SMM U8 Rollback Progress
For those who have used SteamDB's depot repository to download back to Update 8, you may get an error about not being able to find the steam directory for the game.
At this time, there is not currently a known fix, best to just play through steam (as this launch an instance of the game you can use to play around while rollback progress is made)
Posting this because I'd like to contribute to the rollback patch to SMM

(Known issue
TargetRename1.0 / smmsteam1.0 / Temp1.0PluginFailedToLoad) 1.0 has renamed the game target, preventing SMM from being able to automatically uninstall mods.
1. To remove mods, delete the FactoryGame/Mods folder from your game install directory manually. Here's how to find the game install directory: https://docs.ficsit.app/satisfactory-modding/latest/faq.html#Files_GameInstall
- SMM still won't work! You have to launch the game from Epic/Steam for now. Close SMM and don't use it again until we announce that mods are updated.
- If you are still having issues, also delete the Plugins folder then verify your game files to restore it: https://docs.ficsit.app/satisfactory-modding/latest/faq.html#_how_do_i_verify_my_game_files
- If you're still having issues, make sure to post text or a screenshot of the next type of error you get!
-# Responding to smm1.0 triggered by @Quantum Pickle JarAFAIK SMM 2 isn't being patched, it's being replaced by SMM 3 once modding is ready for 1.0
Ooh! That sounds exciting, I'll try to follow #sml-development. Next on my list is UEVR Enhancements :3

Anyway, dev work doesn't belong in #help-using-mods - you should have access to the developers channels
Solution
mod manager work is in #mod-manager-dev
Ty!
