How to download and install Fallout London mod on Steam

If you own Fallout 4 and all of its DLCs or the Fallout 4: GOTY Edition on Steam, then downloading and installing the Fallout London mod is still possible but requires a few extra steps. This is because you need to have the pre next-gen (Fallout 4 1.10.163.0) release of the game in order to do so. Most players will therefore have to downgrade their copies of Fallout 4 to the pre next-gen version of the game. This is possible thanks to a handy downgrader tool provided by Fallout London mod developer TeamFOLON, enabling you to downgrade Fallout 4 with a few button clicks. Simply download the downgrader tool and follow the instructions located in the download folder.

How to downgrade Fallout 4 manually

If you own Fallout 4 on Steam but want to downgrade versions manually, then rolling back to the 1.10.163.0 version of Fallout 4: GOTY Edition is still doable but a little more complex. Begin by typing steam://open/console into your browser, prompting Steam to open the console. Once the console is open, you need to download each part of the previous Fallout 4: GOTY Edition version by typing the commands below into the console: To download the content for each of the DLCs that you may own type these commands (having these DLCs is necessary to play Fallout: London): Once you’ve completed this step, these files will download into your Steam library folder(by default it is “C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\content\app_377160”) in separate depot folders. The Fallout 4 executable file would be in a folder named “depot_377162”. Next, create a new folder on your desktop, and copy the contents of each of the above folders into this new folder, overwriting files as you go. Once complete, you have constructed the entirety of the previous version of Fallout 4: Game of the Year Edition. Congratulations! Now, simply delete everything in your current Fallout 4: GOTY Edition installation folder and replace it with everything in this new folder on your desktop. Next, locate your Steam app manifest file for Fallout 4, which is called “appmanifest_377160” and is normally found in the Steam apps folder, typically located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\appmanifest_377160.acf.Right-click on the appmanifest_377160.acf file and select properties before setting the file to read only, which is done by ticking the read only tick box. Now press OK to confirm this choice. This will remove Steam’s ability to update the game automatically by any means. Though be sure not to accidentally update the game through Steam yourself.

How to install Fallout London manually or through mod managers

Now that you have downgraded Fallout 4 and downloaded Fallout: London through GOG, you can manually install the mod if you want to run it through a mod manager program of your choice. Start by locating where GOG has downloaded the files to. On my machine they are located at the following file path: This PC>SSD (E:)>GOG>Fallout London. Here you will find the installer, F4SE, the Data folder, and more. Keep in mind you will have to install Fallout 4 Script Extender (F4SE), done through either the F4SE files located in the install folder or on the Silverlock website. The next step is to zip the Data folder and install the zip as a mod in your preferred mod manager: This PC>SSD (E:)>GOG>Fallout London>Data It is strongly recommended to use the .ini files that are also included in the Fallout London mod from GOG. You can either replace the .inis in your Documents/My Games/Fallout 4 folder or you can add the .inis and their settings to your preferred mod managers’ ini editor. These ini files can be found in the _Config folder, located at: This PC>SSD (E:)>GOG>Fallout London>_Config Looking to find out what year Fallout 4 is set in?
