I haven’t even been able to get it work using Nexus mods with my Steam version. I’m getting the intro screen/menu, but it never actually loads a new game after that. I’ll just wait a few months/years til I remember about it and try again.

I jumped through a lot of hoops and got it installed on Linux. I’m sure I’ll have lots of trouble with patches too.

Right there with you brother. That was not a fun experience.

I don’t have this problem because I have Windows snort

Windows is the new arch

NICE, which Windows are you using bro? I’m running 10 with a stock kernel and GUI, as well as a bunch of custom modifications, including a custom desktop*.

What was your Problem? I installed it yesterday on my Deck fairly easy

Not the guy toy responded but I can give my experience.
The first annoyance was downgrading Fallout 4. Now I know there’s a mod that can do it for you but I’m not going to stick my Steam credentials in some random piece of code. So I did it manually which wasn’t hard but it was annoying.
The second burden was getting F4se to run because for whatever reason I couldn’t launch FO4 without downgrading to wine 8.0.x. Luckily I found out glorious eggroll version of wine works with FO4 and actually starts F4se automatically.
But by far the biggest hurdle was the actual installation of Folon. I couldn’t get the installer to install the mod. I ended up unpacking the installer and manually copying the files into the FO4 folder.
Then I got the train bug and manually installed buffout. Then I got an XDI error so I had to manually reinstall XDI as well.
What’s the easier way?

Hmm, 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 thebdowngrader tool.

First issue was the downgrade failing to run because it claimed I was missing an ssh library. Then I found a work around that involved grabbing the uncompiled source and running the script from there, but that failed to connect to steam. I finally downgraded using a manual method that took forever, but it worked. Once I finally got it all running, I hit the infamous crash after the train ride bug.

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
