How To Downpatch PC Version
3 years ago
Texas, USA

Hello, recently it has come to my attention that in one of the newer releases of DBZ Kakarot (not exactly sure which one since there were 2-3 updates between my last run and they don't make patch notes) there was an update that makes the ending of fights significantly slower than earlier versions of the game. So this is to serve as a guide on how to downgrade versions on Steam.

  1. Have .NET core to use the DepotDownloader tool (simple google search for ".NET core download" should bring to you Microsoft's website)
  2. Download DepotDownloader from github (this is used by other speedrunning communities, the method to download old versions via Steam console does not work anymore) https://github.com/SteamRE/DepotDownloader/releases
  3. Once you have downloaded and extracted DepotDownloader, navigate to folder in a cmd window
  4. Once in the directory where DepotDownloader is extracted use the following command to download DBZ Kakarot version 1.10 the username and password will need to be replaced with your own (if you have 2FA it will prompt you for your key in the cmd window after running this command) (additional command documentation is in the README located in the folder with DepotDownloader)

dotnet DepotDownloader.dll -app 851850 -depot 851851 -manifest 6028075188618766858 -username testuser -password NotMyPassword123

If you wish to download a different version of the game you can search for a different manifest using steamdb.

  1. After it is downloaded the depot will be in a folder where you extracted DepotDownloader. Copy these files into your Steam/steamapps/common/<game name> folder. Please note saves on current version will not be usable when you downgrade.

If you want some additional details there are quite a few guides either in other communities or by searching on Youtube/Google, this is mainly meant to serve as quick details as to the values for the depot/manifest that will get a more speedrun friendly version of this game.
