(I copied this from arcticwoof but I just changed the manifest lol. also added additional instructions for Linux and macOS)
- Press WIN + R on your desktop to open the run menu, then type
steam://nav/consoleor open a browser and pastesteam://nav/consolein the address bar (latter is easiest method for macOS, Linux, etc) - in the console, paste this:
download_depot 322170 322171 7903404280228366327
2b. if on macOS:download_depot 322170 322172 6862317728889446455 - Wait for it to complete, This could take a few minutes
- navigate to
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\contentand go into thedepot_322171folder, this contains all the game files, basically just the gd folder but with a different name.
4b. if you're on macOS, in Finder, go the top-right bar: Go --> Go to Folder -->~/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/content(atleast i think it's there).
4c. on Linux it's most likely in~/.steam/steam/steamapps/content - Once you are in the folder with the game files, create a text file called steam_appid, open it, and type
322170, and then save. - Install Geode and BE SURE TO CHANGE THE INSTALL DIRECTORY TO THE DEPOT FOLDER
- After Geode is installed, You are now done and can open the game.
- (optional) If you want to transfer your existing mods from the latest version, drag and drop the folders **DON'T INCLUDE DLLs/EXE IN THE LATEST VERSION, JUST THE FOLDERS ** from the 2.207 GD version into the
depot_322171folder (2.206). Be sure to drag and dropgeodefolder into the downgraded version. You can also drag other folders for other mods.
