March 1, 2020 Okay - update -did some more digging. There is a way to do this but it requires that you have a backup of your old client version files. This Steam post from way back led me to the way: https://steamcommunity.com/app/346110/discussions/0/523890681427670761/#c517142253860867391 tl;dr 1. set Steam to only update when game is launched 2. restore backup of old client version 3. make a desktop link to the file ShooterGame file in Steam (usually Steam -> SteamApps -> common -> Ark ... or the like) 4. start the game from the desktop link you just made - do not launch through Steam Note: you will need Steam to be running, but do not launch through Steam. Still testing this method, but seems to work. Also just saw this post: I would make a strong suggestion that everyone that agrees up-vote/like it.
