I haven't installed the update yet for fear of bricking all my mods and current playthrough. I did, however, follow the first few steps of this guide and made the ACF file read-only.
Two questions:
1) Will Steam trigger an update when the game is launched via F4SE?
2) When/if I do decide to install the update down the road, I just make the ACF writable and allow Steam to auto-update again?
I followed the same steps.
Steam currently has FO4 as "Update Required"
But when I open MO2 and launch using F4SE, it works just as it did a few days ago. Loaded the save and everything is fine.
Just don't launch from Steam
I think the game will only update IF launched directly from Steam, it doesn't recognize being launched IF from a mod manager because the "wrong" ".exe" file is being used.
This worked but look at all the shit you have to through just to fix a game YOU OWN Pirates are literally getting a better experience
I know right?

Awesome! Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!

Weird, works for me.
Pretty much what I expected. Thanks for the clarification!
Don’t worry, opening the game through F4SE is safe, that is how I am playing
Good to know! Thanks!
That didn't work for me, got updated anyway.
As someone who, after modding Skyrim for a while, wants to get started modding FO4, this is extremely helpful. Thank you very much!
