Can someone dropbox the old patch files? Or how can we downpatch to the old version?

They patched out at least jungle skip, so if someone has the old patch backed up, can you put it into dropbox or something and link it in resources (and ping me).

ok, figured it out, couldn't really tell which files were the patched ones or not (and I dont feel comfortable uploading the entire game to google drive), so here's how to downpatch in 2020.

go here: https://github.com/SteamRE/DepotDownloader you need this external program, it's dumb. create a .bat file within it (new txt file, change .txt to .bat, google how to make the .txt show up if it isnt already), name it what you want. right click edit that file in notepad, put the following:

dotnet DepotDownloader.dll -app 953490 -depot 953491 -manifest 8256888781793129267 -username YOURUSERNAME -password YOURPASSWORD pause

then save. the pause (on a new line) is unnecessary, but if you double click that .bat file and it doesn't do anything, it'll tell you why, for me it didn't recognize dotnet as a command and I had to download NET core from microsoft. Google the error message and you'll find a stack overflow page or something with the answer. Of course, replace with your steam username and password you use to log in.

double click the .bat file you made. If the file runs, you will need to enter your 2 factor authentication password, then it'll download the depot to the folder you have the depot downloader program in. Take all the files in there that dont say depot downloader on them (should be the content folder and below) and replace the files in c>programfiles(86x)>steam>steamapps>common>Carrion

I also went into c>users>teddy(or whatever your username is)>appdata>locallow>phobia>carrion>_steam(a bunch of numbers)>saves and deleted any saves made after august 9 when the new patch came out just to be safe, but not sure if that's necessary.

if it works, the new versions will say 103-release-101-gaacc44a3 (idk if the letter arre correct, the 101 is the important part). that's the old patch. the new patch is 1.0.3-RELEASE-140-gaacc44a3 (they suck ass at patch names). but yeah 101 instead of 140.

that took forever to figure out, this shit dumb, you're welcome.
